The legal description of the property is GR 3106 L7 BLK9 1ST ADD MAPLEWOOD. The subject is a Frame Masonry Veneer house constructed in 1952. It has 2101 square feet of finished living area above grade. There are 4.00 bedrooms and 2.00 bathrooms. The Assessor has classified the structure as a Ranch 1 Story home of Fair quality construction. Page 2 of 7 Market Approach Summary The subject property has been classified as Residential for assessment purposes. Residential property value shall be determined solely by consideration of the Market Approach to Value {39-1-103(5)(a), CRS As required by 39-1-104(10.2), CRS, the market value is determined by utilizing data from the period of one and one-half years immediately prior to June 30th, 2018. If sufficient comparable valuation data is not available within the eighteen -month time period, the assessor shall use market data from the five year period immediately prior to June 30th, 2018. When appropriate, all sales are to be time adjusted to the appraisal date of June 30th, 2018. Although the appraisal date is June 30, 2018, the physical characteristics are reflective of the property as of January 1, 2019. The comparable sales in this report were selected using county records and 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 Declaration, telephone or personal confirmation interviews and physical inspections to confirm property characteristics at the time of sale. DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE: The most probable price, as of a specified date, in cash, or in terms equivalent to cash, or in other precisely revealed terms, for which the specified property rights should sell after reasonable exposure in a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, with the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and for self interest, and assuming that neither is under undue duress. {The Appraisal Institute} The market value of the property as of June 30th, 2018 is: Assessor's Indicated Value RESIDENTIAL $332,800 TOTAL: $332,800 Page 3 of 7 Time Adjusted Sales Prices By law, sales prices are time adjusted to the appraisal date of June 30, 2018. An adjustment for time is made if during the sales collection period of January 2017 to June 30, 2018 the sale prices of properties have appreciated or depreciated due to inflation or deflation. We refer to the adjustment as a 'time' adjustment. If market conditions have not changed, no adjustment is required even though considerable time may have elapsed. {C.R.S. 39-1-104...said level of value shall be adjusted to the final day of the data -gathering period.} Sales and resales of the same or similar properties are a good indication of the changes in market conditions over time. In addition, we run simple linear regression where we graph the sales and the month the sale occurred to indicate the trend of the market. This trend is tracked as a monthly rate of change. Since we consider one of the most important aspects of market value to be location, we determine our time trends by location, also known as economic area or neighborhood, and by the use of the property (vacant land, residential, commercial). 222 Sales Trend Applied was 1.236% a month NBHD: 6034 TIMEINTV Page 4 of 7 12th SI COMPARABLE 1. 2101 14TH STREET RD r GREELEY 1 4 ..R,ein•. ,iae.• �"ti; . �)°v ." ... rt • .'r• :M7. is Neiela. u; e• e efin Y�dK iti pia'.`.;� J4. aee V ta sd fide did°" 13th St 4 a Ira COM PARABLE 3 19)8 12TH ST , GREELEY 5U BJ EGT 1929 15TH ST, GREELEY All 14th Strd 15th St Page 6 of 7 COMPARABLE 2 1813 15TH ST GREELEY WELD COUNTY ASSESSOR'S Sales Comparables Market Adjustment Grid Sale Date Sale Price TmAdj Sale Price Parcel Number Account Number Street Address Subject 10/02/1997 $139,500 $141,886 096107228002 R3117186 1929 15TH ST TOTALIMPSF TOTALLANDSF NBHDANDEXT OCCUPANCY Built -As Description Quality Condition Year Built Adjusted Year Built Residential SF Baths Basement Sq Feet Basement Finish Basement Walkout Garage - Attached Garage - Detached Land OutBuilding EXCLUDECODE1 Ag Land Bonus Room - Tot SF 2101.000000 8470.000000 6034 - 01 Single Family Resid Ranch 1 Story Fair Typical 1952.000000 1952.000000 2101.000000 2.000000 1800.000000 1620.000000 0.000000 484.000000 0.000000 35574.000000 0.000000 74.000000 0.000000 0.000000 Final Market Value Final Market Value / SF $332,800.00 $158.40 Comp # �I 05/17/2018 299900.00 301593.96 096107222006 R3111486 2101 14TH STREET RD 1548.000000 9200.000000 6034 - 01 Single Family Residentie Ranch 1 Story Fair Typical 1956.000000 1956.000000 1548.000000 3.000000 1548.000000 1236.000000 0.000000 576.000000 0.000000 38640.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 ($2,000) $0 $32,185 ($5,820) $4,155 $5,960 $0 ($4,908) $0 ($3,066) $0 $0 $0 $0 $ Adjustment Gross % Adjustment Net % Adjustment Adjusted Sales Price Adjusted Sales Price / SF $26,505.56 19.2623% 8.7885% $328,099.52 $156.16 Comp# 2 10/04/2017 238000.00 262585.40 096107227005 R3116286 1813 15TH ST 1120.000000 7930.000000 6034 - 01 Single Family Residentie Ranch 1 Story Fair Typical 1952.000000 1984.000000 1120.000000 2.000000 1120.000000 850.000000 0.000000 352.000000 0.000000 33306.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $57,094 $0 $11,213 $11,950 $0 $7,042 $0 $2,268 $0 $0 $0 $0 $ Adjustment Gross % Adjustment Net % Adjustment Adjusted Sales Price Adjusted Sales Price / SF $89,568.00 34.1100% 34.1100% $352,153.40 $167.61 Comp# 3 06/05/2017 266500.00 308820.20 096107214013 R3102386 1908 12TH ST 1291.000000 12642.000000 6034-01 Single Family Residentie Ranch 1 Story Fair Typical 1957.000000 1957.000000 1291.000000 2.000000 1131.000000 1083.000000 0.000000 462.000000 0.000000 53096.400000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 ($2,500) $0 $47,142 $0 $11,032 $8,334 $0 $1,174 $0 ($17,522) $0 $0 $0 $0 $ Adjustment Gross % Adjustment Net % Adjustment Adjusted Sales Price Adjusted Sales Price / SF $47,659.35 28.3997% 15.4327% $356,479.55 $169.67 Brenda Dones Weld County Assessor 1400 N 17th Ave Greeley, CO 80631 NOTICE OF DETERMINATION RECEIVED L 1 7 211'.9 WELD COUNTY Date of Notice: 6/25/2019 Telephone: (970) 400.3650 Fax: (970) 304-6433 Office Hours: 8:00AM - 5:00PM ACCOUNT NO.

The Assessor's determination of value after review is based on the following: AL09 - 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 Jan 2017 to June 2016 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 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. Please refer to the reverse side of this notice for additional information.
