What is meant by functional obsolescence? Could a new building suffer from functional obsolescence?

Functional obsolescence refers to a building's loss in value resulting from changes in tastes, technical innovations, or market standards. Typically, functional obsolescence is associated with a building's decline in utility through the passage of time, but it is possible for a newer building to suffer from functional obsolescence. For example, costumer preferences and demands may change soon after a relatively new building is completed.

The cost approach to market valuation does not work well in markets that are overbuilt. Explain.

In an overbuilt market, the market value of an existing property is frequently less than the construction cost of the property. The estimated value calculated using reproduction cost of the property is likely significantly different from the value obtained from the sales comparison approach and the income approach.

A new house in good condition that has a poor floor plan would suffer from which type of accrued depreciation?

Incurable functional obsolescence

The final price from each appraisal approach is termed the:

Which of the following types of properties probably would not be appropriate for income capitalization

Public school

Why is the market value of real estate determined partly by the lender's requirements and partly by the requirements of equity investors?

Real estate investments are frequently financed using a combination of equity and mortgage debt. A real estate investment can be viewed as a joint investment made by both the lender and equity investor, and therefore, both parties' required rates of return are relevant. Consequently, the investor's minimum required rate of return is heavily influenced by the availability and terms of financing provided by lenders, as well by evaluating the required returns on alternative investments of similar risk. In general, a levered investment has greater risk than an unlevered investment, which increases the investor's required rate of return

Reversion

The cash proceeds from the sale

What main difficulty would you foresee in attempting to estimate the value of a 30- year old property by means of the cost approach?

The cost approach assumes that the market value of a new building is similar to that of constructing the building today. Of the two methods available for estimating cost, appraisers normally use the reproduction cost of a building for appraisal purposes. A 30- year old building likely possesses many characteristics that render it obsolete. Therefore, calculating an accurate reproduction cost for an older building is difficult because outdated features, such as room arrangement, decorative features, and materials, are included in the reproduction costs. Estimating these costs can be problematic because reproducing the cost of a 30-year old building requires significant effort and assumptions of accrued deprecation.

Appraisal report

The document the appraiser submits to the client and contains the appraiser's final estimate of the market value, the data upon which the estimate is based, and the calculations used to arrive at the estimate

Contract rent

The rent specified in the lease contract

Distinguish between levered and unlevered cash flows. In what sense does the equity investor have a residual claim on the property's cash flow stream if mortgage financing is employed?

The use of mortgage debt to finance the acquisition of a real estate investment property is referred to as leverage. Levered cash flows measure a property's income stream after deducting debt service payments. The amount of cash flow available for distribution to an equity investor is reduced by the amount paid to the lender. Therefore, the equity investor has a residual claim, known as the before- tax cash flow, which is simply NOI less debt service.

Investment value

The value of the property to a particular investor, based on his or her specific requirements, discount rate, expectation, and so on.

Summary appraisal report

This report summarizes the conclusions of the appraisal. Most use forms reporting option, meaning much shorter than narrative reports and are generally required by mortgage lenders when selling or refinancing. Their standardization creates efficiency and convenience

What is the theoretical basis for the direct sales comparison approach to the market valuation?

The direct sales comparison approach to the market valuation relies on value judgments made by willing buyers and sellers. Therefore, this method uses market- driven information. The sales comparison approach involves comparing a subject property with recently sold comparable properties.

Direct market extraction

What is the difference between a fee simple estate and a leased fee estate?

A fee simple estate is the highest form of property ownership. It is complete ownership of a property without regard to leases. A leased fee estate is ownership of a property subject to leases on the property. When acquiring existing commercial real estate, investors are most often acquiring a leased fee estate because they are acquiring the property subject to the existing leases

Adjustments

Additions or subtractions from a comparable sale price or cost which are required to make the comparable property more directly comparable to the subject property

What is an appraisal report?

