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
Colin Ablitt - Birmingham City Council
"Birmingham City Council, Birmingham property services use two KEL products, namely KEL Sigma and KEL DRC in the preparation of the valuations of some 300 properties undertaken every year as part of a five year rolling program. The prime objectives of the change over to KEL were the ability to store the valuations and undertake revisions with the minimum of duplicated work and expectations have been exceeded in both respects. At the same time the ability to load property details electronically and output information selected against user defined fields has proved extremely useful. KEL have always reacted to requests for assistance or changes to the product very promptly and positively and a constructive ‘partnership’ has developed. My decision to make the change to KEL some two years ago has proved a good one."
