Abstracts

EN

The paper identified and evaluated the techniques used by Nigerian Estate Surveyors and Valuers in valuing properties close to waste dump sites. A random sample of 107 Estate Surveyors and Valuers were taken from a sampling frame of 228 for the administration of questionnaire out of which 99 were returned. The data was analysed using the percentile, mean score and One Samplet-test. The results show that majority of the Estate Surveyors and Valuers were not aware of the existence of methodologies used for the valuation of environmentally contaminated properties. The result further showed that the Estate Surveyors and Valuers over value properties in close proximity to the waste dump sites using inappropriate methods. In view of these findings, the undergraduate and post-graduate curricula in Estate Management in the tertiary institutions should be reviewed to incorporate the appropriate methods of valuation in use for environmentally contaminated properties and the Continuous Professional Development (CPD) programme for the practitioners should be tailored to addresses this area of deficiency.

Šiame darbe nustatyti ir įvertinti metodai, kuriuos taiko Nigerijos matininkai ir turto vertintojai, vertindami netoli sąvartynų esantį turtą. Iš ėmimo sąrašo su 228 galimais respondentais atsitiktine tvarka atrinkta 107 matininkų ir turto vertintojų imtis, jiems įteiktos anketos, iš kurių grąžintos 99. Duomenys nagrinėti taikant procentilį, vidutinį balą ir vienos imties t testą (angl.One Sample t-test). Rezultatai rodo, kad daugelis matininkų ir nekilnojamojo turto vertintojų nežino apie metodikas, taikomas vertinant nuosavybę užterštoje aplinkoje. Be to, rezultatai rodo, kad matininkai ir turto vertintojai pervertina netoli sąvartynų esantį turtą, taikydami netinkamus metodus. Atsižvelgiant į šias išvadas, reikėtų pakoreguoti nekilnojamojo turto valdymo studijų programas, skirtas pirmojo ir antrojo ciklo studentams aukštesniosiose ir aukštosiose mokyklose, įtraukiant atitinkamus vertinimo metodus, taikomus vertinant nuosavybę užterštoje aplinkoje, o praktikams reikėtų paruošti Nuolatinio profesinio ugdymo (CPD) programą, kuri padėtų užpildyti šią spragą.
