Re: Petition for Property Tax Appeal — 761 Jenness Street, Ypsilanti, Ml 

Parcel ID: 11-11-04-340-003 

To Whom It May Concern, 

Please find enclosed a Petition to the Michigan Tax Tribunal regarding the above-referenced commercial 

property for the 2025 tax year. 

The subject property is currently assessed at a true cash value of approximately $551,600. However, an 

independent MAI-certified appraisal has determined a retrospective “as-is” true cash value of $160,000 as of 

December 31, 2025. This substantial discrepancy forms the basis of this appeal. 

The property is presently in a state of incomplete renovation and is not stabilized for typical commercial use. 

Additionally, site improvements remain unfinished, and the property’s current condition materially impacts its 

market value. The recent purchase of the property for $219,000 further supports a valuation significantly 

below the current assessment. 

Enclosed with this petition are the following materials for your review: 

o 

Completed Petition Form 

o 

Full MAI Appraisal Report 

o 

Supporting documentation (as applicable) 

We respectfully request that the Michigan Tax Tribunal review the enclosed materials and adjust the assessed 

and taxable values to reflect the property’s true cash value. 

Please feel free to contact me directly if any additional information is required.

Re: 

Appraisal of 761 Jenness Street, City of Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, 

Michigan 48197 

Dear Mr. Wildman: 

As detailed by engagement document, held in the appraisers’ file, an appraisal of 

the above-referenced property has been completed, the findings 

of which are 

submitted in this report. The purpose of this appraisal is to express an opinion of 

the retrospective “As-Is” true cash value of the fee simple interest 

in the above- 

referenced property. 

This appraisal cannot be completely understood without reading the "General 

Assumptions 

and 

Limitations 

of Appraisal" 

and 

"Extraordinary 

Assumptions" 

sections of this report. 

Any reader of this report is advised to thoroughly read and 

understand 

said 

sections 

before 

relying 

on 

any 

information, 

analyses 

or 

conclusions presented therein. 

The appraisers prepared this report and the value estimate herein in compliance 

with the requirements of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice 

(USPAP). 

This is an Appraisal Report. 

The “Required Statements” section of this 

report offers descriptions of these terms. 

It is the appraisers’ opinion that the retrospective “As-Is” true cash value of the 

appraisal property, pertaining to fee simple title interest, as of December 31, 2025, 

was: 

One Hundred Sixty Thousand ($160,000) Dollars 

This value estimate is made subject to the “General Assumptions and Limitations 

of Appraisal,” and the following “Extraordinary Assumptions” to this report. 

There

James Wildman 

Page Two 

1. 

Valuation is predicated upon the assumption that the appraisal property is free and clear of 

any environmental hazards which would materially affect value; 

if not, the value conclusion 

could be impacted; and 

2. 

Gross 

building 

and 

site 

areas 

are calculated from 

a 

survey, 

prepared 

by American 

Landmark Survey, PLC, dated March, 2025, corroborated by spot building measurement. 

Valuation 

is predicated upon the assumption that varying gross and/or net site building 

areas generally conform to actual conditions. 

If such is not the case, the value conclusion 

could be impacted; and 

3. 

The instant valuation is predicated upon the assumption that there have been no material 

changes to the property from the retrospective date 

of value to the date 

of property 

inspection. 

If such is not the case, the value conclusion could be impacted; and 

4. 

The appraisers have relied upon the property owner's representation of estimated cost to 

complete site improvements to assist 

in the analysis. 

If such estimate 

is significantly 

incorrect, the value conclusion could be impacted. 

The use of this appraisal is to serve as an estimate of the true cash value of the property under 

valuation for the purpose of assisting the client with a tax appeal. 

This appraisal has been prepared for our client, 761 Jenness St, LLC, its legal counsel, the City 

of Ypsilanti and the Michigan Tax Tribunal, the intended users of the report. 

The appraisers have not identified any other intended user of this appraisal. Receipt of a copy 

of this appraisal by such a party or any other third party does not mean that the party is an 

intended user of this appraisal. Such parties are advised 

to obtain an appraisal from an 

appraiser of their own choosing if they require an appraisal for their own use. 

The attached report, comprising ten sections and one exhibit, is an explanation of the method 

of valuation. 

This letter and report must not be separated because together they provide the 

necessary detail, analysis and explanation in support of the value opinion expressed herein. 

Respectfully submitted,

Purpose 

The purpose of this appraisal is to estimate retrospective “As-Is” true cash value, pertaining to 

fee simple 

title 

interest, 

identified 

in 

the foregoing 

section 

of this 

report, 

subject 

to the 

conditions and limitations stated in this report.

or

subject 

only 

to 

the 

limitations 

imposed 

by 

the 

governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power, 

and escheat.’ 

Definition Of Market Value 

The State of Michigan's General Property Tax Act, P.A. 206 of 1893 (as amended) MCL 211.27, 

defines true cash value as follows: 

Sec 27. (1) as used 

in this act, “true cash value” means the usual selling price at the 

place where the property to which the term is applied is at the time of the assessment, 

being the price which could be obtained for the property at private sale, and not at 

auction sale except as otherwise provided in this section, or at a forced sale. The usual 

selling price may include sales at auction held by a nongovernmental agency or person 

when those sales have become a common method of acquisition in the jurisdiction for 

the class of property being valued. 

The usual selling price shall not include sales at 

public auction where the 

sale 

is 

part 

of 

a 

liquidation 

of the 

seller's assets 

in 

a 

bankruptcy proceeding 

or where 

the 

seller 

is unable 

to 

use common 

marketing 

techniques to obtain the usual selling price for the property. 

A sale or other disposition 

by the state of an agency or political subdivision 

of the state of land acquired for 

delinquent taxes or an appraisal made in connection with the sale or other disposition 

of the value attributed to the property of regulated public utilities by a governmental 

regulatory agency 

for 

rate 

making 

purposes 

shall 

not 

be 

considered 

controlling 

evidence of true cash value for assessment purposes... 

Michigan Courts regard the definition of “true cash value” to reflect a market valuation.

Description of Property 19 

The Ann Arbor MSA encompasses areas only within the boundaries of Washtenaw County and 

thus has the same statistical data as the County. 

Owing to its central location, as well as 

cultural and educational advantages, the city of Ann Arbor, about ten miles west of the subject, 

is the metropolitan center to large portions of surrounding townships and neighboring towns. 

A summary of recent trends compiled by ESRI 

in population and households—for Ypsilanti 

Township, the city of Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, and the State of Michigan—is set forth in

Employment 

Important factors 

influencing current and future commercial and 

industrial growth 

include 

overall employment levels and the diversity of industries present in the area. A broad mix of 

industry sectors contributes to greater economic stability by reducing reliance on any single 

employer or sector. 

