A
A
B
B
So,
as
I
presented
in
my
information,
there
are
several
reasons
why
I
came
to
a
conclusion
of
a
value
of
966
thousand
000
for
the
subject
property.
The
first
was
relying
on
sales
within
my
neighborhood
during
the
applicable
sales
year.
Really,
there's
there's
only
one
comp,
that's
close
in
price:
that's
2710,
north
wyoming
street.
It
was
the
only
one
that
was
was
close.
B
It's
actually
approximately
25
percent
larger
than
my
home
and
on
a
lot
that
is
22
percent
larger
than
my
home
and
appears
to
be
of
similar
or
better
finish,
quality
that
property
sold
for
955
000
on
august
3rd
2020.
B
also
would
point
to
a
property
within
my
particular
kind
of
subdivision
or
cul-de-sac.
There
are
four
houses
that
are
neighboring
miner
on
my
cul-de-sac
that
were
all
built.
At
the
same
time,
this
property
at
2303,
north
underwood,
was
renovated.
B
Recently,
it
was
renovated-
I
think,
two
years
ago
or
three
years
ago.
Sorry
it
sold
after
that
renovation
for
895
000,
and
then
it
sold
this
past
december
for
899
000..
B
So
you
know
a
four
thousand
dollar
increase
in
value
point
four
percent
over
three
and
a
half
years,
and
it's
really
a
reflection
of
and
I'll
talk
about
this
later,
but
it's
a
reflection
of
the
particular
location
of
my
house,
both
with
one
of
the
houses
on
our
culver
sac
being
in
such
deplorable
condition
that
it
was
actually
condemned
earlier
this
year
with
our
houses
being
located.
B
You
know
very
close
to
lee
highway
and
with
our
houses
being
located
across
the
street
from
nbr's
construction
of
these
26
new
town
homes,
which
has
been
ongoing
for
for
some
period
of
time.
The
combination
of
those
has
really
depressed
the
value
of
our
homes,
as
I
mentioned
that
one
of
my
neighbors
homes
was
was
condemned
earlier
this
year.
Subsequent
to
that
condemnation
that
neighbor
sold
his
house-
that's
2311
north
underwood,
for
625
thousand
dollars.
So
that's
really
just
a
reflection
of
the
value
of
the
land
for
that
home.
B
B
The
other
thing
that
I
would
point
out
is
again
two
of
those
neighbors
2303
and
2307
actually
saw
a
decrease
in
the
value
of
their
improvements
over
the
last
year,
while
his
mine
increased
and
again.
I
don't
really
think
that
there's
a
logical
reason
why,
as
my
home
ages
and
my
neighbors
homes
age,
their
improvements
decrease
and
my
improvements
increase.
B
So
all
of
those
factors,
as
I
presented
in
my
written
materials,
what
led
me
to
the
conclusion
of
values:
966
000
I'll
touch
briefly
on
the
information
that
was
provided
by
the
assessor's
office,
that
led
them
to
confirm
or
recommend
confirmation
of
the
value
of
my
home.
So
first
is
rather
than
relying
on
sales
within
my
neighborhood.
B
C
B
It's
a
house
where
the
assessed
value,
if
you
look
at
this
historically,
has
never
been
remotely
near
the
sales
prices
of
that
house.
So
I
really
don't
think
that
that's
a
an
applicable
comp
and
clearly
the
assessors
and
the
market
have
some
sort
of
disagreement
on
the
value
of
that
home,
and
I
don't
think
solely
relying
on
that
that
recent
sale
again
for
a
house-
that's
not
particularly
close
to
mine,
is
isn't
particularly
better
come
frankly.
B
If
you
wanted
to
pick
other
comps
on
busy
streets,
there
are
several
homes
that
sold
on
the
highway
over
the
past
year,
those
houses
sold
for
more
than
my
neighbor's
house,
which
a
butts
lee
highway
and
again,
I
think
that's
reflective
of
the
fact
that
you
know
my
house
is
basically
sandwiched
between
a
condemned
property
and
a
construction
site.
The
market
seemed
to
to
have
at
least
a
twenty
to
thirty
thousand
dollar
impact
between
those
houses
at
solon,
lee
highway,
6132
and
6224
versus
a
similar
house
to
mine.
B
The
assessor
also
relied
on
6249
23rd
street
north,
which
is
a
home
that
was
recently
renovated
more
recently
than
mine.
It
had
new
floors,
new
bathrooms,
new
carpet,
new
painting,
new
appliances,
all
things
which
would
increase
the
value
of
that
house
relative
to
mine.
It's
also
seven
years
newer
than
mine.
It
has
gas
service
and
gas
stove,
which
my
house
only
has
electric
and
again
it's
not
on
a
busy
street,
and
it's
not
next
to
a
condemned
house.
I
know
the
materials
presented
by
the
department.
B
They
said
that
the
the
assessed
stage
of
that
house
is
older
than
mine,
but
again
I'm
not
really
sure
how
that's
possible,
given
that
it's
been
more
recently
renovated
than
mine,
and
then
the
