, (x) when an opinion of highest and best use was developed by the appraiser, summarize the
support and rationale for that opinion;


Standard Rule 2-2 Cont II: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- (xi) clearly and conspicuously:

state that their use might have affected the assignment results; and

FIRREA Market Value Definition Developed by Federal Regulatory Agencies: - CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔- Market value means the most probable price which a property should bring
in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and
seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by
undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date
and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
-buyer and seller are typically motivated;
-both parties are well informed or well advised and acting in what they consider their own
best interests;
-a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
-payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements
comparable thereto; and
-the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or
creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.


Exposure time is defined in USPAP as: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- EXPOSURE TIME:
estimated length of time that the property interest being appraised would have been offered
on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market value on the
effective date of the appraisal. (Comment: Exposure time is a retrospective opinion based on
an analysis of past events assuming a competitive and open market.1)