In Washtenaw County, this diversity is reflected in the presence of major 

employers across various industries as outlined in the table that follows.

improved 

with 

several 

restaurants, 

commercial 

establishments, a nightclub, and some lounges which serve both food and liquor. 

Many of the 

storefronts in Depot Town have been completely renovated in recent years to retail businesses 

and personal service uses. 

Michigan Avenue, several blocks south of the subject, defines Ypsilanti’s Downtown Central 

Business District. The CBD 

is improved with older commercial buildings. 

The north- and 

southbound penetrator streets radiating from Michigan Avenue are also improved with older, 

two- to three-story commercial buildings, often dedicated to office or retail uses at grade level 

with office or apartment uses on upper levels. 

Washtenaw Avenue comprises five lanes and is a major thoroughfare linking the communities 

of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti. 

It 

is Washtenaw County's most densely developed commercial 

corridor and 

is characterized primarily by strip shopping centers, motels, hotels, fast food 

restaurants, service stations, and general office and medical office buildings as well as multiple- 

family apartment projects. 

The subject area and the overall region 

of Washtenaw County comprise 

a relatively stable 

market, with adequate access to all commercial, educational, health, and employment facilities 

as well as local highways and expressways. 

Site, Yard Improvements and Utilities 

According 

to municipal record, 

as well as cited survey, 

the rectangularly-shaped property 

comprises 0.165 gross and net acre, with 60 feet of frontage on the west side of Jenness 

Street and 120 feet of frontage on the south side of one-way, westbound St. Johns Street. 

St. 

Johns Street culminates in a dead-end one block east of the subject property. 

The property 

has one curb cut on each artery. 

Topography is level and at street grade. 

Coverage consists 

of the building with earthen surround, 

as site improvements were demolished 

in the third 

quarter of 2025, excepting signage, nominal neglected grassed area and concrete retaining 

wall. 

The gross land-to-building ratio is 3.17 to one. 

The property owner estimates a cost of 

$60,000 remaining to complete proposed site improvements, which would restore functionality 

of the property, to consist of installation of conduit for electrical and fiber optic, drain tile for 

down spouts, bollards, concrete, parking striping, 

irrigation system, landscape, anticipating 

overages. 

Municipal 

and 

commercial 

utilities 

servicing 

or 

available 

to 

the 

building 

on 

site 

include 

telephone, electricity, natural gas, fiber optics and water and sewerage.

The property owner installed mini split systems as of 

the retrospective date of value. 

Layout: 

The building is dedicated to entrance vestibule, communal lobby/office, 

two 

private 

offices 

with 

interior window-view 

of 

communal 

area, 

kitchenette, conference room, two-piece lavatory, IT room, mechanical 

room, janitor closet with sink. 

Condition: 

Originally designed 

and constructed 

for 

industrial use 

in 

1957, 

the 

building was converted/remodeled 

to 

credit union use 

in 2006 and 

2013. The present property owner is in process of a remodel project for 

office use. Demolition of part of the interior began in June 2024, while 

site improvement demolition occurred during the third quarter 2025, 

with 

a reported $115,000 expended as 

of the retrospective date of 

value. The property owner's remodel project has stagnated from the 

second half of 2024 through 2025 (extending to the inspection date) 

owing to various zoning or municipal approval issues. Interior restoration 

as of the retrospective date of value is assumed to equate to routine 

tenant improvement allowance, consisting 

of clean 

up, some 

paint, 

carpet, and ceiling work, to restore operational use to the structure for 

office or commercial purposes. 

Assessed Valuation and Taxes 

In the state of Michigan real estate taxes are estimated based on 50% of the true cash value, 

or market value, known as assessed value. 

However, two values are calculated in the State of 

Michigan, assessed value and taxable value. 

In the first year of ownership, the assessed 

equals the taxable value. 

However, according to Proposal A, passed November 24, 1994, the 

taxable value 

is 

a capped value, limited to increase at 5% per year or the current rate of 

inflation, which ever is less. 

The capped value, however, readjusts to the assessed value when 

there is a change of ownership. 

Furthermore, the estimate of market value in an appraisal is a 

value based upon a potential sale. 

Therefore, 

in this valuation, the taxes based upon the 

assessed value are considered the real estate tax burden in this appraisal. 

The real property parcel is identified on the city of Ypsilanti tax rolls for 2025 in the following 

table. The 2026 values are not yet available.

The assessed true cash value is above the retrospective"As-Is” true cash value estimate in the 

fee simple condition. Therefore, a tax appeal investigation is warranted. 

An 

official 

in 

the 

city 

of 

Ypsilanti 

Treasury 

Department 

advises 

there 

were 

no 

special 

assessments 

levied against the appraisal property 

as 

of the retrospective date 

of value. 

Washtenaw County Treasury documentation indicates there are no delinquent taxes owing 

against the appraisal property for 2024 or prior, as a 2024 delinquent liability was paid on 

December 29, 2025. 

City Treasury documents indicate that 2025 taxes have been paid. 

Flood Hazard 

According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) map panel 26161C0288E, 

date April 3, 2012, the appraisal property lies in a Zone X designation, determined to be an 

area of minimal flooding.

Description of Property 29 

Zoning 

As indicated in the following graphics the the subject property is zoned “GC, General Corridor 

District and compatibly master-planned for central neighborhood uses. 

According to the city 

zoning ordinance, corridor districts, of which there are three, are intended for “mixed-use and 

commercial area located along arteries of the City." 

The ordinance states that multiple-family 

residential building types and uses are appropriate in the GC district.

Page 36

Gerald Alcock Company, L.L.C. 

Description of Property 30 

Principal permitted uses 

in the GC 

district include 

a variety 

of single- and multiple-family 

residential uses; recreational and municipal uses; business and commercial uses—including 

professional offices and financial services, including banks, 

less than 15,000 square feet,; 

commercial uses, including restaurants; limited production uses, such as microbrewery; among 

other uses. 

Special uses include parking and auto-related uses and some specified special 

purpose uses, among other uses. 

The City Planner historically advised that minimum building 

sites and width requirements are tied to form-based buildings. 

The subject site predates 

current zoning parameters and would be legal-non-conforming 

if not 

in conformance. 

The 

property owner advises that the demolished site improvements were discovered to be non- 

conforming and thus, new site improvements are largely limited to duplication of what was 

formerly extant. 

Although stoppage in the project has occurred, the project is anticipated to 

come to fruition. 

Easements 

The appraisers have been provided with historical 

title work incorporated into a settlement 

statement for the appraisal property, prepared by ATA Absolute Title Agency, National Title 

Group, dated February 7, 2024. 

The document does not cite other restrictions that would be 

considered atypical. 

The appraisers express no opinion as to the existence of easements or 

restrictions to the property that would adversely affect subject market value or in any way 

create an exception to clear title. 

