A denial of a petition, in whole or in part, by the Board of Equalization may be appealed by
selecting one of the following three options; however, said appeal must be filed within 30 days of
the denial:
1. Board of Assessment Appeals: You have the right to appeal the County Board
of Equalization's (CBOE's) decision to the Board of Assessment Appeals (BAA).
Such hearing is the final hearing at which testimony, exhibits, or any other
evidence may be introduced. If the decision of the BAA is further appealed to
the Court of Appeals, only the record created at the BAA hearing shall be the
basis for the Courts decision. No new evidence can be introduced at the Court
of Appeals. (Section 39-8-108(10), C.R.S.)
Appeals to the BAA must be made on forms furnished by the BAA, and
such appeals should be mailed or delivered within thirty (30) days of denial
by the CBOE to:
Board of Assessment Appeals

Board of Assessment Appeals; however, a taxpayer being represented by an agent or
an attorney must submit a fee of $101.25 per appeal.
OR
2. District Court: You have the right to appeal the CBOE's decision to the District
Court of the county wherein your property is located. New testimony, exhibits or

a review of the record. (Section 39-8-108(1), C.R.S.)

3. Binding Arbitration: You have the right to submit your case to arbitration. If
you choose this option the arbitrator's decision is final and your right to appeal
your current valuation ends. (Section 39-8-108.5, C.R.S.)
Selecting the Arbitrator: In order to pursue arbitration, you must notify the
CBOE of your intent. You and the CBOE select an arbitrator from the official list
of qualified people. If you cannot agree on an arbitrator, the District Court of the
county in which the property is located will make the selection.
Arbitration Hearing Procedure: Arbitration hearings are held within sixty days
from the date the arbitrator is selected. Both you and the CBOE are entitled to
participate. The hearings are informal. The arbitrator has the authority to issue
subpoenas for witnesses, books, records, documents and other evidence. He

determined by him.
The arbitration hearing may be confidential and closed to the public, upon mutual
agreement. The arbitrator's written decision must be delivered to both parties
personally or by registered mail within ten (10) days of the hearing. Such
decision is final and not subject to review.

you and the CBOE. In the case of residential real property, such fees and
expenses cannot exceed $150.00 per case. The arbitrator's fees and expenses,
not including counsel fees, are to be paid as provided in the decision.

MARKET APPROACH SUMMARY
Real property for the tax year 2009 must be valued utilizing the level of value for the period of
one and one-half years immediately prior to July 1, 2008. A period of five years immediately
prior to July 1, 2008 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 class 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 following
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 Weld County Assessor has an established ongoing Sales Confirmation and Validation
Program for property transactions used in developing values.
The subject property has been classified as Residential for assessment purposes. Residential
property value shall be determined by appropriate consideration of the Market Approach to
Value {39-1-103(5)(a), CRS}. The Assessor has considered this approach to value for the subject
parcel.

The Assessor has carefully studied all available information, giving particular attention to the
specifics included on your protest. The Assessor's determination of value after review is
based on the following:
AL01 - Your property has been uniformly valued following Colorado law. Your protest of value has
been denied due to comparison of other similar properties which sold during the 2007/2008 time
period.
If you disagree with the Assessor's decision, you have the right to appeal to the
County Board of Equalization for further consideration, § 39-8-106(1)(a), C.R.S.
The deadline for filing real property appeals is July 15.
The deadline for filing personal property appeals is July 20.
The Assessor establishes property values. The local taxing authorities (county, school
district, city, fire protection, and other special districts) set mill levies. The mill levy
requested by each taxing authority is based on a projected budget and the property tax
revenue required to adequately fund the services it provides to its taxpayers. The local
taxing authorities hold budget hearings in the fall. If you are concerned about mill levies, we
recommend that you attend these budget hearings. Please refer to last year's tax bill or ask
your Assessor for a listing of the local taxing authorities.

Subject: Appeal of Assessor's Determination of Value — Schedule # R7417698,
Property Address — 319 Habitat Cove, Windsor, CO 80550
Dear Weld County Board:
I am writing to petition the Weld Assessor's determination of assessed value for our
residence located at 319 Habitat Cove, Windsor, CO 80550 for the tax year 2009. My
estimate of true market value for this property as of June 30, 2008 is $825,000.
Basis for Estimate of Value:
We purchased our home in March 2007 for $975,000. Since that time, and specifically
during the timeframe of 2007 through June 30, 2008, comparable residential properties in
the Windsor area have been selling for considerably less money. The Water Valley
subdivision (where our home is located) became significantly overbuilt during the 2006-
08 timeframe, and Water Valley South had a huge number of comparably priced spec
houses that were built by builders hoping to find a buyer. As we progressed into 2008,
the majority of those spec houses remained unsold (and they still are today), and many of
those builders decided to start dropping their asking prices in order to start moving some
of the finished inventory. In fact, there were only a couple of sales in Water Valley
South in our comparable price range prior to June 30, 2008, so the really drastic price
declines from that subdivision are not reflected in this valuation period.
I've compiled a table based on an Improved Property Sales Search for property sales
from 1/1/07 thru 6/30/08, and based on sales in the Windsor zip code in the range of
$600,000 to $1,000,000. This table only includes residential properties located in our
immediate Water Valley subdivision, specifically Water Valley North (Phase One),
Water Valley South, and Hilltop Estates, in order to provide the most indicative
comparison.

