When appraising a property for market value, an appraiser must determine: Correct Answer: the highest and best use
Market Value Correct Answer: means the most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specific date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
buyer and seller are typically motivated;
both parties are well informed or well advised and acting in what they consider their own best interests;
a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
payment is made in terms of cash in U. S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale
INVESTMENT VALUE Correct Answer: This is the value of a particular property to a specific investor. Investors look at a variety of data in making the decision of whether to invest in a property. This decision is based more on the income or potential income-earning capability of the investment opportunity.
VALUE IN USE Correct Answer: Value in use is the value of the property as it is presently being used. This value does not consider the highest and best use of the property or the market value as of the effective date of the assignment.
INSURANCE VALUE Correct Answer: This type of value recognizes the cost to replace the improvements and generally does not consider the value of the site. Insurance value normally covers only the cost to replace the improvements that could be destroyed by some sort of phenomenon which can be observed (fire, storm, flood, etc.).
VALUE IN EXCHANGE Correct Answer: Value in exchange equates to market value. This type of value signifies the property's worth in an open and competitive market, either in exchange for money or other goods. Value in exchange is an objective value and depends upon the marketplace to identify its worth, usually in terms of the most common medium of exchange.
BOOK VALUE Correct Answer: the cost of the improvements, plus the cost of any additions or further improvements, minus the depreciation of the structure to date. The rate of depreciation is structured by the accountant and will coincide with the improvements' remaining economic life.
GOING CONCERN VALUE Correct Answer: an operating business with an indefinite future life. For some established businesses, the real estate assets are an essential part of the business. The going concern includes both the tangible and intangible business assets.
LEASEHOLD VALUE Correct Answer: This type of value identifies a tenant's interest in a lease. When the tenant's right to use the property is greater than the rent being paid for the actual use of the property, there is a leasehold value. If the right to use is equal to the rent being paid for that use, there is no leasehold interest and no leasehold value for the tenant. The leasehold value is determined by calculating the rent savings over the term of the lease (the difference between the contract rent and the market rent) and discounting the difference into a present value.
What type of value is generally considered equivalent to market value? Correct Answer: value in exchange
What type of value includes an operating business with both tangible and intangible assets? Correct Answer: going concern value
