A comprehensive range of traditional valuation tools for investment valuation, analysis and reporting
Based on more than 35 years' experience, KEL Sigma and KEL SigmaPlus provide a trusted and widely used calculation engine for valuing and analysing UK commercial real estate properties and portfolios.
Decades of research & development have produced software that can value the most complex property investments. At the same time chartered valuation surveyors on our team have ensured that KEL software continues to be intuitive and easy to learn. Valuation inputs around tenancies, capital expenditure assumptions, and capitalisation rates follow a robust and intuitive workflow.
Functionality includes all traditional valuation methodologies for capitalisation of income (hardcore, term and reversion, initial and equivalent yield) together with discounted cash flow (DCF) method enabling NPV and IRR calculations. The comprehensive range of reports includes comparing valuations (difference reporting), producing alternative (WhatIf) scenarios based on asset management initiatives or stress testing market assumptions.
Power with flexibility. KEL Sigma offers many advantages over alternative valuation software
Ease of Use
The logical workflow guides users through creating the property, adding the tenancy data and then layering on the users market assumptions to arrive at the valuation.
Flexible
Methodologies continue to be added, for example, the new turnover rent feature allowing users to apply differing capitalisation rates to the ‘base’ and ‘turnover’ elements.
Productive
At KEL we are aware of the risks around valuation and seek to minimise these through good design. Our intuitive Sigma software and robust workflow allows users to be most productive and efficient with their use of time.
Transparent
Comprehensive reporting at portfolio, property and unit/tenant level allows the recipient to follow a valuation calculation with clear sight of the inputs made. Output of all valuation assumptions at property and unit level allows analysts to incorporate into in-house models.
What our clients are saying
Peter O'Brien - Principal & Managing Director- Professional Advisory Business Group , Head of Valuation - Avison Young (UK) Ltd
Avison Young has been using KEL products for over 30 years. We find the latest product, KEL SigmaPlus, simple to use when valuing across all commercial real estate sectors of the market.
The KEL support team are also always on hand to assist our team of valuers with any technical queries with the product that they cannot answer through the KEL Help Videos, which are built into the product itself.
The feedback from our clients is also positive, some of whom have built tools to automatically import the KEL data from our valuations, straight into their in-house proprietary systems.
