Fungus Pudding To long ago to put actual figures on it But industrial land house built in 1905 of brick he valued the land plus so much from the sale of the house for removal. It is hard enough to shift a Brick Veneer house so even if it had been a Brick Veneer House his valuation would have been crazy. But since they did not build Brick Veneer houses in 1905 so he did not even have to visit the site to get his facts right. Spent some years in Australia & rather friendly with a Real Estate agent. who said valuers doing valuation for the banks used to Telephone them to ask what the house was like. Her Firm was very good to deal with because if they thought they could not get within 5% of the aking price they would not list it. Even when other agencies were taking listings as much as $80000.00 in some cases over their valuation & were still on the market 18months later. There were NO offers for the Public Trust Property as the whole town knew the price was ridiculous. I have been to property auctions where the property has been passed in after 5 vendors bids each higher than the last. So why make more than one vendors bid if nobody made a bid after the first
