So, let's say you are asked to determine the acreage in the SW ¼ of the SE ¼ of the NW ¼. The easiest way to calculate the acreage of a tract by using the Government Rectangular Survey System is to simply multiply the denominator of the description and then divide that number into 640 (total acres in 1 sq. mile or section): 4 x 4 x 4 = 64 | 640 / 64 = 10 acres.

Please note: there will be instances where the tract will contain two parcels. In those cases the description will join the various sections by the word "and." For example, the E ½ of the NE ¼ of the SE ¼ of section 15 AND W ½ of the NW ¼ of the SW ¼ of section 14. Section 15: 2 x 4 x 4 = 32 640 / 32 = 20 acres Section 14: 2 x 4 x 4 = 32 640 / 32 = 20 acres 20 + 20 = 40 acres total in tract

Mr. Jones has a property valued at $150,000. The 2003 taxes were 27.65 mills. In 2004 the mill levy was reduced to 25 mills but the assessed value increased 10%. Did the taxes:

The potential gross income of a warehouse is $36,000 per year, and the vacancy rate is 2%. The taxes are $2,000 per year; monthly maintenance costs are $300. Quarterly reserves are $450, debt service is $13,500 annually and depreciation is $3,500 annually. If the capitalization rate is 12% what is the estimated value of the warehouse?

Step 1) $36,000 Potential Gross Income is given by the question Step 2) $36,000 (Potential Gross Income) X .98 (100% - Vacancy Rate of 2%) = $35,280 (Effective Gross Income) Step 3) $35,280 (Effective Gross Income) - $2,000 (Taxes) - ($300 (monthly maintenance) X 12 = $3,600 (Annual Maintenance)) - ($450 (Quarterly Reserves) x 4 = $1,800 (Annual Reserves)) = $27,880 (NOI) Step 4) $27,880 (NOI) / 12% (Cap Rate) = $232,333 (Market Value of Property)

Calculate Acreage

Take denominators multiply and then divide into 640 acres 1/2 * 1/4 = 2 * 4 = 8 = 640 / 8 = 80 acres Section 2 = 640 acres SE 1/4 of 640 = 160 acres West 1/2 of 640 = 160 / 2 = 80 acres

Use the included Amoritization Chart (also called a mortgage factor chart) to find the shortest term for a $275,000 loan at 6.5% interest that keeps the monthly payment under the $1,800 the borrowers can afford.

30 years Explanation Amoritization charts are posted on the wall by your computer for use while taking the real licensing exam. This question is to give you some experience. The chart is easy, the factors shown for each interest rate and term are the amount of mortgage payment (principal and interest) charged per $1000 of loan. In this question - $275,000 has 275 $1000's in it. If you multiply 275 x 8.71 (the 15 year term factor) you get a monthly payment of $2395.25. That is too much! The 30 year factor of 6.32 x 275 = $1738 - well below the $1,800 amount the borrowers can afford.

Investor wants a 10.5% return on investment. What is the property worth if the annual gross income is $480,000 and the operating expense ratio is 79%

Annual operating expenses = $480,000 * 79% = $379,200 Annual net income = gross income - operating expenses $ 480,000 - $379,000 = $100,800 Value = annual net income / cap rate = $108,000/.105 = $960,000 (IRV)

Cost Approach to Value

Est value of land + improvements $25,000 Est current cost of construction = $200,000 Est. accrued depreciation = $10,000 Deduct depreciation from construction costs = $200,000 - $10,000 = $190,000 Add value of land + improvements = $190,000 + $25,000 = $215,000 Value = $215,000

Connie is buying a home using FHA financing, the purchase price is $108,000 the maximum LTV is 97.75% What is the minimum down payment Connie can make?

First take the purchase price of $108,000 X 97.75 = $105,570. Then subtract $105,570 from $108,000 = the down payment $2,430

A house is sold on June 15. The annual taxes in the amount of $850 for the year have not been paid. What does the seller owe the buyer at closing?

Jan. 1 - June 14 = 165 days. $850 / 365 = $2.3288 per day tax liability.165 days x $2.3288 = $384.25

A building was sold for $115,000. Earnest money in the amount of $15,000 was deposited, and the buyer obtained a loan for the balance. The lender charged a fee of 2% of the loan. What was the total cash used by the buyer for this purchase?

Lender's fees are not financed as part of the loan, so they need to be brought to the closing table as part of the cash to close. $15,000 + 2% of $100,000 = $17,000 cash to close.

Calculate the Principal Balance of Amortized Loan

Loan amount = $100,000 Monthly payment = $700 Interest rate = 6% $100,000 * 6% = $6,000 annual interest $6,000 / 12 = $500 monthly interest $700 - $500 = $200 monthly principal payment $100,000 - $200 = $99,800 loan balance month 1 $99,800 * 6% = $5,980 $5,980 / 12 = $499 $700 - $499 = $201 $99,800 - $201 = $99,599 loan balance month 2

Calculate Current Principal Balance

Loan payment = $625/month Interest is 9% Tax + Insurance = $47.50 Principal Amount = $27.75 Calculate monthly interest payment $625 - $47.50 + $27.75 = $549.75 monthly interest $549.75 * 12 = $6597 annual interest Part = Whole * Percentage $6597 = Whole * 9% $6597 /9% = $73,300 = loan amount (whole)

Calculate Property Tax

Market value * assessment rate = assessed value $100,000 * .20 = $20,000 = assessed value Assessed value * mil rate = annual taxes 10 mils = .010 $20,000 * .010 = $200 $200 = tax bill $285,000 = market value Mill rate = 21.8 Assessment rate = 40% $285,000 * 40% = $114,000 $114,000 * .0218 = $2485 taxes

Income Approach to Value

Net income generated from property estimate of value 1. Est annual gross income 2. Deduct vacancy rate = effective gross income 3.Deduct operating expenses = net operating income 4. Est capitalization rate fro comps (IRV) 5 Calculate value = Net operating income / Cap Rate

Mr. Davis was assessed by the city 6 cents per square foot of his property as a special assessment, his property measured 80 feet X 135 feet. What did the special assessment cost him?