For the purposes of this appraisal, 

it is presumed that any 

easements or restrictions to clear title consist only of typical utility, drainage and/or road right- 

of-way easements that do not preclude normal development of the appraisal property and 

have no influence on market value of the site. 

Environmental Hazards 

The appraisers did not detect the presence of obvious signs of contamination on the site as a 

result of our physical inspection. Notwithstanding the foregoing statement, the appraisers 

specifically note that the recognition, detection or measurement of contamination is outside the 

scope of this appraisal assignment and their professional expertise. 

Consequently, the value 

opinion expressed 

herein 

is predicated 

on 

the absence 

of toxic 

or otherwise hazardous 

substances or materials from the property. 

If contaminants now affect the appraisal site, or will 

do so in the future, their presence may adversely affect the marketability and/or value of the 

property as expressed herein.

According

of 

Michigan's 

Research 

Seminar 

in 

Quantitative Economics 

executive summary, dated November 2025, “With the data blackout thanks to the longest 

federal government shutdown, assessing 

an already complicated economy feels more 

like 

reading tea leaves this time. We have had to lean heavily on alternative data sources and 

nowcasts of the official data. 

Data released in late September, however, point to stronger consumption expenditure growth 

in 2025Q2. The annualized pace of real final sales to domestic private purchasers was revised 

up by 1.7 percentage points. With solid consumption expenditure readings in July and August, 

headline growth likely ends the third quarter on a firm note. As we write, the Atlanta Fed's 

GDPNow pegs real GDP growth pace at 4.0 percent for the third quarter of 2025. 

Although the federal government shutdown has ended, delayed federal economic statistics will 

take time to be released. 

It remains unclear how missed fieldwork for key indicators, such as 

the unemployment rate, will be handled. 

September-October readings from private data do not suggest a break from the controlled 

softening 

in the labor market. New unemployment insurance claims aggregated across the 

states have held steady through October. The WARN Act notices, which track the number of 

affected employees 60 days before layoffs, have retreated to a modest level in recent months 

after a spike in May-July. 

As 

separations 

under the 

deferred 

resignation 

program come 

due, 

federal government 

employment 

is poised to shrink by more than 150,000 jobs 

in 2025Q4. A negative monthly 

print for non-farm 

payroll job gains 

is highly 

likely 

if and when the October statistics are 

released. 

The Chicago Fed's nowcast of the unemployment rate predicts a moderate uptick from 4.3 

percent 

in August, though 

its October estimate 

of 4.4 percent was constrained 

to non- 

government data. The federal government shutdown likely added at least 0.1 percentage point

real-time inflation, we will have to wait for official releases to assess whether inflation has 

peaked or continues to accelerate in the aftermath of the tariffs. 

The longest federal government shutdown finally ended on November 12, with 

a continued 

resolution through January 30 and three appropriation bills for Agriculture, the Military, and the 

Legislative Branch. Given the length of the shutdown, the reduction in services provided by 

furloughed workers will be visible in the 2025Q4 NIPA data. Therefore, we expect a meaningful 

drag on real GDP growth from the federal government in 2025Q4, followed by an offsetting 

rebound in 2026Q1. 

Having ballooned 

in fiscal 2025 thanks to rising tariff revenue, the pace of nominal revenue 

growth likely moderates as tax cuts take effect and inflation decelerates. Even so, revenue 

growth still modestly outpaces expenditure growth over fiscal 2026-27, as transfer payments 

slow with cuts to safety net programs and non-defense spending remains anemic. As a result, 

the federal deficit dips to just below 6.0 percent of GDP. 

The band of uncertainty associated with trade policy has narrowed. Although we await the 

Supreme Court's ruling on a subset of tariffs, the one-year truce with China brought back some 

predictability. Actual tariff costs borne by businesses appear to track below headline policy 

rates as firms rely on bonded warehouses and other tactics to minimize duties due. We expect 

effective rates paid by firms to settle near 10 percent. Tariffs should keep modest, temporary 

pressure on core goods inflation. 

The FOMC cut the federal funds rate range at each of its two most recent meetings by a 

combined 50 bps, with the October decision coming with two opposing dissents. The Fed will 

likely enter its December meeting without sufficient data to resolve any October disagreements. 

Given recent employment data and a somewhat better than expected October CPI report, we 

believe that the FOMC 

will prioritize risks to the labor market and cut by 25 bps again 

in 

December. The Fed plans to halt the current balance sheet runoff in December after stress in 

money markets emerged in October. 

Somewhat lower mortgage rates have given the housing market some respite: home prices 

were largely flat amid soft demand, but affordability started to improve. While existing home 

sales remained soft, new home sales offered a glimpse of recovery. The sub- index for sales 

expectations in the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index rose above the contractionary 

zone for the first time in eight months.”3

RSQE: The 2026-2027 Outlook 

“We expect the annualized pace of real GDP growth in 2025Q3 to come in around 3.1 percent 

thanks to robust consumption and business fixed investment expenditures. The pace of growth 

roughly halves 

in 2025Q4 as a rising share of tariff costs accrues to consumers, the labor 

market softens further, and the federal government shutdown adds drag. Moderate tax cuts, 

less restrictive monetary policy, and the end of the shutdown will set the economy on a steadier 

growth path by early next year. The jagged pattern of quarterly growth rates results in calendar 

year 2026 growth averaging 

2.4 

percent. 

In calendar 2027, growth 

settles down 

to 

2.0 

percent. 

The unemployment rate edges up from 4.3 percent in 2025Q83 to 4.5 percent in 2025Q4, then 

flatlines through the end of 2027. Monthly payroll job gains bottom 

in 2025Q4 before slowly 

recovering to just over 100,000 per month by 2027Q2, driven by solid economic growth. 

The annualized quarterly pace of core CPI inflation peaks in 2025Q4-2026Q1 at 3.4 percent as 

tariffs filter through the economy, before gradually easing over the rest of the forecast horizon. 

Year-over-year PCE 

inflation stays 

in 

the 2.5-2.7 percent range through 2027Q2, 

before 

decelerating to 2.3 percent by 2027Q4. 

With plenty of supply for sale, new single-family home starts flatline for a couple of quarters 

before picking up gradually to 996,000 units by 2027Q4. Multi-family starts hold steady as solid 

economic growth sustains rental demand, averaging 400,000 units in 2026-27. 

The 16.3-million-unit light vehicle sales pace through August likely benefitted from pull-forward 

sales due to tariff front-running and the EV credit expiration. The sales pace dipped to 156.3 

million in October. With higher prices and lower manufacturer incentives, sales are expected to 

average 15.6 million units in 2025Q4. Light vehicle sales hover around 15.7-15.8 million units

jobs next year before adding 4,500 the following year with a boost from a looser regulatory 

environment. Job growth in the government sector slows down but remains positive in each of 

the next two years. 

