Calculating the re-build or reinstatement costs of your residence or commercial property is very important for many reasons but most importantly it ensures that if damage (water, fire, etc.) occurs to your property, your level of cover will be adequate to cover the loss.

In our experience it has become evident that a number of properties throughout the country are valued incorrectly and are, in fact, under insured.

Brendan Merry & Partners currently manage property portfolios for investment managers in relation to reinstatement valuations. These type of properties cover commercial, industrial, retail and residential sectors. Our service involves inspecting and valuing the properties with current market prices.
