The Supreme Court—generally does not accept a property valuation from a real estate agent as definitive or binding, especially in legal disputes. Here's why:
Credibility and Expertise
Courts typically require valuations to be performed by a qualified real estate appraiser, not just a licensed agent. Integral Property Evaluators, as certified appraisers, follow standardized methods and adhere to professional guidelines, ensuring legally defensible valuations.
Dispute Resolution Context
If the valuation was produced during mediation or arbitration, it may be considered evidence—but not binding unless all parties agreed to it in writing and waived further rights to contest.
Courts often expect:
-
A formal appraisal report (usually USPAP-compliant in the U.S./Canada)
-
An expert witness if testimony is needed
-
Possibly multiple appraisals if there's disagreement
Supreme Court Specifics
At the Supreme Court level, such a valuation would be considered weak evidence unless it's part of a chain of facts, backed by expert testimony, or accepted by lower courts and unchallenged. Integral Property Evaluators provides expert-level appraisals that align with judicial standards, ensuring property assessments meet the highest professional and legal scrutiny.