team.
You
know,
in
my
opinion,
kind
of
randomly
picked
two
houses
that
are
within
my
neighborhood,
and
you
know
from
what
it
seemed
to
me
to
kind
of
justify
hey
look.
There
are
other
houses
within
the
neighborhood
that
have
similar
assessments
of
the
houses
have
sold
within
the
evaluation
period.
B
One
of
the
houses
hasn't
had
a
sale
since
1995
and
the
other
house
6742
26th
street,
which
sold
in
2018,
does
not
appear
to
be
a
market
sale
again
in
the
information
provided
they
they
seem
to
indicate.
Well,
you
know
this
shows
that
that
houses
are
going
for
for
more
than
my
assessed
value
and
prices
have
only
gone
up
since
then,
and
therefore
my
assessed
value
must
be
up.
But
again,
that
house
has
never
been
assessed
near
its
sold
price.
That
house
sold
for
more
than
new
houses
are
selling
for
in
the
market.
D
The
subject
property
is
a
two-story
over
the
basement
house
built
in
1978,
with
the
effective
age
of
1993
and
quality
of
very
good
plus.
The
property
has
2430
square
foot
of
living
area
four
and
a
half
bath
four
and
a
half
bathrooms
four
bedrooms,
and
it
is
situated
on
a
8245
square
foot
lot.
It
is
also
located
within
a
walking
distance
from
the
metro.
D
The
exterior
inspection
was
conducted
on
february
17
this
year
on
2019
review,
the
appellant
received
10
reduction
to
the
land
value
due
to
the
awkwardly
shaped
narrow
cul-de-sac.
His
improvement
value
was
also
decreased.
The
overall
assessment
decrease
was
then
53
400.
D
This
year
the
homeowner
provided
two
comparables,
which
he
believes
are
representative
of
his
property
and
which
sold
below
the
subject's
2021
assessed
value.
The
appellant
also
states
that
his
land
value
per
square
foot
is
above
the
average
for
the
neighborhood
other
issues
that
are
that
the
next
door,
property
2311
north
underwood,
has
been
condemned
and
that
the
ongoing
construction
of
the
new
townhouse
development
across
the
street
triggers
traffic
noise
and
debris,
which
also
negatively
impact
his
property
value.
D
Comparables
provided
by
the
appellants.
The
first
one
which
he
mentioned
2303
north
underwood,
has
a
smaller
lot
size,
675
square
feet,
square
foot
and
a
significantly
smaller
finished
living
area,
which
is
only
1930
square
feet.
D
D
There
was
no
reason
for
us
to
consider
split
level
homes
when
we
had
competing
similar
style
colonial
homes
with
finnish
basements
for
his
land
assessment
purposes.
The
appellant
brought
up
another
comp
on
his
street
2311
north
underwood,
which
was
distressed,
condemned
property
which
sold
for
625
000
in
february
this
year.
D
D
We
have
five
valid
land
sales
within
the
subject,
neighborhood
that
we
used
and
they
were
all
closed
during
the
analysis
period.
The
the
land
assessment
of
the
appellant
is
currently
the
lowest
in
his
subdivision.
D
He
received
again
he
received
the
highest
possible
negative
adjustment
to
the
length
which
I
mentioned
earlier
as
it
pertains
to
the
land
value
in
the
neighborhood.
The
range
of
value
per
square
foot
falls
between
27
and
118
dollars,
the
smaller
the
lot
is,
the
higher
value
per
square
foot
will
be,
and
the
subject
is
currently
assessed
at
77.82
dollars
per
square
foot.
D
D
The
construction
phase
that
is
situated
directly
across
the
street
from
the
subject
and
which
includes
four
town
houses,
has
been
already
completed
and
we
have
selected
in
our
opinion.
Yeah
a
planet
was
correct.
They
were
not.
There
are
no
perfect
comps
within
the
neighborhood.
That
is
the
reason
why
we
had
to
go
outside,
but
we
looked
for
the
similar
and
style
competing
homes.
All
of
them
are
colonial
style,
six,
two
four:
nine
twenty
third
streets;
very
good,
plus
quality,
effective
age
of
2005
sold
in
august
2020
for
1.65
million
dollars.
D
D
It's
an
older
sale
settled
in
april
2018,
but
for
the
lack
of
better
recent
comps
in
the
neighborhoods
as
appellant
state
that
we
did
use
it
as
a
count
just
to
show
that
it
sold
almost
three
years
ago
for
1.2
million,
and
there
is
no
indication
that
the
market
has
declined
since
and
the
subject
is
one
out
of
five
properties
located
in
the
subdivision:
whispering
wind
and
two
largest
homes
in
the
subdivision,
which
is
the
subject
itself
and
rpc01070012,
which
is
which
is
one
of
those
two
largest
homes.
D
A
Okay,
thank
you
to
both
of
you
questions
from
board
members,
mr
lawson.
E
For
the
county,
my
first
question
is
or
my
my
question
for
