Background of the Study
Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, particularly in the realm of learning, reasoning, and decision-making. In real estate, AI has shown significant potential in improving property valuation and pricing through the analysis of vast amounts of data and identification of patterns that are not easily observable by humans (Bala & Lawal, 2023). AI-powered tools and algorithms can analyze multiple variables such as location, property characteristics, historical sales data, and market trends to provide accurate and dynamic property valuations.
In Kaduna State, where real estate markets are rapidly evolving, accurate property valuation is critical for both buyers and sellers to make informed decisions. Traditional valuation methods, which often rely on manual assessments, can be subjective and prone to errors. The use of AI in property valuation allows for faster, more accurate assessments, potentially reducing human biases and improving the overall pricing mechanism in the market (Ibrahim & Danladi, 2024).
Recent studies suggest that AI can enhance property valuation by integrating real-time data, such as economic indicators, social trends, and property conditions, into valuation models (Ogunleye & Afolabi, 2024). In Kaduna State, where the real estate market is characterized by a mix of commercial, residential, and industrial properties, AI can also account for various local factors, including infrastructural developments and demographic shifts, to create more tailored property price models. However, despite the growing use of AI globally, its adoption in Kaduna’s real estate market is still in the early stages.
This study aims to examine the role of AI in property valuation and pricing in Kaduna State, analyzing its effects on accuracy, transparency, and market efficiency.
Statement of the Problem
While AI has been successfully implemented in various sectors globally, its application in property valuation and pricing in Kaduna State has not been fully explored. Traditional property valuation methods in Kaduna, although commonly used, can be time-consuming, prone to human error, and less transparent. The lack of advanced tools like AI in property valuation processes can result in inefficiencies, price inaccuracies, and increased market volatility, which ultimately affect real estate investments and market stability.
This study will investigate the extent to which AI can enhance property valuation and pricing in Kaduna State, offering insights into its potential benefits and challenges. Understanding these dynamics will provide stakeholders, such as real estate developers, investors, and policymakers, with valuable knowledge to optimize property pricing strategies in the region.
Objectives of the Study
1. To examine the role of AI in improving property valuation accuracy in Kaduna State.
2. To assess the impact of AI on property pricing efficiency in Kaduna State.
3. To evaluate the challenges and barriers to adopting AI in property valuation in Kaduna State.
Research Questions
1. How does AI impact the accuracy of property valuations in Kaduna State?
2. In what ways does AI improve property pricing efficiency in Kaduna State?
3. What challenges hinder the adoption of AI in property valuation in Kaduna State?
Research Hypotheses
1. AI significantly improves the accuracy of property valuations in Kaduna State.
2. AI enhances property pricing efficiency in Kaduna State.
3. There are significant barriers to the adoption of AI in property valuation in Kaduna State.
Scope and Limitations of the Study
This study will focus on the role of AI in property valuation and pricing within Kaduna State, specifically for residential and commercial properties. The limitations include potential resistance to new technologies from local real estate professionals and limited access to comprehensive AI-powered valuation data. Additionally, the rapid development of AI technology may lead to changes in the tools and models used during the study period.
