Q

Comparative Market Analysis : CMA

A
  • informal
  • done by real estate brokers for a fee for
    prospective or current clients
  • licensed real estate agent does not need to have
    an appraisers license to perform a CMA for a
    client
  • NCREC will hold agents accountable if CMA is not
    done in competent manner.

RANGE for probable sales prices found by

 - comparing listed properties
 - properties whose listings have expired
 - recently sold properties

Licensee acting as a dual agent must perform a CMA for both clients as part of fiduciary duties owed.
- two clients do not have to receive the same CMA

Broker cannot perform a CMA for a third party/customer however they can provide a customer with a factual list of properties that are currently listed or recently sold, withdrawn or expired.

Non client is owed market data but not interpretation of market data.

Q

Market Value

A

Reasonable OPINION of a property’s value

most probable price that a property will bring in a competitive and open market.

GOAL of appraiser

  • buyer and seller must act without undue pressure
  • reasonable length of time must be allowed for the
    property to be exposed in an open market.
  • both buyer and seller must be well informed of the
    property’s use and potential including its assets
    and defects.

Q

Basic Economic Principles of Value

A
  • Highest and best use
  • Substitution
  • Supply and Demand
  • Conformity
  • Anticipation
  • Contribution
  • Competition
  • Change
17
Q

Highest and best Use: Economic Principle of Value

A

most profitable single use to which a property is adapted and for which it is needed, or the use that is likely to be in demand in the reasonably near future

18
Q

Substitution: Economic Principle of Value

A

states when several items with essentially the same amenities and utilities are available, the item with the lowest price will attract the most demand.

19
Q

Supply and Demand: Economic Principle of Value

A

value of property will change if the supply decreases and the demand either increases or remains constant and vice versa.

20
Q

Conformity: Economic Principle of Value

A

Maximum value is realized if the use of land conforms to existing neighborhood standards.

*subdivision protective covenants rely on the principle of conformity to not build houses that are bigger than surrounding houses.

21
Q

Anticipation: Economic Principle of Value

A

holds that value can increase or decrease in anticipation of some future benefit or detriment affecting the property.

22
Q

Contribution: Economic Principle of Value

A

value of any component of a property is defined by what it contributes to the value of the value of the whole or what its absence detracts from that value.

23
Q

Competition: Economic Principle of Value

A

profits tend to attract competition

24
Q

Change: Economic Principle of Value

A

No physical or economic condition remains constant.

Neighborhood Life Cycle

  • growth
  • stability
  • decline
  • renewal
25
Q

Cost Approach to Value

A

based on principle of substitution
- maximum value of a property tends to be set by
the cost of acquiring and equally desirable and
valuable substitute property.

1) estimate the value of land as if it were vacant and
available to be put to its highest and best use
- based on sales comparison approach because
land cannot be depreciated.

2) separate the land from the improvements and
estimate the current cost of constructing the
buildings and site improvements based, on cost
data and experience.

3) estimate the amount of accrued depreciation of 
    the improvements resulting from 
    - physical deterioration
    - functional obsolescence
    - economic obsolescence

4) deduct the accrued depreciation from the
estimated construction cost of the new buildings
and the contributory depreciated value of site
improvements.

5) add the estimated value of the land to the
depreciated cost of the buildings and site
improvements to determine the total property
value.

26
Q

Reproduction Cost of construction

A
  • dollar amount required to construct an exact
    duplicate of the subject building at current prices.
  • used when appraising historical buildings
27
Q

Replacement Cost of construction

A

construction cost at current prices and using modern materials and methodology of a property that is not necessarily an exact duplicate but serves the same purpose or function as the original property.

  • used in appraising because it eliminates obsolete features and takes advantage of current construction materials and techniques.
28
Q

Square foot method of determining reproduction or replacement cost

A

Square foot method is the cost per square foot of a recently built comparable structure is multiplied by the number of square feet in the subject building.

  • most common method of cost estimation
29
Q

Unit in place method of determining replacement cost

A

construction cost per unit of measure of individual building components, including material, labor, overhead, and builders profit.

  • most components are measured in square feet
  • plumbing fixtures are estimated by unit cost.
30
Q

Quantity Survey method of determining replacement cost

A

estimate of cost of raw materials plus their installation and indirect costs to arrive at total replacement cost

  • similar to the approach a building contractor takes
    when preparing a bill for construction of a building
31
Q

Depreciation

A

loss in value for any reason

Land does not depreciate because it is here forever and can always be put to its highest and best use when economically and legally feasible to do so.

1) physical deterioration curable
- roof replacement
- painting
- maintenance
physical deterioration incurable
- repairs to major components of building
such as load bearing walls and foundations

2) functional obsolescence curable
- physical design features that are no longer
desirable but can be replaced.
- plumbing
3) Economic (environmental or External
Obsolescence) - incurable
- caused by factors outside of the property.
- aka location obsolescence

32
Q

Age Life Method

A

easiest but least precise way to determine depreciation.

Uses effective age of building and its economic useful life.

33
Q

Straight line method

A

when cost of an asset is depreciated evenly over its useful life.

34
Q

Effective age of a building

A

Economic life x depreciation

35
Q

Income Capitalization Approach to value

A

GIVEN

Gross Income
- Vacancy
- Expenses
= Net Operating Income.

  • estimate gross income from rents from comparable properties as well as concessions, laundry facilities, vending machines.
  • deduct appropriate allowance for vacancy and rent collection losses= effective gross income
  • deduct annual operating expenses ( taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, and reserves for replacement) of real estate from the Effective gross income to arrive at annual NOI.
  • estimate the price a typical investor would pay for the income produced by this particular type and class of property.
  • cap rate is applies to the properties annual NOI = appraisers estimate of the property value.

NOI / cap rate = Value

36
Q

Capitalization Rate

A

rate of return

compare NOI to sales price of similar properties that have sold in the current market.

37
Q

Gross Rent Multiplier GRM

A

used to appraise one family or two family homes

  • relates the sales price of a property to its expected rental income.

Gross monthly income is used for residential properties

gross annual income is used for commercial and industrial properties.

Sales Price
_________ = Gross Rent Multiplier
Rental Income

To establish GRM an appraiser should have data from three comparable properties

Then apply most appropriate GRM to estimated fair market rental of property to find its fair market value

rental Income x GRM = Estimated Market
Value.

38
Q

Reconciliation

A

art of analyzing and effectively, weighing the findings from different approaches used.