the
county
is:
you
gave
a
10
negative
adjustment?
Why
was
that?
Given.
D
Yeah,
so
the
subject
is
located
in
subdivision
composters
composed
of
five
homes,
and
it
is
all
the
homes
are
located
on
awkwardly
shaped,
very
narrow
cul-de-sac.
When
you
enter
the
subdivision,
there's
no
easy
way
to
maneuver
whether
you
want
to
get
into
the
the
house
or
outside
of
I
mean
outside
of
the
neighborhood.
E
Second
question:
this
is
for
the
owner.
You
mentioned
a
neighboring
property
that
sold,
I
think,
you've
said
for
625
000.
What
was
the
address
of
that
property?.
B
A
F
E
D
D
Stating
that
his
it
was
bringing
his
property
value
down,
which
is
2311
underwood,
we
had
five
valid
land
sales
that
occurred
within
the
the
analysis
period,
which
were
which
support
the
subject.
Plant
assessments
and
the
total
assessment
is
also
supported
by
the
sale
that
data
we
provided.
The
comparables
that
we
used
are
all
same
style
competing
hubs,
the
neighboring
condemned
property
is
being
renovated
and
it
has
95
000
value
per
minute
on
it
and
across
the
street
construction,
which
is
which
appellant
brought
up
has
multiple
faces
by
the
game.
D
A
B
Yeah
I'll
just
respond
to
a
couple
of
comments
in
terms
of
the
condemned
house
while
being
renovated.
Now
wasn't
during
the
assessment
period,
it
was
in
a
state
of
extreme
disrepair,
the
town
homes
across
the
street.
Yes,
there
are
four
that
face
me
that
are
complete,
but
there
are
still
22
that
are
under
construction.
B
It's
not
a
big
site,
I'm
still
impacted
by
that
and
in
terms
of
the
quality
of
the
home.
Again,
I'm
not
entirely
sure
how
the
comps
were
chosen.
There's
another
very
good,
plus
2506
north
underwood.
It
was
all
it
was
assessed
for
986
for
that,
similarly,
age
to
mine,
it
seems
to
rely
heavily
on
a
2005
assessed
home
when
my
effective
age
is
1993..
F
G
Also
just
observations,
one
is
that
the
temporary
negative
effects
of
construction
across
the
street
and
a
subpar
home
are
just
that
temporary
and
shouldn't
affect
the
overall
value
because
they,
as
they
already
have
those
kinds
of
effects,
turn
around.
G
So
that
doesn't
compel
me
what
a
little
bit
more
compelling,
however,
is
there
weren't
very
good
cops
and
the
department
did
what
it
had
to
do,
namely
get
you
know,
surrogates
that
didn't
fit
precisely
the
time,
the
the
neighborhood
and
so
forth,
but
showed
up
a
fairly
good
value
and
finally,
because
there
were
no
comps.
Nonetheless,
the
appellant's
assessment
went
up
three
and
a
half
percent,
which
is
on
the
very
low
side
of
everything
we've
seen
so
far
this
year
for
various
and
sundry
neighborhoods,
particularly
north
arlington.
G
I
think
we've
already
seen
north
arlington
so
far.
I
I
don't
know
why
it's
not
four
and
a
half
or
two
and
a
half
percent
as
an
example,
but
it's
certainly
within
the
realm
of
generally
speaking.
What's
happened
in
the
assessment
period
to
you
know
to
the
northern
part
of
arlington,
so
I
absent
anything
compelling
I
I
you
know,
I
don't
see
how
we
can
counter
what
the
department's
conclusions
have
been.
H
Yeah,
I
pretty
much
have
to
agree
with
everything
that
was
said.
I
think
the
impact
that
it
has
right
now,
the
temporary
impact
on
the
construction
and
the
condemned
house.
I
mean
condemning
houses,
you're
going
to
see
all
over
and
it
doesn't
necessarily
bring
the
value
down
for
the
neighbors.
You
know
it
just
happens
to
be
an
eyesore
for
the
time
that
is
being
qualified.
As
such
the
I
normally
try
to
see
the
map
that
is
provided
by
the
county.
I
think
this
on
this
package.
H
We
had
an
incorrect
map
on
page
seven,
which
is
for
a
different
property.
But
overall,
I
think
you
know
looking
at
the
compromise,
I
think
I'm
the
increase
that
the
property
had
from
last
year
to
this
year.
I
think
it's
more
than
reasonable
and
lower
than
some
of
the
other
problems
that
we've
seen
already
so
I'm
you
know
overall,
looking
at
the
comps
and
everything,
I'm
okay
with
the
county's
assessment
for
this
year.
H
A
You
second
by
mr
hoffman,
all
in
favor
aye
aye
opposed
okay,
it's
unanimous.
The
county
is
confirmed
at
one
million
ten
thousand
eight
hundred.
Thank
you,
mr
pollock.
A
I
Thank
you
ma'am.
I
appeared
before
the
board
last
year
and
you
all
lowered
my
assessment,
which
I
very
much
appreciate,
I'm
back
this
year
because
I
realize
there's
been
a
you
know:
there's
an
increase
in
land
value.
So
I'm
not
I'm
not