An appraisal report is the document prepared by the appraiser. This report contains the appraiser's final estimate of value, the data forming the foundation of this estimate, and the calculations supporting the estimate

Capital expenditures

Expenditures for replacements and alterations to a building (or improvement) that materially prolong its life and increase its value

What is the difference between contract rent and market rent? Why is this distinction more important for investors purchasing existing office buildings than for investors purchasing existing apartment complexes?

Contract rent refers to the actual rent paid under existing lease contracts executed between owners and tenants. Market rent refers to the potential rental income a property could receive on the open market as of the effective date of an appraisal. The distinction is particularly important for investors in office buildings because commercial leases tend to be for multiple years, unlike apartment leases. Existing leases at below market rates will be included in the calculation of potential gross income, which will depress the appraised value of the property relative to the appraised value assuming market rental rates.

In what situations or for which types of properties might discounted cash flow analysis be preferred to direct capitalization?

Direct capitalization is dependent on information obtained from sales of properties that are deemed to be comparable to the subject property. Identifying comparable properties is particularly difficult with commercial real estate investments. Discounted cash flow analysis is useful for valuing income-producing properties because the unique expected cash flows for a particular property are evaluated using the appropriate required internal rate of return. DCF is especially useful when valuing multi-tenant office buildings and shopping centers were lease terms can vary widely across even otherwise similar properties.

Why is an estimate of the developer's fair market profit included in the costs estimate?

In practice, developers and contractors frequently include their profit in the calculated cost amount because a fair and reasonable profit amount is considered a cost of the project.

Losses of property value caused by forces or conditions beyond the borders of the property. The losses are deducted form a building's reproduction cost in the cost approach to estimating market value

In appraising a single-family home, you find a comparable property very similar to the subject property. One important difference, however, concerns the financing. The comparable property sold one month ago for $120,000 and was financed with an 80 percent, 30-year mortgage at 5.0 percent interest. Current market financing terms are 80 percent, 30-year mortgage at 7 percent interest. The monthly payments on the market financing would be $638.69, while the monthly payments on the special 5.0 percent financing are $515.35. Assume the borrower's opportunity cost rate is 7 percent. The approximate present value of the present savings on the non-market financing is ______, and this amount should be _______ to the transaction price of the comparable. The present value of the payment savings is

N= 360 I/YR = 7/12 PV = 0 PMT = 123.34 FV = 0 This $18,538.94 should be subtracted from the sale price of the comparable property. d. $18,539, subtracted

An overall capitalization rate (Ro) is divided into which type of income or cash flow to obtain an indicated value?

Net operating income (NOI)

The methodology of appraisal differs from that of investment analysis primarily regarding

Point of view and types of data used

Restricted appraisal report

Provides a minimal discussion of the appraisal with large numbers of references to internal file documentation. If the client just wants to know what the property is worth and does not intend to provide the appraisal to anyone for use or reference, a restricted report may be sufficient

Terminal capitalization rate

Rate used to convert annual net cash at the end of an expected holding period into an estimate of future sale price

You are estimating the value of a small office building. Suppose the estimated NOI for the first year of operations is $100,000. If you expect the initial $100,000 NOI will grow forever at a 3% annual rate, what is the value of the building assuming a 12.2% discount rate? If you pay this amount, what is the indicated initial cap rate?

The capitalization rate consists of a required IRR on equity and a growth rate. Applying the general constant-growth formula and assuming that the growth rate is 3%, the indicated capitalization rate is equal to 9.2% (12.2% - 3.0%.). Therefore, using a cap rate of 9.2%, the indicated value of the building is $100,000/0.092, or $1,086,957

Fee simple estate

The complete ownership of a property; may be either absolute or conditional

Given the following owner's income and expense estimates for an apartment property, formulate a reconstructed operating statement. The building consists of 10 units that could rent for $550 per month each. Owner's Income Statement Rental income (last year) $60,600 Less: Expenses Power $2,200 Heat 1,700 Janitor 4,600 Water 3,700 Maintenance 4,800 Reserves 2,800 Management 3,000 Depreciation 5,000 Mortgage payments 6,300 34,100 Net income $26,500 Estimating vacancy and collection losses at 5 percent of potential gross income, reconstruct the operating statement to obtain an estimate of NOI. Remember, there may be items in the owner's statement that should not be included in the reconstructed operating statement. Using the NOI and a Ro of 11.0 percent, calculate the property's indicated market value. Round your answer to the nearest $500.

