Abstract: This paper is aimed at contributing to the scarce empirical literature on mortgage valuation by ranking the factors that influences mortgage valuation inaccuracy in the Kaduna Residential property market. A quantitative research approach using a survey design was adopted and structured closedended questionnaires were designed and administered to 57 registered Estate Surveying and Valuation (ESV) firms in Kaduna metropolis; 51 out of the 57 administered questionnaires were returned and used for analysis. A simple random sampling technique was employed and the 5-point Likert scale used as the scale of measurement, while causative factors were ranked using the Relative Importance Index (RII). The study analyzed the data using percentages. Findings indicated that data inadequacy, imperfection in the property market and clients’ pressure are the most trending in the absence of a unified valuation approach. The regulatory framework and valuation methodology are least contributory to valuation inaccuracy in the study area. The research will be of interest to practitioners and academic researchers interested in mortgage valuation as a guide for conducting mortgage valuation in the study area.