Michigan's unemployment rate edges up from an estimated 5.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 

this year to 5.6 percent by the second quarter of 2026 before ticking back down to 5.5 percent 

in 2027. 

Personal income per capita grew at a healthy annual pace in the first half of 2025, and we 

expect it to finish the year with a respectable performance of 3.9 percent growth. That pace 

slows to 3.0 percent next year and 3.2 percent in 2027 amid tepid employment growth. 

We expect Detroit CPI inflation to slow to 2.0 percent this year, its slowest pace since 2020. 

Local inflation picks back up to the 2.9-3.0 percent range over the next two years as tariffs 

continue to work their way into consumer prices. 

The combination of slower inflation and healthy nominal income growth boosts real disposable 

in- come per capita with 1.6 percent growth this year, well above the recent average. Real 

disposable income growth slows over the next two years as inflation picks up and job growth 

slows, but federal tax cuts help to offset some of that drag. We project growth of 0.2-0.3 

percent per year over the next two years. Our forecast brings Michigan's personal income per 

capita to $70,300 in 2027, when real disposable income per capita stands 7.3 percent above 

its 2019 level.5 

Subject’s Market Position 

The following table, derived from CoStar Comps, summarizes office trend statistics within a 

one-mile radius of the subject for buildings less than 10,000 square feet. 

As shown, the 

retrospective office market vacancy rate 

is estimated to be 1.10 percent with an average 

asking lease rate as of $15.95 per square foot, full service gross. 

The COVID crisis initially caused an artificial pause in the economy, which has resolved. 

After 

an 

initial spike, the forecast vacancy rate for office properties less than 10,000 square feet 

within a one-mile radius of the subject is expected to increase to above historical levels, as a 

result of the COVID pandemic and economic disruption. 

This takes into account both current 

vacancies and those properties marketed as available.

Analysis of Value 36 

The foregoing CoStar study indicates an office vacancy rate for buildings less than 100,000 

square feet of 1.063 percent for Fourth Quarter 2025 decreased from 1.1455 percent in the 

Fourth Quarter 2024. 

The Fourth Quarter 2026 is forecast for 1.098 percent, to increase to 

1.141 percent by the Fourth Quarter 2030, five years hence. 

The market rent is reported to be 

$18.33 per square foot for Fourth Quarter 2025, increased from market rent of $17.78 per 

square foot in the Fourth Quarter 2024; forecast for $18.33 for the Fourth Quarter 2026; and 

$19.60 per square foot by Fourth Quarter 2030. 

The appraisers note that the market rent 

forecast pertains to properties that are not specific to the appraisal property. 

The Fourth Quarter 2025 RERC Real Estate Report cites Second Tier Midwest Suburban Office 

capitalization rates in a range from 7.80 to 10.0, averaging 8.80 percent; and Third Tier rates 

range from 7.80 to 11.80, averaging 9.50 percent. 

After a spike in 2023 and 2024, vacancy rates declined in the second half of 2025 and Costar 

projects rates to remain stable with rents trending upward a moderate pace over the next 

several years, generally in line with inflation. 

Highest and Best Use of Property 

As defined by the Appraisal Institute, the highest and best use is 

The reasonably probable and 

legal use 

of vacant 

land 

or an improved 

property, which 

is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially 

feasible, and that results in the highest value. 

The use to which land can be put and the intensity to which 

it can be developed have a direct 

bearing on its value. The purpose of the highest and best use analysis, therefore, is to identify 

the most probable and profitable use 

of the property so that 

a value may be estimated 

predicated on that use. 

This definition reflects the importance of determining the subject property's most productive 

use as 

it relates to value. Certain criteria—legally permissible, physically possible, financially 

feasible, and maximally productive—are considered in order to determine its highest and best 

use. 

The property is first analyzed “As Though Vacant” and “As Improved” 

in consideration of a

Page 43

Analysis of Value 37 

As Though Vacant: 

Legally Permissible 

To the best of the appraisers’ knowledge, information, and belief, there 

are no legal restrictions that would interfere with normal development of 

the site for any use permitted under the GC, General Corridor zoning 

designation, constructed in compliance with code requirements. 

Physically Possible 

The subject contains 0.165 

gross 

acre. 

Topography 

is 

level and 

coverage is clear. The soils are assumed suitable for development. The 

existence of buildings on nearby lots further affirms this possibility. 

All 

municipal utilities are available to the site. 

The site has represented an 

isolated commercial use, 

featuring adequate frontage and exposure 

characteristics on two tertiary arteries, one of which 

is a one-way and 

dead-ends just east of the subject. The location of the site is suitable to 

serve the commercial or office needs of EMU's student body. 

Based on 

the 

above 

physical 

characteristics, 

the 

subject 

site 

is 

suited 

for 

development 

to many 

of the 

uses 

permitted 

by 

the 

GC, 

General 

Corridor District. 

The site is physically suitable for a use similar to the 

historical 

credit union 

or an 

office 

use, 

as proposed 

by the current 

owner. 

Financially Feasible 

Of the permitted uses to the site all would produce income greater than 

that needed to satisfy operating expenses. 

However, 

it 

is difficult to 

determine with certainty, lacking benefit of plans, specifications, or costs 

of a proposed project. The subject's size, shape, and location, indicates 

the best use of the site is for mixed-commercial, office and or residential 

use as allowed by code, servicing the area's population. 

Maximally Productive 

Given 

the 

subject's 

location, 

a mixed-use commercial development 

appears 

to produce the highest value and 

is considered 

to be the 

maximally productive and highest and best use for the subject site, time 

and circumstances warranting.

Gerald Alcock Company, L.L.C. 

Analysis of Value 38 

include commercial business service uses and 

the intended 

use 

is 

presumed permissible. 

Physically Possible 

The design, location, and zoning of the subject property, along with the 

presence 

of 

an 

existing 

structure, 

support 

the 

conclusion 

that 

the 

anticipated use 

is physically possible. The presence 

of buildings on 

nearby parcels further reinforces this conclusion. The building's size, 

configuration, 

and 

features 

are 

generally 

well-suited 

to 

a 

range 

of 

commercial office users within the local market. 

Financially Feasible 

Financial feasibility 

is based on whether a proposed use can generate 

an income or return sufficient to cover operating expenses and provide 

a reasonable return on investment. The overall occupancy rate in the 

area remains stable, and the regional market has shown consistent 

activity, as evidenced by numerous improved property sales over the 

past 

five years. Current market indicators support positive property 

values. 

Accordingly, 

the improvements 

on 

the subject 

property 

are 

considered financially feasible as planned for completion. 

Maximally Productive 

Among the financially feasible uses, the one that produces the highest 

value represents the highest and 

best 

use. The subject property 

is 

currently improved with a building that effectively utilizes the site. 

