A denial of a petition, in whole or in part, by the Board of Equalization must be appealed within thirty (30)

options for appeal:
1. Appeal to Board of Assessment Appeals: You have the right to appeal the County Board of

support of your valuation. If the decision of the Board of Assessment Appeals is further appealed to
the Court of Appeals pursuant to C.R.S. §39-8-108(2), only the record of proceedings from your
hearing before the Board of Assessment Appeals and your legal brief are filed with the appellate
court.
All appeals to the Board of Assessment Appeals filed after August 10, 2019, MUST comply with the
following provisions of C.R.S. §39-8-107(5):
(5)(a)(I) On and after August 10, 2019, in addition to any other requirements under law, any petitioner

case of an abatement, and not to the Board of Assessment Appeals, the following information, if applicable:
(A) Actual annual rental income for two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year;
(B) Tenant reimbursements for two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year;
(C) Itemized expenses for two full years including the base year for the relevant property tax year; and

appeal with the Board of Assessment Appeals not more than ninety days after receipt of the petitioner's
request, the following information:

(B) The names of any commercially available and copyrighted publications used in calculating the value of

subsection (5) by the deadline specified in subparagraph (II) of said paragraph (a), the County may move
the Board of Assessment Appeals to compel disclosure and to issue appropriate sanctions for
noncompliance with such order. The motion may be made directly by the County Attorney and shall be
accompanied by a certification that the County Assessor or the County Board of Equalization has in good
faith conferred or attempted to confer with such petitioner in an effort to obtain the information without action
by the Board of Assessment Appeals. If an order compelling disclosure is issued under this paragraph (c)
and the petitioner fails to comply with such order, the Board of Assessment Appeals may make such orders
in regard to the noncompliance as are just and reasonable under the circumstances, including an order
dismissing the action or the entry of a judgment by default against the petitioner. Interest due the taxpayer
shall cease to accrue as of the date the order compelling disclosure is issued, and the accrual of interest
shall resume as of the date the contested information has been provided by the taxpayer.

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:
CM06 - The Assessor staff has requested additional information to properly review your property's
value. Because we have not received this information, we have no choice but to deny any
adjustments.
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.

Re: 1001 50th Ave, Greeley
Schedule Numbers: 95910222022
Dear Ms. Dones,
We represent, GREELEY MULTIFAMILY DST, the owner of the above -
captioned property, and are tendering this correspondence on its behalf.
This letter shall serve as a formal written protest of the real property notice of
valuation for the above -captioned properties for the 2019 tax year.
We believe the current year actual value assigned to the above -captioned schedule
numbers is excessive and should be reduced for the following reasons:
1. The value of $54,581,417/$189,519/unit assigned to the property for 2019,
which is an increase of 53.61% over the 2018 value, is excessive and should be reduced. This
288 unit apartment complex is located in Greeley Colorado. It was acquired in December, 2015
for $36,000,000. The 2019 assigned suggests market appreciation of 52% from the acquisition
date to June 30, 2018. While we do not find market support for a 1%/month time adjustment,
even utilizing a 1% per month time adjustment from acquisition to June 30, 2018 would only
indicate a value of $46,800,000. We did not find a lot of good comparable sales in Greeley. The
Greeley sales were mostly of student housing or section 8 subsidized housing. One Fort Collins
comparable indicated a high -end of the range of value of $158,333/unit. Value indicators are
approximately between $46,800,000 and $48 million. Petitioner respectfully requests that the
value of the subject be reduced to $45,504,000/$158,000/unit.
2. The value of the subject property, based upon information currently available
and subject to further revision, is excessive and should be reduced.
Pursuant to C.R.S. §39-5-121.5, the taxpayer respectfully requests that the
Assessor provide its undersigned legal representative with the data utilized by the Assessor
to establish the 2019 value for the Subject Property within seven working days after receipt
of this request.
