Testing what factors create the market value of real estate is key information when preparing property valuations as well as other opinions and professional evaluations on the basis of which court verdicts or administrative decisions are made. One of the factors influencing the value of some real estate is the level of noise present in the surroundings, which can lead to the occurrence of noise nuisance negatively affecting social relations.Due to the fact that the analysis of the attractiveness of a location is the basis for properly determining the market value of real estate, the present article is dedicated to the methodology of assessing the noise nuisance of real estate surroundings.
