Current Assessed Value $382,200 County Opinion $351,100 Time of Hearin 2:22PM Appellant Opinion $225,000 County Representative Louise Benson- Board Decision $351,100 Lochner Evidence submitted by the appellant: • The Appellant filed a formal appeal on June 5,2025. The Appellant stated, "Comparable property purchased for$85,000 with less land. Some of the current acreage of thel300 Faye Street property is for the private road. Another portion of the land is in a flood zone where a creek is across the street and has little value. Property purchased for$160,000. Property has a 1997 trailer(28 years old) in need of many repairs". Evidence submitted by the county representative: • On June 23,2025,an email was sent to the Appellant to arrange a site visit. There was no response. On August 13, 2025, a site visit was performed by this appraiser. It is presumed there was no one at home, a door-hanger notification was left with a request for contact. The exterior of the home and the yard items were observed and photographed for general condition. A newer deck was observed and measured. Observations and corrections to assessed records include: 1. Comparative Sales(COMPER attached): a)Reference to $85,000 sale per Appellant-comparative sale is located at 5619 Morrison Road. Comp is not comparable due to having 1,000 sq ft less than subject and almost 9 acres less. b) Comparative sale at 5200 Mrs. Fuller Road sold for$400,000. The comp has inferior square footage(300sf),but superior Effective Year Built,yard items(Inground Pool),and land (3 acres). This comp. demonstrates the overall value of a larger site and is considered to be a valid comparable. 2. The property gives access to a neighboring parcel via a road on the eastern side of the property. There is a small,wet area in the northwestern corner of the parcel. Each of these aspects affect the subject property negatively. A-10%plus a-5%land influence will be applied. These adjustments total a reduction of$34,100 in land and assessed value.