The 

property owner 

is 

in process 

of redeveloping 

the property and 

site 

improvements, 

revealing 

a 

non-conformance 

of 

older 

site 

improvements, now demolished, presumed to have had 

a legal non- 

conforming status. 

Although such circumstance has caused stoppages 

to the project, the remodel plan is anticipated by the property owner to 

come to fruition. 

The property owner's planned site improvements are 

required 

to replicate the former improvements, presumed through 

a 

variance instrument, associated with the existing zoning regulations. No 

other use would create a higher value than the use proposed, given the 

status of the project in process as of the retrospective date of value.

Analysis of Value 39 

Methods and Date of Valuation 

There are three generally recognized approaches to valuing real property: 

The cost approach, 

the sales comparison approach, and the income approach. 

Each of the three approaches has 

inherent strengths. 

In selection of the procedures and techniques to be used in a valuation, the 

appraisers must consider the appropriateness of the valuation approaches relative to the nature 

of the property under valuation to determine which approaches 

will produce supportable 

estimates 

of market value. 

Each method and 

its applicability 

in the instant analysis are 

discussed below. 

Each method and its applicability in the instant appraisal are discussed below. 

Discussion of the Cost Approach and Its Appropriateness in this Analysis 

In the cost approach, the cost of replacement or reproduction of the buildings and all 

other improvements to the land are estimated. Depreciation, 

if any, from all causes is 

then estimated and deducted from reproduction 

or replacement cost 

to give net 

depreciated reproduction or replacement cost of improvements. To this is added land 

value to give an indication of total property value by the cost approach. This approach 

is most useful for valuing property with new or proposed improvements that utilizes a 

site to 

its most intense use. 

In valuing income-producing properties, this approach 

generally sets an upper limit to value. This is based on the tenet known in appraising as 

the principle of substitution which, 

“ 

. 

. 

. states that a prudent purchaser would pay no 

more for real property than the cost of acquiring or developing an equally desirable 

substitute. 

. 

. 

“ 

Valuation by the cost approach is not considered appropriate for the subject because, 

as properties age, depreciation becomes increasingly difficult to accurately measure, 

making the value indication by the cost approach rather subjective. 

It is our opinion 

that properties such as this—which 

is to say, 

buildings older than 

five years—are 

purchased on market-driven 

as opposed to cost-driven considerations. 

The cost 

approach is not applied. 

Discussion of the Income Approach and Its Appropriateness in this Analysis 

The income capitalization approach assumes that the value of the property arises from 

its potential 

for producing income to an investor. 

First, gross income, operating

Analysis of Value 40 

Generally, 

market 

participants 

of

potential when establishing selling prices. 

The income approach is not applied to the 

valuation of the property in the retrospective condition, as the property is not suitable 

for occupancy in its current condition and 

is more likely to be owner-occupied upon 

completion in the future. 

Discussion of the Sales Comparison Approach and Its Appropriateness in this Analysis 

The sales comparison approach, 

is defined as "[an] appraisal technique in which the 

market value estimate is predicated upon prices paid in actual market transactions (...) 

It is a process of correlation’s and analysis of similar recently sold properties. 

. ." 

The sales comparison approach 

is typically used in valuing similar properties such as 

the 

subject, when 

there 

is adequate and 

reliable 

sale information 

of comparable 

properties. 

The sales comparison approach will be employed 

in the analysis of the 

property as improved in retrospective condition. 

Sales of such facilities provide viable 

market indicators from which value may be deduced. 

Summary 

The sales comparison approach 

will be applied to valuation of the property 

in the 

retrospective condition. 

Because the property is currently 

in an partial incomplete 

stage, with remodel/conversion project partially accomplished, the retrospective value is 

discounted for projected cost to complete a repurposed project and entrepreneurial 

profit, necessary to entice a market participant to take on such a project. 

Effective Dates 

The effective date of the retrospective valuation 

is December 31, 2025. The property was 

inspected on February 19, 2026.

Page 47

Gerald Alcock Company. L.L.C. 

Analysis of Value 41 

Retrospective Condition: Sales Comparison Approach 

The retrospective valuation is made as of December 31, 2025. 

The property owner's remodel 

project has stagnated from the second half of 2024 through 2025 (extending to the inspection 

date) owing 

to various zoning 

or municipal approval issues. 

Interior restoration 

as 

of the 

retrospective date of value 

is assumed to equate to routine tenant improvement allowance, 

consisting of clean up, some paint, carpet, and ceiling work, to restore operational use to the 

structure for office or commercial purposes. 

The property owner estimates a cost of $60,000 

remaining to complete proposed site improvements, which would restore functionality of the 

property, to consist of installation of conduit for electrical and fiber optic, drain tile for down 

spouts, bollards, concrete, parking striping, irrigation system, landscape, anticipating overages. 

The sales comparison approach is based on the principle of substitution. 

This approach has 

greatest value in appraisal situations involving land or improved properties within a particular 

area, having common elements and similar amenities. 

In the absence of sales with sufficient 

similarity 

to 

allow 

direct 

comparison, 

other 

reasonably 

similar 

improved 

properties 

are 

considered, because they provide a range of unit prices within which the current real estate 

market is operating and within which the appraisal property would be expected to sell. 

Several units of comparison can be used depending upon the type of property under valuation. 

A typical unit of comparison most recognized by the market for similar facilities is the price per 

gross square foot of building area, fully above grade. 

This is the unit of comparison used in the 

instant analysis. The significant items of comparisons are the transaction and physical items 

shown as follows:

Analysis of Value 49 

Adjustments 

Buyer Expenditures 

Buyer expenditures include the costs incurred or anticipated by buyers immediately following 

the purchase of a property. These costs may include demolition, renovation, environmental 

costs, or legal and zoning costs. 

Additional buyer expenditures were not reported for the 

presented data; therefore no adjustment is warranted. 

Property Rights 

The fee simple title to the subject property is under analysis. 

The comparable sales conveyed 

or are offered in the fee simple title interest, and adjustments for property rights are not applied. 

Financing 

All 

of the comparables sales were purchased with cash 

to the seller 

or presumed cash 

equivalent terms. Therefore, no adjustments are warranted. 

Conditions of Sale 

The presented data are reported to be arm’s-length transactions; therefore, no adjustments are 

applied. 

Market Conditions 

The consummated sales have occurred within the past 27 months of the retrospective date of 

valuation. 

Adjustments are predicated upon improvement 

at 

a rate 

of three percent per 

annum, or 0.25 percent per month, from the date of sale through the retrospective date of 

valuation. 

Downward 

adjustment 

is 

applied 

to Comparable 

Five, 

an 

active 

listing 

in 

consideration of negotiation inherent to real estate transactions. 

Location 

Location adjustments are made 

in consideration of visibility characteristics, 

traffic patterns, 

accessibility, local economies, demographic trends, and neighborhood real estate values. 

