The appellant also noted items of deferred maintenance and a <br /> lack of any renovations to her 15-year-old home. <br /> Evidence submitted by the county representative: <br /> • The County performed an exterior and limited interior inspection of the subject on 8/26/2025 <br /> in which the owner was present. The owner proceeded to show the appraiser minor items of <br /> exterior maintenance and described how she was having well problems as evidenced by having <br /> to again replace a recently replaced well water filter that was heavily soiled(black)and how <br /> she believed the well water was contributing to some health problems she was incurring. <br /> • The appraiser noted that the home was listed as having a frame exterior despite having <br /> masonry exterior on three sides with only the rear being frame and recommends correcting the <br /> exterior to masonry. However,based on the limited interior viewing,the appraiser is of the <br /> opinion that the grade is slightly overstated at B+10 and should be reduced to B to more <br /> accurately reflect the overall quality. The subject currently has an actual and effective year <br /> built of 2010 in fair condition, as adjusted at the informal appeal. The appraiser recommends <br /> adding an additional 10%physical condition adjustment to account for the apparent well <br /> problem. The appraiser also noted a detached 16 x 16 wood deck that was not reflected on the <br /> property record and should be added to the record as a yard item. <br /> • With regard to the land,the appraiser is of the opinion that the land is overvalued in <br /> comparison to recent sales and recommends applying a-25%market adjustment to the land. <br /> • If all County recommendations are accepted,the overall valuation of the property would be <br /> reduced to $546,200. <br />
