National Chapter 7 Flashcards
estimate or opinion of value
appraisal
the goal of the appraiser is to determine
- market value, insurance value, salvage value or the tax value of a property
- compensation is baed on time and effort never on the established price of the property
appraiser’s ground rule
- payment must be in cash or its equivalent
- buyer and seller must be unrelated and acting without undue influence, menace, or duress
- property must be marketable for a reasonable time in an open and free-flowing market
- both buyer and seller must be well-informed consumers
steps of the appraisal process
- state the problem
- gather, record and verify the necessary data
- analyze and interpret
- estimate land value
- estimate the value of the property
- reconcile estimated values for the final value estimate
ways to analyze and interpret
neighborhood analysis, neighborhood cycle, and site analysis
ways to estimate the value of the property
market data (sales comparison), cost (or summation) and income
types of appraisal reports
letter, short or form, narrative
short business letter stating all essential data but not including supporting data
letter appraisal
contains all basics of a regular appraisal and is used primarily for homes
short or form appraisal
most comprehensive of all reports, used for commercial and investors
narrative appraisal
the possible use of a property that would produce the greatest net income and thereby develop the highest value
highest and best use
the max value of a property tends to be set by the cost of purchasing an equally desirable and valuable property
substitution
value of a property increases when the supply is short and decreases when there is too much - value increases when the supply is short and decreases when there is little demand
law of supply and demand
more a property or its components are in harmony with the surrounding properties or components, the greater the contributory value
conformity
occur between dissimilar properties - the value of the better quality property is affected adversely by the presence of the lessor quality property and a lesser house will benefit from a larger house
regression and progression
property can increase or decrease in value in expectation of something in the future such as appreciation or rezoning
anticipation
means the value of any component of a property is what it gives to the value of the whole or what is absence detracts from the whole
contribution
is the combining of 2+ adjoining lots into one larger tract to increase their total value
assemblage
when one business attracts another business of similar types - together they may make more money than they would have singularly
competition
real property is constantly changing - expanded, stabilizing, declining or rebirth
change
sales comparison approach is used for
appraising residential property and vacant land
holds that if a buyer will pay a certain price for a property, they will pay a similar price for a “substitute” property of similar characteristics
principle of substitution
steps in the sales comparison approach
- ID comparable sales
- compare comparables to the subject and make adjustments to comparables -
- reconcile values indicated by adjusted comparables for the final value estimate of the subject
used for properties with limited comparable data or income data or for properties where the original cost is particularly applicable
cost approach
cost can be determined by
square foot cost, unit in place, quality survey method
using outside measurement, how many square feet times a cost for either replacement or reproduction of the improvement
square foot cost
based on the construction cost per unit of measure of individual building components
unit in place
