HypZert News March 2019

More than 1,100 guests came to HypZert's anniversary Annual Convention. HypZert had invited its certified valuers and other guests to celebrate its 25th anniversary at two locations in Berlin. 

The Certification & Valuation Award has been presented since 2001 to persons who have made an outstanding contribution to valuation, especially for the financial sector and for HypZert GmbH. 

We have extensively renovated our certification logos. You can now download them from your Valuers Corner. 

vdpResearch presented its new property information system LIS at the HypZert anniversary annual convention. Exclusively for HypZert valuers, LIS provides sound property and market data for the valuation of residential properties.

The foundation of HypZert was triggered by the criminal behaviour of an individual: A so-called "building lion" named Jürgen Schneider had applied for and received large-volume loans from various banks in the 1990s to finance his rapidly growing real estate empire.

In the article "Property Valuation for lending purposes" for the journal "Housing Finance International", Annett Wünsche, vdp Department Head Valuation, takes a closer look at current regulatory provisions and procedures for property valuation.

Nick Talbot, CEO of the International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC) congratulates HypZert on its 25th birthday. HypZert has been an IVSC member since 2018 and is involved in the Advisory Forum and the Europe Board. Together, IVSC and HypZert stand for high standards in valuation, in Germany and worldwide.

The autumn examinations have been completed and we have the pleasure of welcoming 93 newly certified valuers to our HypZert family. A warm welcome!

Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year!
