A rich witch would like to invest her stashed cash into a party store building on South Campus Drive. She's not just a witch that knows how to fly, but a very educated witch who also knows a lot about math and real estate. There are three other party store buildings that sold recently in the area and sell their own specialty product. Here's the information that the witch collected: Building #1 Building #2 Building #3 Candy store Costume store Pumpkin store Subject property (party store) Recent sale price $900,000 $1,000,000 $800,000 22.000 25,000 Square feet 26,000 Annual rent per square foot $5.00 30,000 $4.00 $4.00 $4.50 If you can, do the math in Excel with correct referencing to cells with intermediate results. This will allow you to avoid rounding errors. Otherwise, increase decimal places - the more the better! Say, 6 or even higher. First, the witch calculated the potential gross income for each property projected for the coming year based on the rent per square foot per year estimated for the coming year. She also calculated the three buildings' implied gross income multipliers. Round the dollar amounts to whole dollar, and the multipliers to 2 decimal places. Don't use the $ sign. Building #1 Building #2 Building #3 Subject property Potential gross income $ $ $ $ Gross income multiplier Then, the educated witch identified which of these will be treated as comparable properties for the valuation of the subject property. Those are Buildings #1 and #2. They will be treated as equally important in determining the subject property's market value. She used that information to calculate the subject property's appropriate gross income multiplier and its estimated current market value. Round multiplier to 2 decimal places, and the dollar amount to whole dollar & ROUND to nearest thousand (e.g., if you got 1,234,567 then type 1,235,000). Don't use the $ sign. Subject property's gross income multiplier Subject property's estimated current market value $ The witch did additional analyses. For example, if she places a higher importance on Building #2, then the estimated market value of the subject property will be . (Type "higher" or "lower".) Then the witch picked up her high-speed broomstick and flew away to get her stashed cash. And she lived happily ever after.
