Q

There are three major ways to compute the cost approach to value are as follows:

A
  1. Quantity-survey method
  2. Unit-in-place/segregated cost method
  3. Comparative-unit method

Q

Comparative Unit Method:

A
  • easiest
  • Appraiser estimates dollars per unit of area based upon known costs of similar structures.
  • This method is the most widely used method for this approach to value

Q

Unit-In-Place Method:

A

Appraiser estimates the cost of the major components of construction using subcontractor quotes or cost handbooks.
- This method is very useful for industrial buildings as they are often shells.
- Break it up into parts of a building (Ex: foundation, framing, roofing, plumbing, heating and air)

Q

Quantity-Survey Method:

A
  • hardest
  • Appraiser estimates quantities of all the materials in the construction process (ex: 2 x 4 wood beams, roofing nails)
  • It is the most precise method but takes more time and detail. General Contractors use this more than appraisers

Q

Physical Depreciation: Cure Incure

A
  • Curable deprecation: it adds more value than it costs (example: fixing a roof with greatly increase house value because it is a major component)
  • Incurable depreciation: it costs more then the value it adds (example: pool because it is a luxury item and may not add much value to a home)

Q

Estimate of Accrued Depreciation:

Q

tends to be negative

51
Q

markets can change

52
Q

Physical Attributes:

A

size, road frontage, utilities, topography, etc.

53
Q

adjustments are typically made for

A

financing differences, location, time adjustment, and physical attributes

54
Q

adjust the comp to be like the

A

subject

55
Q

adjustments are

A

positive or negative, if the subject is superior we add to the comp, if the subject is inferior we subtract from the comp

56
Q

abstraction method

A

When the sales price of a comparable home is known, the “depreciated” cost of the improvements are subtracted to get the land value.

57
Q

extraction method

A

Typically used when finding land values where the improvements are reasonably new, or they contribute very little to the market value

58
Q

allocation method

A

Develop a ratio of land and building value for improved property sales using historical data (in a given county or city) and apply this ratio to the subject property, may not be accurate to the location, used in old cities

59
Q

common uses for the sales comparison approach

A
  • land
  • residential homes (any age)
  • commercial properties in an active market
60
Q

land SCA

A

not much cost to dirt and not much land is rented

61
Q

residential homes SCA

A

any sales that show the market, within a mile

62
Q

commercial SCA

A

if you have sales use them

63
Q

SCA uses a

A

grid to make comparisons between the subject property and comp sales

64
Q

SCA can be physical comparisons or income comparisons

A

-physical: brick to brick
- income: price per bedroom

65
Q

what is the difference with having 3 comp sales and 1 comp listing

A

comp listing hasn’t sold (listings are more current) sale has sold

66
Q

why bracket comps?

A

bracket by size, having something bigger and something smaller

67
Q

why have 1 comp outside the subdivision with new construction

A

because a contractor could take control

68
Q

some adjustments are not

A

quantitate (age, better location)

69
Q

how do you choose comps

A
  • location: most important, tells you most about the property
  • size: how much use you can get
  • age: how long before renovations
  • design: 1 story to 1 sort
  • significant features: something weird like a swimming pool
70
Q

cannot exceed 25%

71
Q

cannot exceed 15%

72
Q

line item adjustments

one adjustment cannot be more than 10% of the sales price

73
Q

Paired sales

A

easiest way to calculate adjustments, identical sales with a few adjustments

74
Q

why are commercial buildings more difficult to find paired sales for

A

they are not the same

75
Q

why is it hard in rural va

A

not enough buildings and not enough new ones

76
Q

Depreciated Cost

A

Adjustments are made by using the depreciated cost of the item being adjusted

77
Q

where do you find depreciation costs

A

Marshall evaluation services

78
Q

typical units of comparison

A

price per sqft, PGIM, EGIM, NIM

79
Q

problems with the SCA

A
  • Comparable sales are seldom identical or “paired”.
  • There can be a lack of sales in the subject neighborhood or area.
  • This is not a mechanical exercise and requires judgment.
  • Very reliable specific data can be hard to obtain on every sale.
80
Q

The market value should be between the

A

final “adjusted” prices of the comparable sales or between the multiplier ratio values of the comparable sales

81
Q

Appraisal judgment is required in

A

choosing the final value estimate in this approach
