<br />IFile No, 2006-0131 Paoe #141 <br /> <br />DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE: The most probable price which a property should bring in a compe@ve and open market under all conditions <br />requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting pruden1ly, knowiedgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stmulus, Implicit in this <br />definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (1) buyer and seller are <br />typically motivated; (2) both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best interest; (3) a reasonable tme is aliowed <br />for exposure in the open markef; (4) payment is made in terms of cash in U.S, dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable therefo; and (5) the price <br />represents the normal consideraton for the property soid unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions' granted by anyone associated with <br />the sale, <br /> <br />. Adjustments to the comparables must be made for speciai or creative financing or sales concessions, No adjustments are necessary <br />for those costs which are normally paid by sellers as a resuli of tradition or law in a market area; these costs are readily identifiable <br />since the seller pays these costs in virtually all sales transactions, Special or creative financing adjustments can be made to the <br />comparable property by comparisons to financing terms offered by a third party institutional lender that is not already involved in the <br />property or transaction. Any adjustment should not be calculated on a mechanical dollar for dollar cost of the financing or concession <br />but the dollar amount of any adjustment should approximate the market's reaction to the financing or concessions based on the <br />appraiser's judgement, <br /> <br />STATEMENT OF LIMITING CONDITIONS AND APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION <br /> <br />CONTINGENT AND LIMITING CONDITIONS: The appraiser's certification that appears in the appraisal report is subject to the following <br />condWons: <br /> <br />1, The appraiser will not be responsible for matters of a iegal nature that affect either the property being appraised or the title to it.
