    Study Notes

    Additive Models and Property Characteristics

    • Additive models assume the impact of property characteristics on value is additive, allowing for simple summation.
    • The nonparametric model is highly flexible but more challenging to calibrate than other models.

    Mass Appraisal Modeling

    • Common stratification approach involves per unit value analysis, requiring property classification, unit calculation, and appropriate unit selection.
    • Multiple regression analysis has a limitation in that it may overlook nonlinear relationships among variables.
    • "Feedback" in modeling enhances adaptability, allowing for continuous improvement.

    Cost Models in Mass Appraisal

    • Cost models in mass appraisal reflect both direct and indirect costs, providing comprehensive value assessments.
    • Direct costs examples include materials and labor directly associated with construction.
    • Estimating current costs from historical data involves trending calculations based on cost factors.

    Cost Factor Calculations

    • Historical costs can be trended to current values using cost factors based on a reference year (e.g., 1960 = 100).
    • Given a historical cost factor of 150 and a current cost factor of 180, the trending factor would be 120 (180/150).

    Methods of Cost Estimation

    • The most common method for estimating costs in mass appraisal involves comparative unit methods.
    • A desirable feature of cost manuals includes clarity and accessibility, promoting consistent valuation practices.

    Income Projection Models

    • A net income model typically encompasses revenue, expenses, and capitalization rates.
    • A gross income model primarily focuses on the total income generated without expense deductions.
    • For a building costing 200,000withacurrentcostfactorof180andahistoricalfactorof150,theestimatedcostthreeyearsagowouldbe200,000 with a current cost factor of 180 and a historical factor of 150, the estimated cost three years ago would be 200,000withacurrentcostfactorof180andahistoricalfactorof150,theestimatedcostthreeyearsagowouldbe133,333 (200,000 / 1.2).

    Model Structure and Equations

    • The equation MV = GQ x [(Pi x Qi) x (Pl x Ql)] + OA represents a net income model, showcasing the calculation of market value through income generation metrics.

    Ratio Studies in Sales Analysis

    • Ratio studies provide insights into property valuation accuracy and market trends.
    • Types of sales that should not be excluded from sales ratio studies include arms-length transactions, as they reflect true market conditions.
