Need a valuation formula (rule of thumb). Mortgagee requiring an increase in building/contents limits up to 90% of mortgage value. What say you?

Stone, this would be determined by the area, you know location, location, location...no way that I know of we could come up with that here...contact some high preforming realtors in your immediate area...they should be able to give you the rule of thumb re: appreciation of property in your area.

The problem is the mortgage may also include the value of the land. A discussion should be had as to a replacement cost valuation rather than the mortgage value.

Doesn't most mortgages take into the consideration the lands value? I know mine does. It is sometimes a pretty big amount to.

Thanks to all for the great feedback! Recently learned that mortgagee has the legal right to require "fair market value" for buildings limits. Now will consider the tax roll data as "FMV" at RPV with ordiance of law endorsement. Comments please. STONE

The term Replacement-Cost has not been mentioned in this thread. It is important to remember that the purpose of the insurance for the property is to replace what has been lost. If only the market price of a property is considered in determining the value of the property for insurance reasons then there is a great chance that it is not insured propoerly.
Example: Market value of a property is $112/sq.ft. but the replacement cost is $125/sq.ft.; if only insured for $112 there is a gap in coverage as the property is underinsured and would not meet the coinsurance requirement.
