Cost Trend Update Bulletin, July 2017

Download the Report

The Duff & Phelps cost trend update is now available for both the Construction Cost and Equipment Cost indices. This trend update dates back to 2014 and shows how the last four years has been relatively stable for construction after a decade of volatility, while the equipment cost indices continues to show moderate year-on-year changes.

Please be reminded that these indices are just average indicators of change and they are not absolutes. Duff & Phelps advises that after five to seven years, you should establish a new replacement cost basis by using a qualified valuation professional. Please contact Nigel Wilson at Duff & Phelps to discuss establishing a new replacement cost basis.
