Abstract
In the context represented by the market approach, the scientific research has developed a lot of valuation models. Any typology of these models is affected by a considerable number of important problems. These models are usually considered independently from the sources of data, information and scientific basis, but this is not the correct approach. The aim of this document is to provide a synthetic analysis about the main deficiencies of the relationship between information sources and valuation models and also to propose a new linear model, conceived in the broader context of an auspiciously rationalised Real Estate Valuations Science.
