Value of Corner House
Corner House was valued for Sh550 million by Gimco Limited in June, 2000 for the Official Receiver. This valuation was done along with the valuation of all the property investments listed above. The property valuations formed the basis of the total value of the assets transferred to KNAC (2001) Ltd from the Official Receiver in March, 2002. The valuation report and the values of the properties were accepted by the High Court for the purpose of the Transfer.
Subsequent Valuations
The Board requested the Government Chief Valuer to carry out valuation of all properties in March, 2004 in preparation for sale. The valuations formed the reserve prices.
Corner House was valued for Shs570 Million in March 2004 by the Government Chief Valuer. The building was revalued for Shs620 Million in July, 2007 by the Government Chief Valuer before it was advertised for sale.
