Study Notes
Cost Characteristics
- Cost consists of various components including materials, quality, design, and land.
- 'Quality' is notably not a direct characteristic of cost.
Equilibrium in Market
- Equilibrium represents the point where supply and demand forces meet.
Effective Tax Rate
- To compare effective tax rates, consider both the taxable value and tax rate for properties.
- District B has a lower effective tax rate after calculations based on data provided.
Indirect Methods of Measuring Depreciation
- Common indirect methods include the Age-life method and Modified Age-life method.
Economic Life of Properties
- The difference between total economic life and remaining economic life is termed effective age.
Property Appraisal & Sales Data
- Sale prices and dates are critical when appraising properties, while considering market changes over time.
Market Demand Influencers
- Demand can be influenced by consumer expectations and the prices of related goods.
Supply Influencers
- Changes in supply may arise from factors like consumer income and the prices of related commodities.
Parcel Identifiers
- Parcel identifiers must be unique, permanent, and uniform for linking ownership records and assessment records effectively.
Lot Valuation Adjustments
- Property values are adjusted based on location desirability, view, and physical characteristics.
Adjustment Sequence in Appraising
- The order of adjustments in sales comparison includes market conditions, financing, location, and physical characteristics.
Conditions for Property Value
- For a property to hold value, it must have utility, scarcity, and desirability, influenced largely by supply and demand.
Principle of Substitution
- The adjustment process in sales comparison is based on the principle of substitution.
Time Adjustments in Re-sales
- Time adjustments can be calculated using past sale prices over a specified time frame to determine the monthly change rate.
Building Costs
- The new cost of building improvements considers direct and indirect costs along with land value.
Methods for Adjustments in Sales Comparison
- Techniques like paired sales analysis and multiple regression analysis are used to determine market adjustments in sales comparison.
Valuation of Land
- Land values can be determined by analyzing comparable sales even when no direct sales are present.
Desirable Features of Cost Manuals
- Effective cost manuals should apply to various types of buildings and base calculations on actual costs.
Cost Estimation Methods
- Common methods for cost estimation include Comparative Unit and Factored Historic.
Direct Methods of Measuring Depreciation
- Direct methods involve the Sales comparison and Age-life methods to assess depreciation.
Data Collection in Appraisal
- Appraisal requires gathering general, specific, and comparable data.
Highest and Best Use Analysis
- Analysis considers physically possible, legally permissible, financially feasible, and maximally productive criteria.
Land Valuation Methods
- When vacant land sales are scarce, Abstraction and Allocation methods provide useful insights for valuation.
Types of Depreciation
- Physical depreciation, functional obsolescence, and external obsolescence, with the latter being non-curable, contribute to property value changes.
Market Value Fluctuation
- Appraisals should reflect the date of assessment as market values are not static, underpinned by the principle of change.
Principal of Future Benefits
- The present worth of future benefits is encapsulated in the principle of anticipation.
Sales Comparison Approach
- The sales comparison approach is based on the relationship between the market value of a subject property and the value of comparable properties.
Cost Definitions
- Cost definitions clarify distinctions between Replacement Cost and Reproduction Cost based on similarity and quality of materials used.
