CBOECOMM 010998 Page 6 MARKET APPROACH SUMMARY Real property for the tax year 2013 must be valued utilizing the level of value for the period of one and one-half years immediately prior to June 30th, 2012. A period of five years immediately prior to July 1, 2012 shall be utilized to determine the level of value if adequate data is not available from such one and one-half year period to adequately determine the level of value for a lass of property. Said level of value shall be adjusted to the final day of the data -gathering period. Changes occurring between base years are not to be accounted for until the fol lowi ng level of value is implemented, other than additions, change in use, detrimental acts of nature, damage due to fire, etc., creation of a condominium, new regulations restricting or increasing the use of the land, or a combination thereof {39-1-104(11)(b)(I),CRS}. The comparable sales in this report were selected using county records, as wel l as the Multiple Listing Services. The Weld County Assessor's Office has verified that the comparable sales are arms -length transactions based on review of the Real Property Transfer Dedaration, telephone or personal confirmation interviews and physical inspections to confirm property characteristics at the time of sale. There have boon ten sales in the subject's development during the base period. The sales develop a range of from $60 to $78 dollars per square foot. The average sale price is $65.37per square foot. Based upon investigation and analysis, it is the opinion of the appraisers that the value of $65 per square foot accurately reflects the market value of the subject property.

The Assessor has gathered income information from local commercial properties for the time frame of January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012. This information, combined with statewide and industry -wide data, is used to determine typical income and expenses for various property types. In condusion of the IncomeApproach, the Assessor has considered both groups of data and has put more emphasis on the local factors and data than the state and national data. This information was then applied to the subject property to arrive at an appropriate Income Approach Value. TOTAL I NCOME VALUE FOR THE SUBJECT PROPERTY $41,000 Typically this type of property is owner occupied. If an owner is not occupying their unit, they rent them for an amount that will cover their expenses, HOAfeesand property taxes. This type of property is built to derive the income from selling the individual condo units. No income information wasavailablefrom the subject development. For this analysis income information from two similar developments will be used. The Garage Unitz development averages $7.50 per square foot with 13% vacancy. The Garage Town development averages $6.00 per square foot with 5% vacancy. For this analysis we will use $6.75 per square foot and 10% vacancy. 958 Vacancy EGI Expense Mgnt Rsry Assoc Fees Total NOI Indicated Value $6.75 10% 5% 3% $6,466.50 $646.65 $5,819.85 $290.99 $174.60 $480 $945.59 $4,874.26 $41,000.00 assmnt' mill levy cap 0.29 0.1007 rounded Eff Cap 0.09 0.1192 CBOECOMM 010998 Page 10 CONCLUSION Real property for the tax year 2013 must be valued utilizing the level of value for the period of one and one-half years immediately prior to June 30th, 2012. A period of five years immediately prior to lily 1, 2012 shall be utilized to determine the level of value if adequate data is not available from such one and one-half year period to adequately determine the level of value for a dass of property. Said level of value shall be adjusted to the final day of the data -gathering period. Changes occurring between base years are not to be accounted for until the fol lowi ng level of value is implemented, other than additions, change in use, detrimental acts of nature, damage due to fire, eta, creation of a condominium, new regulations restricting or increasing the use of the land, or a combination thereof {39-1-104(11)(b)(I), CRS}. The subject property has been classified as Commercial Property for assessment purposes. Commercial property value shall be determined by appropriate consideration of the Cost Approach, Market Approach, and Income Approach to value. {39-1-103(5)(a) C. R. S.} The Assessor has considered all throe approaches to value for the subject parcel on appeal. FINAL RECONCILIATION As the subject property is owner occupied as is most of the other units in the development, the Income Approach is given minimal weight. Considering there are ten sales, in the subject development during the base period, the Market Approach is given the most weight. After consideration of the cost, market and income approaches, it is the Weld County Assessor's opinion that the value of $62270, most accurately reflects the value of the subject property in Weld County for the 2013 tax year.

Unit B-6 should be zoned residential as it is treated as an extension to my (residential) garage. That is how it is insured, as an extension to my homeowner policy The fact that it (B-6) is zoned commercial is ridicules, as we are not allowed to do commercial activities in our unit! Thank you for your consideration, Earl McLaughlin 4463 Pali Way Boulder, CO 80301 e tdidd t July 22, 2013 CLERK TO THE BOARD PHONE (970) 336-7215, EXT 4226 FAX (970) 352-0242 WEBSITE: www.co.weld.co.us 1150 O STREET P.O.

This hearing will be held at the Weld County Administration Building, Assembly Room, 1150 0 Street, Greeley, Colorado. You have a right to attend this hearing and present evidence in support of your petition. The Weld County Assessor or his designee will be present. The Board will make its decision on the basis of the record made at the aforementioned hearing, as well as your petition, so it would be in your interest to have a representative present. If you plan to be represented by an agent or an attorney at your hearing, prior to the hearing you shall provide, in writing to the Clerk to the Board's Office, an authorization for the agent or attorney to represent you. If you do not choose to attend this hearing, a decision will still be made by the Board by the close of business on August 5, 2013, and mailed to you on or before August 12, 2013. Because of the volume of cases before the Board of Equalization, most cases shall be limited to 10 minutes. Also due to volume, cases cannot be rescheduled. It is imperative that you provide evidence to support your position. This may include evidence that similar homes in your area are valued less than yours or you are being assessed on improvements you do not have. Please note: The fact that your valuation has increased cannot be your sole basis of appeal. Without documented evidence as indicated above, the Board will have no choice but to deny your appeal. If you wish to obtain the data supporting the Assessor's valuation of your property, please submit a written request directly to the Assessor's Office by fax (970) 304-6433, or if you have questions, call (970) 353-3845. Upon receipt of your written request, the Assessor will notify you of the estimated cost of providing such information. Payment must be made prior to the Assessor providing such information, at which time the Assessor will make the data available within three (3) working days, subject to any confidentiality requirements.
