Scenario

Client was constructing a building, which is completed this year. Last year it was coming in Capital Work in Progress but this year its completed. Do I need an expert's opinion on valuation of building or can i get an assurance by other audit procedures??

Thanks

the valuation, is recorded on historical cost, here the cost of build the building...

and it's finished, when it's used, or have professional report on its completeness

thereby, on normal condition, this can be assured with related expenses and cost incurred invoice and corresponding records, unless there's circumstance indicated that, the build is necessarily revalued.