Take the length 135 times the width 80 to get the total square footage = 10800 X .06 = $648

How many acres are there in the N-1/2 of the SE-¼ plus the NW-1/4 of NW- ¼ of section 17?

The big word in this question is "plus". It means there are two parcels. Calculate them both and add the two together. First parcel: A section is 640 acres. 1/2 of 1/4 means half of a quarter section. A quarter of a section is 160 acres (640/4,) half of that is 80 acres. Second parcel is 1/4 of a 1/4. 1/4 is equal to 160 acres, a quarter of that is 40 acres. Add the two parcels together 80 + 40 = 120 acres

Income Approach

The formula for determining the value of a property using this method is: 1) Estimate potential gross income 2) Subtract vacancy rate Result is Effective Gross Income 3) Subtract building operating expenses (note debt service also know as mortage payments are NOT considered an operating expense for determining value) Result is Net Operating Income 4) Determine Capitalization Rate - Capitalization Rate is the return on investment based on the income of the property. Find this by looking at the Cap Rate of other like properties in the area. 5) Net Operating Income divided by Capitalization Rate = Value of Property

Mr. Brooks has decided to offer to buy a farm. He has been told that farmland in the area is selling for $3,500 to $4,000 per acre. Mr. Brooks offers $3,750 per acre. The legal description of the farm is: The NW-1/4, of the SW-1/4 and the E-1/2, of the NW-1/4, of Sec 3 Township 37 Range 12E of the 3rd P.M.

The offer is $450,000 and is 120 acres The word "and" in the legal description indicates there are two different parcels. You need to determine the acreage of each one separately and then add the two together. The first parcel is "The NW-1/4, of the SW-1/4." In simpleze this is one quarter (NW ¼) of one quarter (SW ¼) of a section. To determine one quarter of a section (SW 1/4) you divide 640 by 4 equals 160 acres. To determine one quarter of that number (NW 1/4), divide the previous 160 by 4 equals 40 acres total in the first parcel. The second parcel is "the E-1/2, of the NW-1/4." In simpleze this is one half of one quarter of a section. To determine one quarter of a section (NW ¼) you divide 640 by 4 equals 160. To determine one-half of that (E ½), you divide the 160 by 2 equals 80 total acres in the second parcel. 40 plus 80 equals 120 total acres in this legal description times the offer of $3750 per acre equals $450,000.

A house is closed on May 15. HOA dues are $108 per month and are due and payable on the first day of each month. The HOA dues will appear on the closing statement as a

The seller paid the HOA dues on May first for the entire month. With a closing on May 15 ( remember the Buyer is responsible for the day of Closing), this means the Seller paid 17 days (May 15-31) too much. Since the Buyer is receiving the advantage of the overpaid HOA dues, the Buyer owes this money to the Seller. $108 / 31 days = $3.4839 per day. $3.4839 x 17 days = $59.23 to be credited to the seller and debited to the buyer.

A parcel of land, described as the "NW-1/4 and the SW-1/4 of Section 6, Township 3N, Range 3E, of the 3rd Principal Meridian," sold for $875 an acre. The listing broker will receive a 5% commission on the total sales price. How much will the broker receive?

The size of SW 1/4 of section 16 is 640 acres / 4 = 160 acres; The size of NW 1/4 of section 16 is 640 / 4= 160 acres Add the two together = 160 x 2 quarter sections = 320 acres; 320 acres x $875 per acre = $280,000 purchase price $280,000 x .05 commission = $14,000 commission

Locate the number of acres contained in the following parcel: The NW1/4, NW1/4, NW1/4 and the S1/2, SW1/4, SW1/4.

There are 2 parcels in this description. The first is 640 acres divided by 4 =160 divided by 4= 40 divided by 4 = 10 acres. The second is 640 divided by 2 = 320 divided by 4 = 80 divided by 4 = 20 acres. 10 acres plus 20 acres = 30 acres.

A section is 1 mile by 1 mile. How wide is a four-acre (hint: one acre contains 43,560 sq ft) easement that runs along the western edge of a section?

This is a hard one. A section is 1 mile by 1 mile. This means one edge of a section is 5280 feet (1 mile) long. Four acres (43,560 sq ft x 4 acres) contains a total of 174,240 sq. ft. 174,240 divided by 5280 equals 33. The dimension of this 4 acre easement is 5280 feet long by 33 feet wide.

How many 50-foot by 110-foot lots could be obtained from an acre of land?

You've got two measures here - one is "50-foot by 110-foot" and the other is "acre". In order to calculate how many of one (the lots) can be carved out of the other (the acre), you need to convert them to the common measure of square feet. Multiply 50 x 110 to get the square footage of one lot or 5500 square feet. The acre is a little trickier; you have to just know the total square feet (for us and the state test). It is 43560. Divide 5500 into 43560 and you get 7.920 lots. The question wants to know how many 50 x 100 foot lots you can get of an acre - the answer is 7. The .920 is not a full lot.

Comparable property "A" has central air conditioning worth approximately $2,000. Comparable property "B" does not. The subject property does not have central air conditioning. To adjust, an appraiser should:

subtract air conditioning value ($2,000) from comparable "A" to make it more like the subject property
