Terms & Conditions - 4Val Instant Valuation
1. General Disclaimer
4Val is an automated property valuation tool designed to provide an estimated market value for properties based on publicly available data and proprietary algorithms. The results generated by 4Val are for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon for financial, investment, or legal decisions.
2. Not a Certified Valuation
The valuation provided by 4Val is not a certified bank valuation and does not constitute a professional appraisal. It is not recognised by financial institutions, lenders, or legal entities as an official property valuation.
3. Data Sources & Lag in Market Trends
4Val estimates are primarily based on sold price data, including information from the Property Price Register Ireland (PPR). However, the PPR is typically at least six months out of date, meaning that the data used for valuations does not reflect the most recent property transactions or current market conditions. As a result, valuations may not fully capture real-time price changes, sudden market shifts, or more recent property sales.
4. Limitations of Accuracy
The estimates produced by 4Val are based on algorithmic calculations, historical data, and market trends. These valuations do not account for specific property conditions, unique features, recent renovations, or other factors that may significantly impact the actual market value of a property. The time lag in sold price data may further affect valuation accuracy, particularly in rapidly changing markets.
5. Possibility of Errors
While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, errors may occur due to incomplete or outdated data, incorrect assumptions, or limitations within our valuation model. 4Val does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of the estimated values provided.

4Property and its affiliates are not liable for any decisions, losses, or damages arising from reliance on 4Val valuation results. Users are encouraged to seek professional advice, such as from licensed valuers, estate agents, or financial advisors, before making any financial, investment, or property-related decisions.

4Val valuation model is continuously evolving, and estimates may change over time as new data becomes available. We reserve the right to update or modify our algorithms without prior notice.
8. Acceptance of Terms
By using 4Val, you acknowledge and accept that the valuation provided is an approximate estimate and not a definitive market value. You agree not to use 4Val results as the sole basis for any financial or investment decisions.