The table above represents a tight comparison of similar size houses in the Water Valley
subdivision, and also a good comparison of prices per finished square feet. I would
consider the properties located at 313 Habitat Bay, 301 Habitat Bay, and 465 Harbor
Court to be the most similar to our house given:
a. all three are also lake front lots;
b. 313 Habitat and 301 Habitat are also 2 story houses, while 465 Harbor is a 1 story
with a full finished walk -out garden level view of the lake; and
c. all three have a similar amount of high quality features and custom finish.
The most recent sale (June 2008) of this group was the 465 Harbor house, which was the
personal residence of a very high quality custom builder, also shows the decline in value
since the time of our purchase at $185 per ft. Applied to our home of 4,208 ft. x $185 =
$778,480. You will note that this house has 1,058 more finished sq. ft. (25% more than
ours), 3 more bedrooms and 1 additional bathroom.
Alternatively, if you use the average of the three considered most comparable at
$196 per ft. provides an estimated value of $824,768 (4,208 ft. a $196). The table
above, and these calculations would indicate that either we paid too much for our home in
2007, or property values in Water Valley have declined substantially during the
assessment period, or most likely some combination of both factors.
The table below summarizes the same six comparable sales, but you will note the average
decline in their respective actual assessed values. So it would appear that even Weld
County's assessed valuations agree that Water Valley values have declined significantly,
by an average of 18%.

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, 2009, and mailed to you on or before August 12, 2009.
Because of the volume of cases before the Board of Equalization, all cases shall be limited to 15
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.

July 28, 2009
Weld County Board of Equalization
915 10th Street, P. O. Box 758
Greeley, CO 80632
Subject: Appeal of Assessor's Determination of Value — Schedule # R7417698,
Property Address — 319 Habitat Cove, Windsor, CO 80550
Dear Weld County Board:
First, I want to thank the Board of Equalization for allowing me to present the facts on
comparably valued homes in the immediate Water Valley subdivision.
Secondly, there was one error (which I believe the assessor has now noted) — they had 4
bedrooms on their records, and we only have 3.
Basis for Estimate of Value:
We purchased our home in March 2007. Since that time, and specifically during the
timeframe of 2007 through June 30, 2008, comparable residential properties in the Water
Valley subdivision have been selling for considerably less per finished SF. The Water
Valley subdivision (where our home is located) became significantly overbuilt during the
2006-08 timeframe, and Water Valley South had a huge number of spec houses that have
dropped significantly in value.
Please refer to Attachment A — Comparable Sales Data.
Key Points regarding Attachment A:
1. This table only includes residential properties located in our immediate Water
Valley subdivision, specifically Water Valley North (Phase One), Water Valley
South, and Hilltop Estates, in order to provide the most indicative comparison.
2. Revised this table from my original appeal — kept 3 original comp sales, and after
talking with the county assessor, added 3 comps that she had used.
3. Data based on an Improved Property Sales Search for property sales from 1/1/07
thru 6/30/08.
EXHIBIT
t'thcO(
4. Of the 6 comp sales, 465 Harbor Ct. and 1367 Hilltop Circle are considered the
properties that are most similar to the subject.
5. 465 Harbor Ct. is the most recent sale (6/08), is also a lake front lot, and has the
most similar amount of high quality features and custom finish. This house has
1,058 more finished sq. ft. (25% more than ours), 3 more bedrooms and 1
additional bathroom.
6. Five of the six comps are also lake front lots.
7. Based on assessed valuations, all of the comps are valued less than the respective
purchase prices, anywhere from 12% to 32% less. It would appear that even
Weld County's assessed valuations agree that Water Valley values have declined
significantly during this timeframe.
8. Using these six comps, and the average selling price per finished SF, provides a
comparable $204 per SF, which would reflect a comparable valuation for our
home of $858,000. This would also equate to a 12% decline from what we paid,
which is on the low end of the range from ft 7 above.
9. I have also attached pictures of the comps so that you can see for yourself why we
feel the ones selected are very good comps located in the same subdivision, but
also similar in quality of finish.
I thank you for considering the data and accurate valuation for our property.
