There are six ways to develop an opinion of site or land value:

A
  1. SALES COMPARISON - Comparison with recent sales
  2. EXTRACTION - Subtracts estimated improvement value to arrive at land value
  3. ALLOCATION - Uses land-to-value ratios based on improved sale comparables
  4. SUBDIVISION DEVELOPMENT - Subtracts estimated development costs from discounted sale proceeds
  5. LAND RESIDUAL- Divides up and capitalizes the income between land and improvements
  6. GROUND RENT CAPITALIZATION - Capitalizes income from leased land
30

extraction method
extraction method

38
Q

“A method of estimating land value in which the depreciated cost of the improvements on an improved property is calculated and deducted from the total sale price to arrive at an estimated sale price for the land. “ defines

A

Extraction Method

39
Q

Another word for Extraction Method

A

Abstraction Method

40
Q

A run-down neighborhood grocery store on a good corner location in a desirable older neighborhood recently sold for $400,000.
The reproduction cost of the improvements today would be $250,000 and the total depreciation is estimated to be 80%.
By extraction, what is the land value?

A

$350,000

$250,000 x 20% remaining value of improvements = $50,000

$400,000 minus $50,000 = $350,000

Q
