P E P S--Four Forces that Influence Value Political Forces Government: Zoning, Fiscal Policy, Taxes People: Environmental Protection, Education Economic Forces Consumer: Income, Employment, Credit, Interest Rates Physical Forces Natural: Land, Climate, Resources Man-Made: Buildings, Roads, Utilities Social Forces Area: Neighborhood, Living Standards People: Family Size, Lifestyle, Attitudes

PRINCIPLES OF VALUATION • • • Highest and Best Use Change Balance Supply and Demand Contribution Substitution. Progression – Regression Competition Conformity Anticipation

DEPRECIATION • • • Physical Deterioration – Worn out, run down, deferred maintenance, weathering • Curable or Incurable • Curable = expense to repair will be “less than value added to property” Result = increase in value (+). • Incurable = repair costs exceed the value added to property. Result = decrease in value. Functional Obsolescence – Out of date, poor floor plan, lack of modern appliances, out of style architecture • Curable or Incurable Economic Obsolescence – Neighborhood or Social Causes: • Traffic, noise, flood zone, crime • Incurable

DEPRECIATION: Functional Obsolescence Kitchen Utility Family Bath Dining Bedroom Living This 4 -bedroom, 1 bath home with no access to the back yard from the family room and utility room far from the bedrooms where kitchen becomes a hallway is an example of functional obsolescence (a floor plan that does not fit today’s needs).

Steps to the Appraisal Process

Types of Appraisal Reports Form Report: Summary Report Narrative Report: Self-Contained Report

Cost Approach to Value • Used primarily for: – New construction – Special purpose property – Public buildings To replace/reproduce the improvements on the property. The upper limit to value. BEST used for unique properties with a limited market appeal

COST APPROACHPractical App #1 - Page 291 Steps: 1. Estimate the land value, as if it were vacant. 2. Estimate the current replacement cost of the improvements Sq Foot x $ per sq foot = Current replacement cost 3. Estimate and subtract depreciation of the improvements. Replacement cost Depreciation of Improvements Present Value of Improvements 4. Add back the value of the land. Land Value + Present Value of Improvements Total Value

Income Approach- Practical App #2 - Page 291 Capitalization or Investment Approach Value based on income produced by the property Formula Gross Scheduled Income Less Vacancy and Bad Debt Effective Gross Income Less Operation Expenses Net Operating Income GSI - VAC EGI - OE NOI BEST for income producing properties Apartments, Retail, Office NOI Cap Rate = Value

Capitalization Rate I=RXV I = V The higher the risk, The higher the capitalization rate. The higher the cap rate, the lower the value. $30, 000 I 10% R = $300, 000 $30, 000 I 5% R = $600, 000 R

GROSS RENT MULTIPLIER- Page 289 Used for SFR rental income properties Definition: A gross rent multiplier is a calculation of how many times the property’s rent goes into the price. It can be based on the monthly or annual rent.

GROSS RENT MULTIPLIER Comp. Sales Price Comp. Monthly Rent = Gross Monthly Rent Multiplier (GMRM) Comp. Sales Price Comp. Annual Rent Gross Annual Rent Multiplier (GRM) = THEN Gross Scheduled Income (GSI) x Gross Rent Multiplier (GRM) = Estimated Value ($) FAILS TO CONSIDER VACANCIES AND EXPENSES © 2011 Cengage Learning