The 

subject represents a spot commercial use, located at the corner of two tertiary arteries, amidst 

student housing, just east of the Eastern Michigan University campus. 

Downward adjustment 

is applied to Comparables One and Two, located in 

the CBD or commercial campus districts. 

No adjustment 

is applied to the remaining presented data, variably located, with similar or 

offsetting characteristics on an overall basis to that of the subject. 

Building Size 

The subject contains 2,271 square feet of gross building area. 

The comparable data have 

building sizes in a range from 1,686 to 7,757 square feet. 

A tenet in the real estate industry

Page 56

Gerald Alcock Company. L.L.C. 

Analysis of Value 50 

Land to Building Ratio 

These adjustments are intended to account for those sales that include some excess or 

expansion land or have significantly different land-to-building ratios relative to the subject. 

The 

subject property has a net land-to-building ratio of 3.17 to one. Upward adjustment is applied 

to Comparables One and Two, with a smaller ratios. 

Downward adjustment 

is applied to 

Comparable Four with a larger ratio. 

No adjustment is applied to the remaining presented 

data, with similar utility. 

Age and Condition/ Interior 

The subject improvement dates to 1957 with 2006 and 2013 historic remodel and 2025 partial 

interior demolition of the building interior associated with a remodel project in process. 

Interior 

restoration 

as 

of the retrospective date 

of value 

is assumed 

to equate to routine tenant 

improvement allowance, consisting 

of clean 

up, some paint, carpet, and 

ceiling work, 

to 

restore operational use to the structure for office or commercial purposes. Variable upward 

adjustment 

is applied 

to Comparables One and Three, with 

inferior updates or condition 

ratings. 

No adjustment 

is applied 

to Comparable 

Four, 

after consideration 

of 

its 

overall 

condition. Downward adjustment 

is applied to the remaining presented data, with superior 

overall condition ratings. 

Site Improvements 

The analysis assumes the subject has new site improvements for analysis purposes, in order to 

restore viable utility to the property. 

The property owner estimates a $60,000 cost to complete 

demolished 

site improvements, 

which appears reasonable. 

After consideration 

that the 

presented data have older, but functional site improvements in place, coupled with the tenet 

that remodel improvement costs are rarely fully 

recaptured in the market, yet the new subject 

improvements are substantially superior to the presented data, the appraisers apply upward 

adjustment to the presented data. 

Quality and Appeal 

In the retrospective condition, the subject building has above average quality characteristics at 

grade, given the quality of historical remodel efforts. After consideration of partially offsetting 

quality, 

considering 

interior 

differentials, 

and/or 

appeal 

characteristics, 

the 

following 

adjustments are applied. 

The appraisers note that exterior differentials are considered 

in the 

foregoing “Site Improvements” category. 

Upward adjustment to Comparables One and Three 

with average overall quality characteristics at grade; greater upward adjustment to Comparable 

Four, 

with 

similar overall quality characteristics 

in 

a multiple-level configuration with 

partial 

below-grade area; and no adjustment to the remaining presented data, with similar overall 

quality characteristics at grade.

Page 57

Analysis of Value 51 

with varying levels of finish coupled with flex, shop or open space, which simulate the subject 

dedication level in the retrospective condition. 

Ancillary Space 

The subject does not feature an ancillary space amenity. 

No adjustment 

is applied to the 

presented data, either lacking, or with ancillary benefit, not deemed to impact value. 

Amenity Level 

The subject features an average amenity level for its intended use, similar to Comparables One 

through Three, for which no adjustment is applied. Variable downward adjustment is applied to 

applied to the remaining presented data, with superior amenity level, relative to use. 

Zoning 

The subject and presented data are commercially zoned and no adjustment is warranted. 

Summary 

After all adjustments, the comparable building sale prices range from $72 to $120, with a mean 

of $100 and a median indicator of $97 per square foot. Comparables Four and Five adjust out 

of pattern at the low and high ends of the adjusted spectrum, respectively. Comparable Four is 

reported to have sold favorably to a tenant, while Comparable Five represents an active listing 

with a long market time. 

If they are discarded, the remaining presented data adjust to an 

average of about $102 per square foot. 

The appraisers resolve to a rate of $100 per square 

foot, as an appropriate indicator of subject value in the analysis at hand, before consideration 

of discount for cost to restore site improvement utility. Thus, 

2,271 sq. ft. @ $100/sq. ft. = $226,000 (rd.) 

The retrospective valuation is made as of December 31, 2025. 

The property owner's remodel 

project has stagnated from the second half of 2024 through 2025 (extending to the inspection 

date) owing 

to various zoning 

or municipal approval issues. 

Interior restoration 

as 

of the 

retrospective date of value 

is assumed to equate to routine tenant improvement allowance, 

consisting of clean up, some paint, carpet, and ceiling work, to restore operational use to the 

structure for office or commercial purposes. 

The property owner estimates a cost of $60,000 

remaining to complete proposed site improvements, which would restore functionality of the 

property, to consist of installation of conduit for electrical and fiber optic, drain tile for down 

spouts, bollards, concrete, parking striping, irrigation system, landscape, anticipating overages. 

As noted in the “Methods of Valuation” subsection of this report, because the property is in a 

partial incomplete stage, with remodel project partially accomplished, the foregoing conclusion

Analysis of Value 52 

roughly 4,200 square feet. 

Marshall Swift Cost Manual, a national index, estimates a cost of 

$8.00 to $10.00 per square foot for concrete, equating to a range from $33,600 to $42,000, 

before stripping, 

utility connection and miscellaneous site improvements. 

The appraisers 

accept the property owner's site improvement cost estimate and add for entrepreneurial profit, 

estimated at 10 percent of the estimated cost to restore site improvements, particular to the 

site, for application of reasonably discount to restore site improvements. Thus,

The appraisers conclude that the retrospective “As’ls” true cash value of the appraisal property 

by sales comparison approach, as of December 31, 2025, was: 

One Hundred Sixty Thousand ($160,000) Dollars 

This value estimate is made subject to the “General Assumptions and Limitations of Appraisal,” 

and the following “Extraordinary Assumptions” to this report. 

There are no “Hypothetical 

Conditions” to this report. 

1. 

Valuation is predicated upon the assumption that the appraisal property is free and clear of 

any environmental hazards which would materially affect value; 

if not, the value conclusion 

could be impacted; and 

2. 

Gross 

building 

and 

site 

areas 

are calculated from 

a survey, 

prepared 

by American 

Landmark Survey, PLC, dated March, 2025, corroborated by spot building measurement. 

Valuation 

is predicated upon the assumption that varying gross and/or net site building 

areas generally conform to actual conditions. 

If such is not the case, the value conclusion 

could be impacted; and 

3. 

