Valuing Data Center Assets: Unique Challenges

Data centers house advanced IT infrastructure, including servers, networking equipment, cooling systems, and backup power solutions. Assessing the value of these assets requires in-depth knowledge of data center technology and its evolving market trends.
Functional and Economic Obsolescence
Data centers have unique functional characteristics, such as redundancy features, security protocols, and scalability capabilities. Evaluating the contribution of these features to the property’s overall value demands specialized expertise.
