语言
来稿须以英文撰写。本刊目前无法审阅以其他语言投寄的稿件。希望以其他语言写作的作者,欢迎在投稿前先与编辑部联系。录用的文章由本刊译为另外十一种语言,英文版仍为定本。
稿件如何评估
本刊不采用匿名同行评议。每一篇来稿先由主编对照本刊宗旨与范围加以审视;若不属其列,或未达最低质量要求,即可在此阶段退稿。进入下一步的稿件由主编在人工智能系统的辅助下评估,考察其方法、内在一致性、可复现性、清晰度以及对相关文献的覆盖。本刊为何采取这一做法、该做法的弱点何在、又以什么加以弥补,均载于「关于本刊」的「编辑方式」一节。凡能找到胜任且愿意的评审者的来稿,本刊将寻求独立评审。
原创性
来稿须为原创,未在他处发表,亦未在其他期刊审稿之中。先前以预印本或工作论文形式公开,并不妨碍发表,但须在投稿时说明并在文中引用。来稿在评估之前,由编辑部与已发表文献进行比对。本刊正在办理 Crossref Similarity Check 的加入手续,完成后将以该服务查验所有来稿;届时本说明将予更新。
数据、代码与可复现性
本刊倚重可复现性而非评审者的权威,因此文章所提供的证据在此比在别处更为要紧。结论若依赖数据或代码,作者应将二者一并公开,或说明不能公开的理由——请存入公开仓储并在文中引用。凡读者无法依据已发表内容复现的结果,均视为缺乏支持。
授权、著作身份与伦理
来稿所含第三方材料(如照片、文件、数据集)的发表授权,由作者负责取得;该材料仍受其原有条件约束。来稿所列全体作者均须对该项工作有实质贡献,并同意具名。人工智能系统的贡献不构成著作身份;人工智能工具若对分析或撰写有实质协助,应在文中说明。凡属适用情形,研究应依研究所在国的法律要求,取得适当伦理委员会的批准。
利益冲突
作者须披露任何可能被视为影响其结论的财务或职业利害关系,例如顾问关系、对文中论及软件的所有权或参与、以及受文中所涉估价争议一方之委任。披露并不会使来稿失去资格,隐瞒才会。
稿件准备
投稿之前,请确认研究设计与论证条理清楚。标题宜简明,摘要应能独立成文。本刊假定作者已对来稿作过拼写与语法检查。确认来稿达到此一标准后,请依下列清单准备。
费用
本刊不收取任何费用:既无论文处理费,也无投稿费、页面费或彩印费,译本亦不另行收费。
所有提交的稿件必须符合以下要求。
Letters to the editor will be published if they are restricted to polite questions, comments and arguments, with decorum. The editor will respond as appropriate.
The editor presents a selection of foundational definitions needed to understand terminology and concepts discussed in valuation engineering. Appraisers often here terms such as hedonic regression bantied about, with out a good understanding what they mean. This is your chance to brush up on fundamental concepts and terms.
The Articles section is the journal's principal section and carries its substantive scholarship: original research together with rigorous methodological, conceptual, and practice contributions on the theory, practice, regulation, and computation of real-estate and asset valuation. Quantitative and computational submissions are expected to document their data sources and model specifications and to report out-of-sample or cross-validated performance rather than in-sample fit alone; claims about professional practice should be grounded in recognized standards such as USPAP and the International Valuation Standards, and regulatory claims in primary sources. Authors must disclose funding, employment, and client relationships, any commercial interest in the methods or assets discussed, and any use of generative-AI tools.
At launch, submissions to this section undergo editorial review (AI-assisted); independent external peer review will be introduced as the journal grows, and each article's review status is recorded on the published version. Where the editor is also an author, that relationship is disclosed and the article is identified as editor-reviewed.
Accepted articles receive persistent identifiers (Crossref and Zenodo DOIs) and fall under the journal's corrections-and-versioning policy.
Cross-jurisdictional comparison of valuation practice and its institutions: who may value, under which rules, and how the systems differ.
Recent Court Decisions surveys recent developments in property valuation law across accessible jurisdictions. Each installment covers a region, reporting decisions, statutes and regulations from the months preceding publication, and referencing each jurisdiction's primary sources.
A jurisdiction is counted as covered only where an installment addresses that jurisdiction's law. Materials are read in their original language where possible and in machine translation where not; each translated source is marked and linked so that it can be checked.
The department reports instruments as written. It does not warrant how they are applied in practice. Some jurisdictions are represented by statute and established practice rather than by a decision from the period, and some entries rest on secondary sources rather than official reports; both are marked where they occur. Readers should not rely on the Journal's English descriptions alone.
Jurisdictions are omitted for stated reasons — inaccessible court records, no accessible primary law, or not yet surveyed — and the omissions are listed rather than left silent.
Installments are written by the editor. The department particularly welcomes corrections from practitioners working in the jurisdictions surveyed remotely; these are published as Letters to the Editor or incorporated with acknowledgement.
Protocols are specific instructions for executing a defined valuation task. A protocol is not a standard: standards are issued by the professional bodies, and a protocol says how a task is carried out, not what the profession requires.
The department publishes protocols and the drafts that precede them. A draft carries a v0.x designation and is marked not citable in a conformance claim; it is published so that it can be read, tested and commented on before release. Comments go to the editor and their disposition is recorded.
Publication of a protocol creates no obligation on any valuer, and adoption by any authority is that authority's decision. A protocol being followed exactly does not make its result correct.
This section displays summaries of recent Central & Sourth American court cases in the 3-6 months prior to publication date. There may be an extended discussion of the case if it has special interest. Also, the first issue covers 2025 through May 2026.
Reviews of software and methodologies.
Describes areas where additiona articles are needed.