The instant valuation is predicated upon the assumption that there have been no material 

changes 

to the property from the retrospective date 

of value 

to the date 

of property 

inspection. 

If such is not the case, the value conclusion could be impacted; and 

4. 

The appraisers have relied upon the property owner's representation of estimated cost to 

complete site improvements 

to assist 

in the analysis. 

If such estimate 

is significantly 

incorrect, the value conclusion could be impacted.

Page 59

Gerald Alcock Company, L.L.C. 

Analysis of Value 563 

for consideration of $219,000. 

Costar indicates that the property was listed by Randy Maas of 

Swisher Commercial for consideration of the same, with exposure for 18.63 months; however, 

the property reports that the property was originally listed for $399,000, and reduced over time. 

As of the retrospective date of value, the property owner expended a reported $115,000 for 

some interior work including addition of mini splits and security, as well at demolition of some 

interior partitioning and 

exterior 

site improvements. 

The appraisers’ 

retrospective value 

estimate 

is below the owner's effective investment and historical purchase price, owing to 

condition of the property at the time of retrospective value. 

The appraisers have relied upon 

current market data, correlating to the retrospective date of value. 

Estimated Marketing Period, Exposure Period 

As used herein, the definition of exposure time is as follows. 

The time a property remains on the market. The estimated length of time the property 

interest 

being 

appraised 

would 

have 

been 

offered 

on 

the 

market 

prior 

to 

the 

hypothetical consummation 

of 

a sale 

at market value on the effective date 

of the 

appraisal: a retrospective estimate based upon an analysis of past events assuming a 

competitive and open market. Exposure time is always presumed to occur prior to the 

effective date of the appraisal... 

A discussion with area brokers and review of similar sales in our company database indicates 

that exposure times can range from a few weeks to numerous years depending on availability 

of utilities, zoning parameters, size, and location of a property. Given current market conditions 

and location of the property, the appraisers consider an exposure time of 12 months to be a 

reasonable estimate for the subject property. 

As used herein, the definition of marketing period is as follows. 

The time 

it takes an interest in a real property to sell on the market subsequent to the 

date of an appraisal. Reasonable marketing time is an estimate of the amount of time it 

might take to sell an interest in real property at its estimated market value during the 

period immediately after the effective date of the appraisal... 

Marketing time is prospective and takes into account current market conditions. The estimated 

market value in this report assumes a reasonable exposure time to the market, which is normal 

for properties of this type. The marketing time is an estimated forecast of the length of time the 

property interest under analysis will be listed on the market prior to a hypothetical sale at the

Assumptions and Limitations of Appraisal 54 

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF APPRAISAL 

This appraisal is for no purpose other than property valuation, and the appraiser(s) is neither 

qualified nor attempting to go beyond that narrow scope. The reader should be aware that 

there are also inherent limitations to the accuracy of the information and analysis contained in 

this appraisal. Before making any decision based on the information and analysis contained in 

this report, 

it is critically important to read this entire section to understand these limitations. 

Appraisal Is Not A Survey 

It is assumed that the utilization of the land and improvements is within the boundaries of the 

property lines of the property described and that there is no encroachment or trespass unless 

noted in this appraisal report. 

No survey of the property has been made by the appraiser and no responsibility is assumed in 

connection with such matters. Any maps, plats, surveys, or drawings reproduced and included 

in this report are intended only for the purpose of showing spatial relationships or location. 

Sizes and dimensions should 

not 

be scaled from them. The 

reliability 

of the information 

contained on any such map or drawing is assumed by the appraiser and cannot be guaranteed 

to be correct. A surveyor should be consulted if there is any concern on boundaries, setbacks, 

encroachments, or other survey matters. 

The legal description given to the appraiser is presumed to be correct, but 

it has not been 

confirmed by a survey. 

Appraisal Is Not A Legal Opinion 

No responsibility is assumed for matters of a legal nature that affect title to the property nor is 

an opinion 

of title rendered. The 

title 

is assumed to be good and marketable. The value 

estimate 

is given without regard 

to any questions 

of 

title, 

boundaries, encumbrances, 

or 

encroachments. We are not usually provided an abstract of the property being appraised and, 

in any event, we neither made a detailed examination of it nor do we give any legal opinion 

concerning it.

Page 61

It 

is assumed 

that 

all applicable zoning and 

use regulations and 

restrictions have been 

complied 

with, 

unless 

a non-conformity has been stated, 

defined, and considered 

in the 

appraisal report. Information and analysis shown in this report concerning these items is based 

only on 

a rudimentary investigation. Any significant question should be addressed to local 

zoning or land use officials and/or an attorney. 

It is assumed that all required licenses, consents, or other legislative or administrative authority 

from any local, state, or national government or private entity or organization have been or can 

be obtained or renewed for any use on which the value estimated contained 

in this report is 

based. 

Appropriate government 

officials 

and/or 

an 

attorney 

should 

be 

consulted 

if 

an 

interested party has any questions or concerns on these items since we have not made a 

comprehensive examination of laws and regulations affecting the subject property. 

Appraisal Is Not An Engineering Or Property Inspection Report 

This appraisal should not be considered a report on the physical items that are a part of this 

property. Although 

the appraisal may contain information about the physical 

items being 

appraised (including their adequacy and/or condition), 

it should be clearly understood that this 

information is only to be used as a general guide for property valuation and not as a complete 

or detailed physical report. The appraisers are not construction, engineering, environmental, or 

legal experts, and any statement given on these matters in this report should be considered 

preliminary in nature. 

The observed condition of the foundation, 

roof, exterior walls, interior walls, floors, heating 

system, plumbing, insulation, electrical service, and all mechanicals and construction is based 

on a casual inspection only and no detailed inspection was made. For instance, we are not 

experts on heating systems and no attempt was made to inspect the interior of the furnace. 

The structures were 

not checked 

for building code violations, and 

it 

is assumed that 

all 

buildings meet applicable building codes unless so stated in this report. 

Some items such as conditions behind walls, above ceilings, behind locked doors, or under the 

ground are not exposed to casual view and therefore were not inspected. The existence of 

insulation, 

if any 

is mentioned, was found by conversation with others and/or circumstantial 

evidence. Since

Assumptions and Limitations of Appraisal 56 

The age of any improvements to the subject property mentioned 

in this report should be 

considered a rough estimate. We are not sufficiently skilled in the construction trades to be able 

to reliably estimate the age of improvements by observation. We therefore rely on circumstantial 

evidence, which may come 

into our possession (such as dates on architectural plans) or 

conversations with those who might be somewhat familiar with the history of the property such 

as property owners, on-site personnel, public records, or others. Parties interested in knowing 

the exact age of improvements on the land should contact us to ascertain the source of our 

data and then make a decision as to whether they wish to pursue additional investigation. 