Reconstructed Operating Statement PGI: (10 units x $550 x 12) $66,000 Less: Vacancy Loss (at 5 percent) (3,300) EGI: 62,700 Less: Operating Expenses Power $2,200 Heat 1,700 Janitor 4,600 Water 3,700 Maintenance 4,800 Reserves 2,800 Management 3,000 = 22,800 Net Operating Income $39,900 Note: Mortgage payments and depreciation are not included in the calculation of the property's NOI. The indicated value of the property is $362,727 ($39,900 / 0.11), which rounds to $363,000.

Reproduction cost has been estimated as $350,000 for a property with a 70-year economic life. The current effective age of the property is 15 years. The value of the land is estimated to be $55,000. What is the estimated market value of the property using the cost approach, assuming no external or functional obsolescence?

Reproduction cost 350,000 Less: Depreciation (75,000) [$350,000 x 15/70] Depreciable Cost of Building Improvements 275,000 Add: Estimated Value of Site 55,000 Indicated Value by the Cost Approach 330,000

Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP)

Rules governing the appraisal process and reporting of appraisals that are developed by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Appraisers are obligated by law to follow these rules and guidelines

You have been asked to estimate the market value of an apartment complex that is producing annual net operating income of $44,500. Four highly similar and competitive apartment properties within two blocks of the subject property have sold in the past three months. All four offer essentially the same amenities and services as the subject. All were open-market transactions with similar terms of sale. All were financed with 30-year fixed-rate mortgages using 70 percent debt and 30 percent equity. The sale prices and estimated first-year net operating incomes were as follows: Comparable 1: Sale price $500,000; NOI $55,000 Comparable 2: Sale price $420,000; NOI $50,400 Comparable 3: Sale price $475,000; NOI $53,400 Comparable 4: Sale price $600,000; NOI $69,000 What is the indicated value of the property using direct capitalization?

The abstracted going-in capitalization rates from the four properties are listed below: Comparable 1: 0.110 Comparable 2: 0.120 Comparable 3: 0.112 Comparable 4: 0.115 Simple Ave. 0.114 The simple average of the four comparable cap rates is 0.114. Thus, the indicated value of the subject property is $390, 351, ($44,500 / 0.114), which rounds to $390,000

Reserves for replacement and other nonrecurring expenses are allowances that reflect:

The annual depreciation of the short-lived components of the building and expenses that occur only occasionally

The cap rate on mortgage financing is 7.5 percent for properties similar to the subject. The typical loan-to-value ratio is 75 percent of value. What would be the indicated Ro by simple equity analysis, if equity dividend rates (RES are running at about 11 percent?

The appropriate going-in cap rate, or RO,is simply a weighted average of the equity dividend rate and the mortgage capitalization rate. Therefore, RO is 0.75(.075) + 0.25(.11), or 8.38%

Leased fee estate

The bundle of rights possessed by the landlord in a leased property, made up primarily of the right to receive rental payments during the lease term and ultimately to repossess the property at the end of the lease term

