Property Investment Appraisal
Discover an insightful examination of the property investment appraisal process from leaders in the industry This book explains the process of property investment appraisal: the process of estimating both the most likely selling price (market value) and the worth of property investments to individuals or groups of investors (investment value). Valuations are important. They are used as a surrogate for transactions in the measurement of investment performance and they influence investors and other market operators when transacting property.Valuations need to be trusted by their clients and valuers need to produce rational and objective solutions. Appraisals of worth are even more important, as they help to determine the prices that should be paid for assets, even in times of crisis, and they can indicate market under- or over-pricing. In a style that makes the theory as well as the practice of valuation accessible to students and practitioners, the authors provide a valuable critique of conventional valuation methods and argue for the adoption of more contemporary cash-flow methods.They explain how such valuation models are constructed and give useful examples throughout. They also show how these contemporary cash-flow methods connect market valuations with rational appraisals. The UK property investment market has been through periods of both boom and bust since the first edition of this text was produced in 1988.As a result, the book includes examples generated by vastly different market states.Complex reversions, over-rented properties and leaseholds are all fully examined by the authors. This Fourth Edition includes new material throughout, including brand new chapters on development appraisals and bank lending valuations, heavily revised sections on discounted cash flow models with extended examples, and on the measurement and analysis of risk at an individual property asset level.The heart of the book remains the critical examination of market valuation models, which no other book addresses in such detail.

Does a lightning rod attract lightning?
A lightning rod does not attract lightning. Instead, it provides a path of least resistance for the lightning to follow, directing the electrical charge safely into the ground. The pointed tip of the lightning rod helps to ionize the air around it, making it easier for the lightning to strike the rod and be conducted away from the structure it is protecting. So, rather than attracting lightning, a lightning rod helps to safely dissipate the electrical charge of a lightning strike.
-
Is heat lightning as dangerous as visible lightning?
Heat lightning is not actually a different type of lightning, but rather a term used to describe distant lightning that is too far away to be heard, but still visible. It is not inherently more or less dangerous than visible lightning, as both are caused by the same electrical discharge in the atmosphere. However, any lightning can be dangerous, and it is important to seek shelter indoors when lightning is present, regardless of whether it is visible or not.
-
Can lightning also travel from the ground to the sky?
Yes, lightning can travel from the ground to the sky. This type of lightning is known as a positive cloud-to-ground strike, where positive charges build up on the ground and are attracted to negative charges in the cloud above. When the attraction becomes strong enough, a lightning bolt can travel from the ground to the sky. Positive cloud-to-ground strikes are less common than the more typical negative cloud-to-ground strikes.
-
How hot are lightning rods immediately after a lightning strike?
Lightning rods can become extremely hot immediately after a lightning strike, reaching temperatures of up to 30,000 degrees Celsius (54,000 degrees Fahrenheit). This intense heat is a result of the massive electrical discharge from the lightning bolt, which can cause the metal in the lightning rod to rapidly heat up. The extreme temperatures can pose a fire hazard, so it's important to regularly inspect and maintain lightning rods to ensure they are in good condition.

Does lightning strike if you don't have a lightning rod?
Yes, lightning can still strike even if you don't have a lightning rod. Lightning rods are designed to attract lightning and provide a safe path for it to travel to the ground, reducing the risk of damage to buildings and other structures. However, the absence of a lightning rod does not guarantee that lightning will strike a particular location. Lightning can still strike anywhere, but the presence of a lightning rod can help mitigate the potential damage.
-
Do earthworms die when struck by lightning in a lightning rod?
Earthworms are not likely to die when struck by lightning on a lightning rod. Lightning rods are designed to attract lightning strikes and safely conduct the electrical current to the ground, minimizing damage to the structure they are protecting. Earthworms, being in the ground, are not directly affected by the lightning strike on the rod. The electrical current from the lightning strike would follow the path of least resistance, which is the lightning rod, and not harm the earthworms in the soil.
-
Did Thor create the lightning or did the lightning create Thor?
In Norse mythology, Thor is the god of thunder and lightning. He is often depicted as the one who creates the lightning with his mighty hammer, Mjolnir. Therefore, it can be said that Thor creates the lightning. The lightning is a manifestation of his power and is closely associated with him.
-
Why does lightning always strike the tip of the lightning rod?
Lightning always strikes the tip of the lightning rod because it is the highest point in the vicinity. Lightning is attracted to the highest point in an area, and the lightning rod provides a direct path for the lightning to travel to the ground, thus protecting the structure it is attached to. The pointed tip of the lightning rod also helps to ionize the air around it, making it more conductive and further attracting the lightning strike.