The appraiser(s) has observed those parts of the mechanical equipment and systems that 

constitute an integral part of the property and that are generally visible. From such observation, 

the appraiser(s) has reported any apparent conditions that the appraiser believes might bear on 

the conclusions 

of this report. The appraiser(s) has 

not, however, tested such mechanical 

equipment and systems, and thus assumes no responsibility for their operating performance 

(unless specifically so stated in this appraisal). 

The appraiser(s) has not made a specific compliance survey and analysis of the subject to 

determine whether or not it is in conformity with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"). 

It is 

possible that 

a compliance survey of the property, together with 

a detailed analysis of the 

requirements of the ADA, could reveal that the property is not in compliance with one or more 

of the requirements of ADA. 

If so, this fact could have a negative impact upon the value of the 

property. The appraiser has no direct evidence relating to this issue and did not consider 

possible non-compliance with the requirements 

of the ADA 

in estimating the value 

of the 

property. 

Because no detailed inspection was made, and because such knowledge goes beyond the 

scope of this appraisal, any observed condition or other comments given 

in this appraisal 

report should not be taken as 

a guarantee that a problem does not exist. Specifically, no 

guarantee 

is made as to the adequacy or condition of the foundation, 

roof, exterior walls, 

interior walls, 

floors, 

heating system, 

air conditioning system, 

plumbing, 

electrical 

service, 

insulation, 

or any other detailed construction matters. 

If any interested party 

is concerned 

about the existence, condition, or adequacy of any particular item, we would strongly suggest 

that a construction expert be hired for a detailed investigation. 

Appraisal Is Not An Environmental Issues Or A Hazardous Materials Report

Page 63

Gerald Alcock Company. L.L.C. 

Assumptions and Limitations of Appraisal 57 

be taken as an indication that such a problem does not exist, however. An expert in the field 

should be consulted if any interested party has questions on environmental factors. 

No chemical or scientific tests were performed by the appraiser(s) on the subject property, and 

it is assumed that the air, water, ground, and general environment associated with the property 

present no physical or health hazard of any kind unless otherwise noted 

in the report. 

It 

is 

further assumed that the property does not contain any type of dumpsite and that there are no 

underground tanks 

(or any underground source) 

leaking 

toxic 

or hazardous materials 

or 

substances into the groundwater or the environment unless otherwise noted in the report. 

Appraisal Is Made Under Conditions Of Uncertainty With Limited Data 

As can be seen from limitations presented above, this appraisal has been performed with a 

limited amount of data. Data limitations result from a lack of certain areas of expertise by the 

appraiser(s) (that go beyond the scope of the ordinary knowledge of an appraiser), the inability 

of the appraiser(s) to view certain portions of the property, the inherent limitations of relying 

upon information provided by others, etc. 

There 

is also an economic constraint, however. The appraisal budget (and the fee for this 

appraisal) did not contain unlimited funds for investigation. We have spent our time and effort in 

the investigative stage of this appraisal in those areas where we think it will do the most good, 

but inevitably there is a significant possibility that we do not possess all information relevant to 

the subject property. 

Before relying on any statement made in this appraisal report, interested parties should contact 

us for the exact extent of our data collection on any point, which they believe to be important 

to their decision-making. This will enable such interested parties to determine whether they 

think the extent of our data gathering process was adequate for their needs or whether they 

would like to pursue additional data gathering for a higher level of certainty. 

Information (including projections of income and expenses) provided by local sources, such as 

government agencies, financial institutions, accountants, attorneys, and others is assumed to 

be true, correct, and reliable. No responsibility for the accuracy of such information is assumed 

by the appraiser(s). 

The comparable sales data relied upon 

in 

this appraisal are believed 

to 

be from 

reliable 

sources. Though all the Comparables were examined, it was not possible to inspect them all in

Page 64

Gerald Alcock Company, L.L.C. 

Assumptions and Limitations of Appraisal 58 

All values shown in the appraisal report are based on our analysis as of the effective date(s) of 

valuation stated 

in this appraisal report. (The value[s] estimated 

in this appraisal report may 

change 

in the future because of changing local or national economic conditions or capital 

money market changes.) These values may not be valid in other time periods or as conditions 

change. We 

take 

no 

responsibility 

for events, 

conditions, 

or circumstances 

affecting 

the 

property's market value that take place subsequent to either the date of value contained in this 

report or the date of our field inspection, whichever occurs first. 

Since projected mathematical models and other projections 

are based on estimates and 

assumptions, which are inherently subject to uncertainty and variation depending upon evolving 

events, we do not represent them as results that will actually be achieved. 

This appraisal is an estimate of value based on an analysis of information known to us at the 

time the appraisal was made. We do not assume any responsibility for incorrect analysis 

because of our incorrect or incomplete information. 

If new information of significance comes to 

light, the value given in this report is subject to change without notice. 

Opinions and estimates expressed herein represent our best judgment but should not be 

construed as advice or recommendation to act. Any actions taken by you, the client, or any 

others should be based on your own judgment, and the decision process should consider 

many factors other than just the value estimate and information given in this report. 

Restrictions Upon Disclosure And Use Of The Appraisal 

Disclosure of the contents of this appraisal report is governed by the Bylaws and Regulations 

of the Appraisal Institute. Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any 

conclusions as to value, the identity of the appraiser, or the firm with which he is connected, or 

any reference to the Appraisal Institute or the MAI designation shall be disseminated to the 

public through advertising media, public relations media, news media, sales media, 

or any 

other public means of communication without the prior written consent and approval of the 

appraiser. 

The appraisal report may not be used for any purpose except substantiation 

of the value 

estimated without written permission from the appraiser. All valuations in this appraisal report 

are applicable only under the stated program of use. The valuation of 

a component part of the 

property is applicable only as a part of the whole property.

Assumptions and Limitations of Appraisal 59 

Neither this appraisal report nor any part of it may be submitted to the Securities and Exchange 

Commission or to any state securities regulatory agency without the express written permission 

of the appraiser(s). 

Neither the name of the Gerald Alcock Company nor the name of the appraiser(s) nor this 

appraisal report nor any material contained in this appraisal report may be used for activities or 

transactions that are subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as

Appraisal Report Limitations 

Appraisal reports are technical documents addressed to the specific needs of clients. Casual 

readers should understand that this report does not contain 

all of the information we have 

concerning the subject property or the real estate market. While no factors we believe to 

significant but unknown to the client have been knowingly withheld, 

it is always possible that 

we have information 

of significance which may be important to others but which, with our 

limited acquaintance of the property and our limited expertise, does not seem to be important 

to us. 

Appraisal 

reports made 

for lenders 

are technical documents specifically made 

to 

lender 

requirements. Casual readers are cautioned about their limitations and cautioned against 

possible misinterpretation of the information contained in these reports. 

The appraiser should 

be contacted with any questions before this report 

is relied on 

for 

decision-making.