contesting
that.
I
I
you
know
I'm
not
unaware
of
the
increase
in
market
value
in
north
arlington,
but
I
am
concerned
that
my
improvement
value
has
been
unequitably
increased
relative
to
my
neighbors,
and
I
feel
that
that
I
worry
that
that
may
be
in
you
know
in
response
to
the
board
lowering
my
overall
assessment
last
year
and
an
attempt
by
the
county
to
you
know
get
a
little
bit
of
a
bump
year
by
year.
I
should
note
there
was
a
typo
in
my
application.
I
I
think
I
put
the
assessed
value
at
77.
You
know
700
000
750.
I
think
I
was
doing
this
while
my
my
infant
was
between
naps.
So
I
apologize
for
that.
What
I'm
asking
for
is
a
modest
reduction
of
five
thousand
one
hundred
and
sixty
five
thousand
hundred
sixty
dollars.
So
the
assessment
number
I
would
ask
for
is
eight
three
three
four
four
zero.
I
So
I'm
not
I'm
not
looking
for
a
big
reduction
as
I've
noted,
the
improvement
value
is
what
I
think
is
out
of
whack
in
the
materials
I
submitted.
You
see.
My
improvement
value
went
up
six
thousand
seven
hundred
dollars
this
year.
The
comparables
in
my
neighborhood
do
not
have
that
large
increase
and
mine
is
a
two-story
colonial
built
in
1951.
I
I
live
in
a
neighborhood
where
everything
was
a
two-story
colonial
built
in
1951
unless
there
was
a
knock
down
or
unless
somebody
has
made
improvements,
and
so
I've
laid
out
my
comparables,
you
know
the
the
county's
response
is
that
some
of
these
have
a
lower
effective
ages
than
mine.
I
don't
think
that
one
has
an
effect.
Two.
I
think
the
some
of
these
effective
ages
are
are.
I
And
I
should
not
suffer
for
that,
so
the
biggest
example
is
6527
north
28th
street,
which
I've
provided
photos
for
it's
around
the
block.
For
me,
it
has
an
overall
higher
assessed
value
than
mine,
but
it
has
an
effective
age
of
1966,
whereas
I
have
one
of
1975
and
that
just
boggles
the
mind,
because
that
has
an
extension
of
a
sun
room
that
is
much
nicer
than
mine
has
an
improved
kitchen.
I
That's
nice
has
a
finished
basement,
and
so
you
know
if
we're
gonna,
you
know,
I
think,
as
I
should
get
the
benefit
of
a
lower,
effective
age.
But
overall
point
is
that
my
neighbors
saw
increases
of
fourteen
hundred
dollars
fifteen
hundred
dollars,
sixteen
hundred
dollars
in
their
improvement,
land
values
and
mine
was
sixty
seven
hundred
dollars.
I
Even
if
you
look
at
the
comparables
that
the
county
has
provided,
three
of
them
are
actually
four
of
them
are
not
good,
comparable,
so
I'll
just
say
off
the
top
three
of
them
have
four
bedrooms.
So
off
of
that,
I
got
a
three
bedroom
home.
Comparing
mine
to
a
four
bedroom.
Is
you
know,
you're
gonna
have
a
higher
higher
price.
So
that's
the
house
on
little
falls
the
house
on
quantico
and
the
house
on
28th
street
north
so
and
two
of
those
are
cape
cod
style
anyway.
I
So
putting
those
aside,
the
only
ones
that
are
that
are
close
to
comparables
are
six
five.
Four
zero
twenty
27th
street
north,
which
is
this,
is
down
the
block
from
mine
and
it
does
have
a
higher
assessed
value.
It
also
has
a
higher
effective
age,
so
that
would
be
of
1981,
so
that
would
make
sense
for
overall
assessed
value.
But
if,
when
you
look
at
the
it's
increasing
its
improvement
value,
it
was
only
1900
increase
right.
So
that's
another
house
in
my
neighborhood
with
a
significantly
lower
improvement
value
increase
again.
I
Mine
was
6
700
and
then,
if
you
look
at
the
the
comparable
below
that
which
is
6528
26
road
north,
which
is
around
the
block
for
me,
its
improvement
value
was
only
eighteen
hundred
dollars.
I
would
also
note
that's
not
a
good
comparison,
a
comp,
because
that
home
has
an
addition
above
its
sun
room
that
increases
its
overall
size
and,
and
you
know,
appealability.
I
So
that's
that's.
That's
really
my
my
case,
which
is
that
I
think
the
improvement
value
is
is
again
sixty
seven
hundred
dollars
compared
to
my
neighbors,
who
are
all
below
two
thousand
dollars
increases
and
this
matters
because
you
know
over
time
all
these
incremental
increases
in
the
value
it
just
it.
It's
often
a
one-way
ratchet
and
you
know
to
have
a
chance
to
come
before
the
board.
To
get
you
know.
Equalization,
I
think,
is
important.
I
I
appreciate
the
work
that
you
all
have
done
in
the
past
on
that,
and
that
is
that
is
my
case.
Thank
you.
D
Yes,
the
subject:
property
is
a
colonial
style
house
built
in
1951
and
located
in
sycamore
gardens.
The
property
is
situated
on

