2 . field of application

   The purpose of this methodology is to develop general guidelines for valuing heritage properties in light of international and Russian valuation standards.

  This criterion is used to estimate the cost of archaeological properties with a historical and cultural advantage (see definition of antiquity) and is used by appraisers in the estimation process in interaction with customers. Owners and real estate market agents depend on it in estimating the type of transactions for the antiquity.

 These guidelines are applied by appraisers and can also be used by legal persons who are involved in impact costing work.

 These guidelines apply to the assessment of the impact itself and its equity, which can be assessed as separate parts and as part of an existing project.

Note (1): These guidelines are not taken as a comparison to determine the value of the land for non-heritage properties, as well as with regard to heritage movables, they do not apply to them either.

 Note (2): These guidelines are not to be taken into account in the evaluation of religiously sacred real estate.
