supply impartial and unbiased information in order to estimate the value of a property.
appraisal report - ANSWER-a report from a licensed appraiser that sums up a property's
market value based on collected data. Principle of Anticipation - ANSWER-The idea that the present value of a property is affected by the anticipated income or utility that property will give its property owner.
Principle of Anticipation EXAMPLE - ANSWER-Jimmy is buying a property and plans to rent it out for business purposes — his ability to make income off of rent is affecting the amount he is willing to bid on the house.
Principle of Contribution - ANSWER-The idea that a property's overall value is made up of the combined value of each of its parts. But the contributory value of an item is not always equal to the price of that item.
Principle of Contribution EXAMPLE - ANSWER-Jimmy renovated his kitchen, but was disappointed that the appraisal of his house only added part of the cost of the renovation to his house's value — Jimmy learned that his house's overall value is made up of the value of all of the parts. (The broken-down A/C affects his house's value as much as the new kitchen.)
Principle of Substitution - ANSWER-States that the value of something is affected by the cost of getting a similar (substitute) item elsewhere.
EXAMPLE: Jimmy wants to put his house for sale, and his neighbor Shane, who has an almost identical house in his neighbor, put his house up for sale — Jimmy is carefully watching Shane (and vice versa).
Principle of Change - ANSWER-Reminds us that the condition of a property, the desirability of its location, and the market in which it exists can always change, which could affect the value of the property.
EXAMPLE:
Jimmy got an appraisal for his home in 2015, but market conditions have changed so that appraisal is no longer correct.
Principles of Supply and Demand - ANSWER-States that when supply is low and demand is high, prices will increase. And if supply is plentiful and demand is low? Prices
will then drop.
EXAMPLE:
The local factory in Jimmy's town shut down, and suddenly 30% of the town put their house for sale — due to this supply increase (and demand decrease), the value of Jimmy's house decreased.
Principle of Conformity: - ANSWER-Claims that maximum value is realized when land use is in harmony with surrounding standards.
EXAMPLE:
Jimmy's house has a "farmhouse look" and so do the houses that surround his — the high value of Jimmy's house is partly a result of the fact that the houses that surround his have a similar look. Principles of Regression & Progression - ANSWER-states that the presence of higher value or lower value homes near the subject property can change its value. EXAMPLE:
Jimmy's small home is surrounded by larger, more expensive homes. The value of Jimmy's house is probably increased through the principle of progression.
DUST: four characteristics that make real estate valuable: - ANSWER-Demand: If there are multiple buyers interested in a property, the property will increase in value.
Utility: Properties need to be useful or serve some kind of purpose in order to have value to a buyer. An empty lot, for example, may not look like it has much utility, but to a
buyer who wants to build a custom home in that area, it's quite useful!
Scarcity: If the amount of housing in an area is low in supply, it grows in value.
Transferability: Whether it's government rules or a title issue, anything that limits the transferability of real estate makes it less valuable.
Comparative Market Analysis (CRM) - ANSWER-NOT an appraisal. It does, however, use information regarding recently sold homes in the area to arrive at an indication of what the fair market value of a similar property would be.

The Cost Approach (used mostly for new construction)
The Income Approach (used mostly for commercial properties)
Cost Approach (several methods used for determining value within) - ANSWER-

Unit-in-place method: takes direct and indirect costs into account, combines them into a simplified cost for a building component
Square foot method: the appraiser estimates a cost per square foot for that specific type
of building and multiplies it by the square footage of the structure