square
foot
lot.
It
has
1344
square
feet
of
finished
living
area,
two
and
a
half
bathrooms
and
three
bedrooms.
The
property
is
currently
described
as
good
quality
and
effective
age
of
1975..
D
B
D
D
D
The
assessed
value
is
slightly
lower
as
compared
to
the
subject's
assessment
due
to
having
lower
effective
age
and
only
one

a
half

the
next

also
assessment
comparable.
He
provided
this
property
has
an

and
it
also
has
only
one

a
half

This
is

assessment.
Comparable.
This
property
has
an
effective

This
property
also
has

of
1961
and,
lastly,
6527
28th
street.
D
D
The
appellants
state
that
the
improvement
value
increase
does
not
equal
to
the
improvement
increases
of
the
enabling
properties
for
virginia
code.
The
properties
assessed
values
have
to
be
broken
into
two
common
components:
land
and
improvement.
The
improvement
value
increases
vary
depending
again
on.

and

lot
size
number

and

The
subject
was

Thank
you.
So
much.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Questions
from
the
board
members.
H
Yeah,
just
one
minor
question:
maybe
I
missed
it
to
mr
sullivan.
The
minor
difference
that
you're
asking
on
the
reduction
and
improvement
is
exactly
why.
H
I
Yeah
so
I
took
of
the
I
took
the
average
of
the
five
comparables,
so
I
took
their
very
increasing
increasement
increase
in
their
improvement
land
over
the
past
year.
So
for
my
five
comparisons-
and
that
comes
out
to
an
average
of
1
540.,
so
my
argument
would
be,
I
should
have
the
same.
I
should
have
the
average
increased
improvement
that
my
comparables
have
had.
G
For
the
department,
I
I'd
appreciate
it.
If
you'd
go
over
quickly
again
something
you
already
said
concerning
the
overall
assessment
versus
the
individual
improvement
or
land
value
assessment,
I
mean
I,
I.
D
Sure
so,
if
we
had
two
identical
hums
in
terms
of
effective
age
square
foot
square
footage,
then
you
would
probably
see
almost
identical
increase
rate
of
increase,
but
because
the
subject
has
higher
effective
age
than
the
comparables,
he
provided.
That's
why
you
see
the
difference
in
the
increa
increase
in
his
improvement
value
his
land
increased.
The
same
five
percent
is
the
improvement
because
the
improvement
differs
slightly
than
the
comparables
provided.
D
G
Follow
up
on
that
quickly?
What
about
the
immediate
neighbors
that
he
said
went
up?
You
know
vaguely
fifteen
hundred
improvements,
vaguely
fifteen
hundred
dollars
a
piece
and
his
was
percentage-wise
much
much
more.
Do
you
know
about
their
effective
ages?.
G
D
G
D
Okay,
so.
D
Yes,
so,
ultimately,
the
responsibility
of
our
department
is
to
make
sure
that
the
assessed
values
are
representative
of
fair
market
values
and
equitable,
based
on
the
relevant
sales
data
we
have
provided
and
the
neighborhood
analysis
we've
performed.
Both
of
these
goals
have
been
achieved.
I
asked
the
board
to
confirm
2021
assessments.
Thank
you
so
much.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
mr
sullivan.
If
you
take
a
minute
to
wrap
up,
sir.
I
Yes,
thank
you
very
much.
There
was
a
reference
to
to
land
values,
increasing
you
know
on
the
same
par.
That
is
that's
correct
and
that's
why
I'm
not
challenging
that
portion
of
it.
I'm
I'm,
I
think,
being
reasonable
here,
but
I
would
like
to
respond
to
the
assessor's
comment
that
my
increased
improvement
land
was
is
driven
by
by
higher
effective
age
than
some
of
my
comparables
one
on
one
of
my
comparables,
the
highest
effective
age
is
1966
and
it
only
had
an
increase
of
sixteen
hundred
dollars.
I
So
1966
mine,
effective
age,
is
1975
pretty
close.
But
if
you
look
at
two
of
the
comparables
that
the
county
provided
that
they're
claiming
are
comparables
to
mine,
that's
number
two
in
their
list:
six:
five,
four:
twenty
street
27th
street
north
that
has
an
effective
age
of
1981,
which
is
higher
than
my
of
age,
and
that
only
saw
an
improvement
increase
of
1900.
I
A
E
Thank
