Redefining sustainability in property valuation

The HypZert ESG scoring model as a tool for the future of property valuation

Our world is changing - and so are the requirements for sustainable investments. With the HypZert ESG scoring, we offer you an innovative tool that adds sustainability criteria to property valuation. Whether for the use by valuers or financial institutions: our scoring model sets new standards and makes ESG criteria transparent and visualises the sustainability risks of a property.

What is HypZert ESG scoring?

HypZert ESG scoring is an innovative, standardised procedure for assessing the sustainability risks of properties. It not only takes into account traditional valuation factors, but also integrates key ESG criteria such as environmental impact, property condition, building characteristics and energy efficiency. The application provides a pragmatic solution for assessing ESG or sustainability risks and offers you a visualisation of the sustainability characteristics of a property at a glance. The scoring model was developed specifically for the requirements of property valuation.

Your advantages at a glance

HypZert ESG scoring offers clear advantages for different target groups in the property sector:

  • For valuers: Standardised assessment of ESG and sustainability risks - our scoring model offers you additional support for the valuation of properties
  • For financial institutions: Respond to regulatory requirements - define the potential risks and integrate sustainability criteria into lending processes.

How HypZert ESG scoring works

Our ESG scoring follows a clearly structured and transparent process in four steps:

1. Data collection: Four criteria groups with qualitatively and quantitatively measurable criteria are defined for ESG scoring based on the market and property rating. Quantitative (measurable) criteria, such as final energy consumption and CO2 emissions, can be taken from the energy performance certificate or determined with the help of an energy classification tool. For the qualitative criteria, we provide exemplary measurement standards that can form the basis of the assessment.

2. Assessment according to criteria: Using our four key criteria groups - environmental impact, land, building and energy - we assess a property's sustainability criteria both quantitatively and qualitatively.

3. Determination of the ESG score: The ESG score is determined by a transparent and comprehensible weighting of the individual criteria. It provides a comprehensive overview of the sustainability performance of the property.
