I’m a fan of thought experiments (as anyone who reads this page regularly already knows). A thought experiment is a process by which one weighs the information that one has and considers the consequences. Doing this allows the experimenter the ability to make better choices and consider the underlying truths of a situation. Today we’ll apply this to the common practice of subdividing land and discover why it may be helpful (from a value perspective) to have an appraisal beforehand.

The Market Machine is an excel-based stand-alone tool for real estate appraisers and other valuers, for use on PCs (not for Mac). Market Machine uses the data that you export from your MLS or other data source. It requires 2010 or 2013 (or newer) 32-bit version of MS Office Excel. Once you buy it, you have it for your use, with no monthly or annual fee.

Town & Country Residential Appraisals

In the lending/appraisal world there is something called a “Drive-by” or “exterior only” appraisal. These are performed on a 2055 FNMA form and have a scope of work that is limited to an inspection “from the street” only. According to the scope of work, the appraiser then assumes that the interior is consistent with the exterior of the home (in condition and quality).