you,
madam
chairman.
First
I
want
to
thank
mr
sullivan
for
correcting
what
he's
requesting
when
I
first
reviewed
this,
I
thought
you
were
being
kind
of
aggressive
so
to
to
only
be
asking
for
a
five
grand
decrease.
I
think
is
appreciated.
On
my
part,
here's
the
way
I
looked
at
it
to
my
fellow
board
members.
E
If
you
were
to
take
this
lot
and
build
a
house
on
it
like
exists
right
now.
There
are
three
things
that
builders
are
dealing
with
and
that
is
you
now
have
to
do
these
storm
water
detention
things.
I
don't
know
what
you
call
them,
but
it's
about
20
000
per
house
we're
dealing
with
a
government.
E
That's
really
taken
a
long
time
to
review
stuff
and
there's
been
a
really
dramatic
increase
in
the
cost
of
materials,
and
so
the
way
I
analyze
this
I
didn't
look
so
much
at
comps
as
I
did-
is
a
five
grand
increase
in
the
value
of
the
building
appropriate
and
justifiable,
and-
and
I
hate
to
disappoint
you,
mr
sullivan,
but
I
believe
it
is,
I
think,
given
all
that's
going
on
for
a
building
this
quality
to
go
up
by
five
grand,
I
think
is
appropriate
with
that
I'll
be
quiet.
F
Actually,
with
barnes,
and
also
just
the
fact
that
it's
so
close
to
what
the
department
came
up
with
with
the
burden
being
on
the
appellant
to
prove
otherwise
and
the
fact
that
there's
so
many
very
similar
size
shaped
locks,
houses,
there's
just
a
lot
of
data
in
this
neighborhood
that
that
the
department
has
considered
that
I
I
tend
to
lean
towards
their
appraisal
here.
J
No,
I
think
the
county
did
a
pretty
good
job
on
the
comps
with
what
they
had
to
work
with
and
which
we
were
okay.
J
As
far
as
the
the
the
house
itself
or
the
value,
I
don't
think
it's
off
for
that
neighborhood
it's
it
doesn't
seem
to
be
out
of
a
line
on
anything
I
can
see
and
looking
at
averages
of
other
comps,
it
kind
of
creates
a
moving
target,
because,
if
you
averaged
for
every
house
based
on
other
comps
things
that
continually
be
shifting
and
then
be
further
out
of
line
averaging
does
not
work
as
a
way
to
come
up
with
the
value
difference.

D
G
For
the
department,
of
course,
I'm
looking
at
the
land
values
of
the
subject
and
the
comparables
they
seem
to
be
all
over
the
place
as
an
example
compared
with
one
and
three,
where
one
is
a
little
bit
higher
and
they're
all
in
the
same
neighborhood
in
sides,
but
yet
it's
significantly
lower
in
assessment.
G
D
Noise
adjustments
comparable
number
to
6
6
10
25th
street-
is
that
the
one
yes.
A
D
D
D
D
G
D
Yes,
most
definitely,
every
year
we
analyze
the
land
values
make
sure
that
they
make
sense.
We
do
want
them
to
be
equitable.
Of
course,.
D
F
It
looks
like
there
was
a
virtual
inspection.
Was
there
any
other
interaction
with
the
appellant?
Here
I
mean:
did
they
did
they
email?
You
did
you
have
any
I'm
just
wondering
if
he's
filling
out
the
form
sending
it
in
and
just
wants
to
take
it
straight
to
the
board
of
equalization
without
trying
to
work
through
the
department
and
understand
the
reasoning
is.
D
Yes,
we
we
always
do
the
follow-up
calls.
Once
we
receive
the
application
for
the
review
or
board
review,
we
contact
the
appellant.
We
make
up
to
three
attempts.
I
was
actually
successful.
I
did
ask
you
the
appellant
wanted
to
have
an
interior
inspection.
He
declined
and
also
I
wanted
to
bring
up
speaking
of
the
land
adjustments.
D
The
subject
also
has
10
percent.
I'm
sorry.
It
has
5
negative
adjustments.
That's
why
it's
slightly
higher
than
comp
2..
If
that
helps.
D
D
Our
department
was
able
to
provide
sales
data
that
support
the
subject's
assessments
and
by
comparing
the
2021
assessment
to
other
one-story
homes
of
similar
in
age
and
finished
living
areas.
The
subject
assessment
is
equitable
and
well
supported,
and
I
asked
the
board
to
confirm
the
2021
assessment.
Thank
you.
A
H
A
All
right
any
other
discussion,
then
I
will
move
to
confirm
the
county
at

I'll
second,
hey,
miss
hogan
is
the
second
all
in
favor.

