Property Valuation

The 'principle of progression' in real estate valuation states that a lower-value property is:

ANegatively affected by proximity to higher-value properties
BPositively affected by being located among higher-value properties — it benefits from their presence✓ Correct
CUnaffected by surrounding property values
DAlways valued at the average of surrounding properties

Explanation

The principle of progression holds that the value of a lower-priced property is enhanced (pulled up) by surrounding higher-value properties. The opposite (principle of regression) applies when a higher-value property is surrounded by lower-value ones.
