Flemish term

Geschiktheidswaarde

Flemish to English Other Real Estate
Appears in a Flemish valuation report.

"De venale waarde is de beste prijs die men voor een goed kan krijgen met uitsluiting van de geschiktheidswaarde."

Reference (http://www.mow-vlaanderen.be/bemiddelaar/documenten/onteigen...

C. Geschiktheidswaarde.

Onder gelegenheidswaarde of geschiktheidswaarde verstaat men de bijzondere
waarde die het goed ‘voor zijn eigenaar’ heeft, ofwel wegens het nut dat hij eruit
haalt, ofwel wegens het genoegen dat het hem verschaft. Zij bestaat zodra het
goed, geheel of gedeeltelijk, een waarde heeft waarmee de gewone kopers geen
rekening zouden houden. Het betreft een subjectief materieel schade-element.

Deze waarde staat in verband met en vereist bepaalde materiële aanpassingen,
gerieflijkheden en een schikking van de plaatsen die voor de bewoner (en voor
hem alleen) min of meer voordelig zijn. De loutere goede bewoonbaarheid van
het goed is onvoldoende om aanleiding te geven tot deze bijkomende
vergoedingspost.

Is there a term in English that has the same or a similar meaning?

Michael Beijer Feb 13, 2014:
It's a shame you think so. As you correctly pointed out, I am on KudoZ 24/7, and have been for quite some time. Consequently, I know all too well that one of the dumbest things I could do would be to copy the answer (refs and all) of a KudoZ editor (or whatever your official position is here on the site), 23 minutes after he or she posted it. Actually, I think this would hold up quite well in KudoZ court.
writeaway Feb 13, 2014:
It's the sort of thing that can happen to newbies or infrequent fliers but for someone who is on Kudoz 24/7 and who doesn't usually "encounter" this sort of thing, the explanation/excuse really doesn't hold up in court. I could hide my answer but I won't. It was there before your D box entry and before your identical answer + refs, which showed up a full 23 minutes after mine. That's called copycatting and a few other things.
Michael Beijer Feb 13, 2014:
@writeaway: I am not trying to 'fool' anyone. I wrote my discussion box entry before you posted your answer, or in any case, before I saw your answer. I wrote the entry titled 'hmm' right after the question was posted. You then replied. I then Googled a few things and put together my answer. That is, we were both working on our answers (which turned out to be identical) at the same time, and I only noticed you had answered after I clicked send, or enter, or whatever it's called. I think I had the question open in two different tabs, which might explain what happened.

Why would I post an identical answer, with the same refs, 23 minutes after you posted yours ... if I had indeed seen your answer before posting it?
writeaway Feb 13, 2014:
hmm does sound like that, doesn't it.......... Why drop the word waarde in an evaluation report? Why refer to a different context?
Michael Beijer Feb 13, 2014:
hmm Sounds like something with 'suitability' (or fitness) might do. 'Suitability value', or maybe just 'suitability'.

For 'suitability value' (in a different context), see: http://www.patentalert.com/docs/000/z00003330.shtml

For once a literal translation seems to work fine.

(KudoZ) French to English translation of valeur de convenance: suitability value [property value - Real Estate (Bus/Financial)].

To determine the value of the expropriated property, it is necessary to consider its suitability value (special value to the expropriated person). The true value sought during expropriation is the property value for the expropriated owner. The suitability value generally exceeds the market value, as it includes the market value of the property as well as the owner’s own valuation.

neutral Michael Beijer : Wow, great minds think alike, or so they say. / I hadn't seen your answer until I submitted my answer. Furthermore, I posted my D box thoughts BEFORE you posted your answer – it was the first thing to be added to the page.

ha ha ha. posting 23 minutes after this answer with an identical answer and same refs? who are you trying to fool? ditto for D box "thoughts" "suggested well after this answer was posted. /NO WAY.
agree Marie-Helene Dubois : writeaway was first as far as I can tell
1 hr
10 mins vs 33 mins speaks legions imo.
agree philgoddard : Convenience or utility would be other possibilities.
2 hrs
don't think it's convenience. utility would be more towards usefulness. Not sure if that wouldn't involve more than just suitability.