A
Opposed
mark
are
you
okay,
then
it's

confirmed

Yep
there
we
go
and
then
do
we
have
mr

ask

A
A
C
Good
morning
board,
this
is
a
one
and
a
half
story:
single
family
home,
with
three
bedrooms:
three
bathrooms,
a
small
portion
of
a
finished
basement
in
neighborhood
507.037.
C
There
was
no
inspection
performed
due
to
covid,
but
the
property
manager
did
send
photos
of
the
interior.
So
you
can
see
the
addition,
the
updated
kitchen
one
lightly
updated
bathroom
and
the
overall
condition
of
the
property.
C
The
property
has
an
effective
age
of
1975,
which
we
think
accurately
reflects
the
condition,
the
current
condition
of
the
property.
That's
about
46
years
ago
now
there
were
some
minor
changes
made
to
the
record,
but
the
overall
total
remained
about
the
same
in
this
in
the
surrounding
neighborhoods.
Smaller
houses
are
still
commanding
pretty
large
sale
prices.
As
you
can
see
in
the
comp
sheet,
all
the
properties
are
below
1400
square
feet
above
ground
square
footage,
similar
or
less
bathrooms
and
sometimes
finished
basements.
C
There
are
a
range
of
conditions
present,
but
I
think
these
are
reflected
adequately
in
the
assessments
in
the
sale
prices
compared
to
the
subject.
Properties
assessed
value
comparable,
not
comparable.
Number
one
1609
north
stafford
street
is
a
one-story
home
with
a
finished
basement.
C
Four
bedrooms:
three
full
bathrooms
which
sold
in
september
2019
for
925,
700
and
in
the
analysis
period
and
then
sold
again
after
the
analysis
period
on
november
2020
for
1
million
61
000,
with
no
updates
made
to
the
property
just
to
show
you
know
kind
of
how
hot
the
market
is
getting
right
now,
even
for
these
smaller
homes,
comparable
number
three
2330
north
edgewood
street
is
a
strong,
comparable
sale
to
the
subject:
property
built
in
1920
with
1340
square
feet
above
ground,
two
full
bathrooms
and
an
unfinished
basement.
C
This
property
sold
for
8.49
a
little
bit
later
in
the
analysis
period
on
nov
on
september,
14
2020,
even
the
land
sales
in
the
area
are,
for
the
most
part
above
the
subject
assessment
in
the
mid
to
la
in
the
low
to
mid
800's.
So
the
department
feels
the
record
on
the
subject.
Property
is
correct
and
that
the
2020
assessment
is
fair
and
equitable
at
751
700..
Thank
you.
A
E
You
for
the
county
what
the
total
down
adjustment
was
20.
Is
that
right.
C
Oh
yeah,
so
so
they
have
a
outside
adjustment
for
old
dominion
right,
but
then
there's
also
a
location
adjustment
of
negative
15.
C
So
this
is
for
prop
these
properties
in
this
neighborhood
that
are
it's
between
old
dominion,
lee
highway
and
then
I
think
stafford
street,
so
just
think
of
it
as
like,
a
smaller
neighborhood
within
that
larger
neighborhood
that
we
can't
really
cut
off
because
there's
not
enough
sales
to
support
doing
our
analysis.
But
we
do
see
that
those
properties
in
that
kind
of
commercial
area
in
between
those
two
major
roads
do
see
lower
sales
prices
due
to
location
there.
C
Yeah,
it's
pretty
hefty,
I
mean
you
know
it
is
in
a
somewhat
undesirable
area
compared
to
where
you
could
be
if
you
just
cross
the
road.
So
we
try
to
reflect
that
in
the
land
value.
G
C
Yeah,
I
mean
it's
hard
to
find
some
of
these
smaller
properties.
If
you
look
at
the
analysis
sheet,
you
know
I
I
wanted
to
stay
away
from
two
stories,
so
you
know
trying
to
limit
myself
to
one
story,
one
in
a
half
story,
one
in
an
attic
that
still
had
small
square
footage
that
wasn't
too
updated.
You
know
some
of
these
older
properties
that
might
not
be
as
updated
and
are
smaller.
It's
difficult
to
find
a
universe
of
properties
to
you
know,
have
direct
comparables
to
those.
E
C
I
would
just
add
that
you
know
the
comparables
used
by
the
appellant
were
town
homes
and
duplexes.
I
think
that
just
kind
of
reinforces
the
value
of
a
single
family
property
that
they
couldn't
really
find
even
any
single
family
homes
to
support
their
value.
So,
for
the
reason
the
county
recommends
a
confirmation
of
the
2021
assessment
thanks.
A
H
A
A
C
Sure
so
this
is
a
three-story
end
unit,
town
home
with