Estimate the market value of the following small office building. The property has 10,500 square feet of leasable space that was leased to a single tenant on January 1, four years ago. Terms of the lease call for rent payments of $9,525 per month for the first five years, and rent payments of $11,325 per month for the next five years. The tenant must pay all operating expenses. During the remaining term of the lease, there will be no vacancy and collection losses; however, upon termination of the lease it is expected that the property will be vacant for three months. When the property is released under short-term leases, with tenants paying all operating expenses, a vacancy and collection loss allowance of 8 percent per year is anticipated. The current market rental for properties of this type under triple net leases is $11 per square foot, and this rate has been increasing at a rate of 3 percent per year. The market discount rate for similar properties is about 11 percent, the "going-in" cap rate is about 9 percent, and terminal cap rates are typically 1 percentage point above going-in cap rates. Prepare a spreadsheet showing the rental income, expense reimbursements, NOIs, and the net proceeds from the sale of the property at the end of an 8-year holding period. Then use the information provided to estimate the market value of the property.

The fifth year of the 10-year lease is the first year of analysis. The problem calls for an 8-year analysis--one for the last year of the 1st 5-year period, five for the second 5-year period, one to allow the vacancy and collection loss to achieve a normal level, and one at the normal level for calculating the property's value (sale price) at that time. Assume vacancy and collections losses in year 7 are 25 percent, which reflects 100 percent vacancy for three months and no vacancy for 9 months. Assume the "normal" vacancy rate of 8 percent will apply in year 8 of the analysis and beyond.

Indicated value

The final value estimate for the subject property resulting from application of one of the major approaches in the appraisal process

Data for five comparable income properties that sold recently are shown below: Property NOI Sale Price Overall Rate A 57,800 566,600 ~ 0.1020 B 49,200 496,900 ~ 0.0990 C 63,000 630,000 ~ 0.1000 D 56,000 538,500 ~ 0.1040 E 58,500 600,000 ~ 0.0975 What is the indicated overall rate (RO)?

The indicated overall cap rate of 10.05 percent is the simple average of the overall rates for the five comparable properties.

You are estimating the value of a small office building. Suppose the estimated NOI for the first year of operations is $100,000. a. If you expect that NOI will remain constant at $100,000 over the next 50 years and that the office building will have no value at the end of 50 years, what is the present value of the building assuming a 12.2% discount rate? If you pay this amount, what is the indicated initial cap rate?

The present value, using a financial calculator, is $817,078. N = 50 I = 12.2 PV = ? PMT = 100,000 FV = 0 The initial (going-in) cap rate is $100,000/$817,078 = 12.24%

Natural vacancy rate

The proportion of potential gross income not collected when the use (rental) market is in equilibrium

Effect gross income multiplier (EFGM)

The ratio of the sales prices to the annual effective gross income of the income-producing property

Describe the conditions under which the use of gross income multipliers to value the subject property is appropriate

The use of gross income multipliers is predicated on two primary assumptions. First, it is assumed that the operating expense percentage of the subject property and the comparable properties are equal. Second, this approach assumes that the subject property and comparable properties are collecting market rents. In practice, gross income multipliers are most appropriate for valuing apartment buildings.

You are estimating the value of a small office building. Suppose the estimated NOI for the first year of operations is $100,000. If you expect that NOI will remain constant at $100,000 forever, what is the value of the building assuming a 12.2% discount rate? If you pay this amount, what is the indicated initial cap rate?

The value of the building with NOI remaining constant at $100,000 is calculated using the formula for a perpetuity, which is $100,000/0.122, or $819,672. If you pay $819,672 for the property, the initial (going-in) cap rate is 12.2% ($100,000 / $819,672)

You are asked to appraise a vacant parcel of land. Your analysis shows that if apartments were constructed, the portion of the NOI attributable to the land would be $30,000 per year. If offices were constructed, the portion attributable to land would be $25,000, and the portion contributed by a small neighborhood shopping center would be $27,500. All of these uses would be legal. If the appropriate RL is 0.105 (10.5%), what is the value of the site?

Using the land income that provides the highest and best use, Land Value = Land Income / Land Cap Rate (RL) = $30,000 / 0.105. == $285,714.29, or rounded $285,700

Going-out cap rate

the ratio of the estimated net operating income in the year following sale to the overall value of the property at the time of the sale