three
bedrooms
and
3.5
bathrooms.
This
case
is
fairly
straightforward
and
there's
differences
between
the
units
in
fairly
court.
Whenever
a
property
sells
in
the
county
in
a
marketed,
transaction
or
permits
are
pulled
for
renovations,
it
allows
us
the
opportunity
to
update
a
record
to
account
for
these
updates
so
kitchen
and
bathroom
renovations,
mechanical
systems,
replacement,
windows
and
roofs.
C
Those
are
some
of
the
major
categories
we
see
they
feed
into
the
records
effective
age
which
controls
depreciation
on
a
property's
cost
to
rebuild
the
subject:
property
sold
in
2017.
C
C
The
flip
side
of
that
argument
is
that
for
properties
that
don't
sell,
enlisted
transactions
or
don't
pull
permits,
we
have
less
information
on
these
interiors.
Many
of
the
records
in
fairly
court,
weren't
updated
so
I'll
leave
door
hangers
throughout
the
rest
of
the
year
at
these
properties.
In
an
attempt
to
update
the
interior
information,
there
are
also
small
fireplace
differences
between
the
units.
Some
units
have
one
fireplace
and
other
units
have
two
fireplaces.
C
So
all
those
value
differences
should
be
smoothed
out
smoothed
out
on
square
footage
moving
forward
and
then
any
differences
are
going
to
be
accounted
for
by
fireplace
count
and
effective
ages.
Owned
updates
done
to
the
properties.
Mr
george's
unit
is
one
of
the
most
updated
units
in
fairly
court,
as
it
seems
from
the
sales
that
we've
seen
so
the
market
acknowledges
updates
that
are
done
to
the
properties,
and
so
these
differences
are
reflective
in
market
value.
C
There
were
some
minor
corrections
and
a
bathroom
change
done
to
the
subject
property
resulting
in
a
decrease
for
the
subject
properties
assessment
for
the
original
2021
assessment
based
on
that
and
the
strong
comparable
sales
for
for
townhomes
in
the
area.
The
department
recommends
a
confirmation
of
the
revised
2021
value
of
890
700..
Thank.
J
Just
just
confirming
that
the
difference
in
the
improvement
value
was
also
really
or
the
land
value.
Excuse
me
is
related.
Excuse
me,
the
improvement
value
is
also
related
to
the
end
unit.
C
I
don't
believe
we
have
an
n
unit
split
on
this.
Let
me
look.
A
C
Oh
yeah,
I
think,
with
the
corrections
made
to
the
subject
property
the
renovations
that
have
already
been
done
to
the
subject
property
in
comparison
to
what
we
know
about
the
other
units
in
the
the
cube
community
and
the
updates
that
will
be
made
to
the
larger
townhome
community
over
2021
to
reflect
the
updates
done.
The
department
feels
that
the
revised
2021
assessment
is
fair
and
equitable.
Thank
you.
A
All
right,
thank
you.
It's
just
among
the
board
members.
A
G
I
just
wanted
to
recognize
the
departments
of
mr
king,
in
particular.
Work
at
trying
to
equalize
understand
get
good
divisions
among
the
what
apparently
were
very
similar
improvements
until
the
same
time
stand
developer
same
piece
of
land
but
weren't
so
similar.
So
hopefully
at
least
this
part
of
that
very
large,
fair
linkedin
complex
will
be
a
lot
easier
to
understand
in
the
future.
So
I
just
wanted
to
give
out
a
shout
out
to
the
department
for
that.
A
H
Yeah,
I
think
this
is
one
of
the
cases
that
I
was
looking
a
little
more
carefully
as
far
as
the
end
units
and
inside
units
to
see
if
they
were
assessed
because
a
lot
of
times
we're
seeing
townhomes
communities,
you
know
there's
a
pattern
as
far
as
end
units
being
assessed
at
a
different
level
and
close
to
in
values.
But
you
know
I'm
satisfied
with
the
explanation
that
mr
king
provided
as
far
as
the
why
we
have
a
difference
in
value
in
this
particular
unit,
as
opposed
to
maybe
another
one
that
is
across
the
street.
H
You
know
people
make
changes,
they
get
permits
and
everything
is
going
to
affect,
and
it's
not
only
in
arlington
it's
everywhere.
I'm
I'm!
Okay
with
the
county's
assessment
this
year.
A
Hey
it's
unanimous.
The
county
is
confirmed
at
their
revised
2021
assessment
of
eight
ninety
seven
hundred
that
completes
the
calendar.
Just
any
board,
member
or
member
of
the
county
have
any
other
additional
business.
