RE: 1295 Arbor Street
Dear Mr. Gerhardson:
At your request and in coordination with Mrs . Joanne Lattin
of the City Office, I inspected the property referenced
above as part of the sampling of the proposed residences
included in the City of Orono Sanitary Sewer Project.
At the time of my inspection I found no evidence of incurable
deficiencies -in. the residence. I did not make a determination
as to the suitability or functioning of the private septic
system in this property. Since it is common practice for
any buyer to expect the septic system to be in functioning
condition at the time of sale and for a period of time after
the sale, the property was appraised in that light.
The appraisal includes the two common methods of finding
value. The cost approach presents the replacement value of
the improvements less depreciation. The Market Data section
presents two sets of sales data, one with private septic
systems and one with public sanitary sewer. They are
presented as such in the data section. Finally a conclusion
of value is arrived at for each method of sewage disposal.

and other information developed during the appraisal process
the conclusions of value are as follows :

AFTER installation of Public Sanitary Sewer $66, 700
If you have any questions concerning the methods or data
used in compiling this report, please contact me.

PURPOSE OF THE APPRAISAL
The purpose of this appraisal is to estimate the fair
market value of the subject property as if free and clear
of all liens and encumbrances .
DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE
Market value has been defined as follows :
1 . The most reasonable price estimated in terms of
money which a property is expected to bring if
exposed for sale in the open market, allowing a
reasonable time to find a purchaser who buys with
knowledge of all the uses to which it is adapted
and for which it is capable of being used.
2. Frequently, it is referred to as the price at
which a willing seller would sell and a willing
buyer would buy', neither being under abnormal
pressure.
3. It is the price expectable if a reasonable time
is allowed to find a purchaser and if both seller
and prospective buyer are fully informed.
The essential difference between market price and market
value as defined above lies in the premises of intelligence,
knowledge, and willingness , all of which are contemplated
in market value but not in market price. Stated differently ,
at any given moment of time, market value connotes what a
property is actually worth, and market price what it may be
sold for.

THE APPRAISAL PROCESS
The valuation part of the appraisal process is a series of
"checks" on the appraiser' s judgment. The "checks" are
used as a guide in arriving at a final esti.mato of "vnItie".
The first appraisal procedure is an estimate of the value
of the vacant land or underlying land in the case of improved
properties , recognizing its highest, best, and most profitable
use. This, then is the "estimate of value" in vacant land.
The market place normally recognized three approaches as
guides for calculating "value" of improved properties : Any
and/or all of these three methods are used, as applicable.
The first appraisal procedure if known as the Cost Approach
to Value. This approach is an emphasis on cost, realizing
that a buyer for the property being appraised has an alterna-
tive of erecting all-new facilities of his choice. After
the cost of all-new facilities has been estimated, the
appraiser then related the subject property to the all-new
facilities , applying "depreciation" factors where applicable.
The second appraisal procedure is known as the Direct Compari-
son Approach to Value, sometimes called the "Market" approach
to value. This approach is a consideration of the subject
property as it competes with sales of other already improved
properties , with the emphasis placed on market sales and/or
offerings of competitive property. This procedure is also
the normal approach to estimating value of vacant or under-
lying land.
The third approach to value is known as the. Income Approach
to Value. In this estimate the emphasis is placed on the
investment potential for the subject property, recognizing
the past, present and future income potential for the property.
In this appraisal the value of the subject site, if vacant,
has been estimated. After that estimate all three of the
approaches to value have been considered and applied where
applicable, or explained where not applicable. Following the
application of the approaches is a correlation of the various
approaches and a statement as to the final estimate of value.
THF COST APPROACH
One method of estimating the replacement cost of a building
is the use of a National Cost Service. We have used the
Marshall Valuation Service, which is compiled and published
by Marshall and Swift Publications Company. The cost data
presented is based on years of valuation experience, thou-
sands of appraisals and continuous analysis of the cost of
new buildings . This publication has been nationally recog-
nized as an authority in the appraisal field over thirty-
five years and covers 50 states and Canada.
Current cost multipliers are furnished to keep costs up to
date by monthly supplements and revised pa es in each of
three districts (Eastern, Central, Western and local modi-
fiers convert the costs to specific localities .
Depreciation, if any, must also be recognized in arriving at
a 'value" of improved property. In real estate, depreciation
usually results from one or more of three sources . These
sources are known as physical deterioration, functional de-
preciation and environmental depreciation.
Physical depreciation is generally considered to be wear and
tear of the building due to age or from sources which cause
the building to wear out. Functional depreciation is obso-
lescence in the building due to layout , design, use of
material, etc. Economic depreciation or obsolescence is
a reduction in value of the total real estate caused by
factors outside the property itself; i.e. , from proximity
to other properties which create depreciation in the subject
property.
t
In the case of a new or proposed building there will be,
of course, no physical depreciation. Also, a prudent and
informed person should not normally "build in" functional
or economic depreciation.
THE COST APPROACH
LAND
The land value is estimated based on sales of unimproved sites
in the subject community and surrounding communities. Consider-
ation is given to the absence of public sanitary sewer value.
IMPROVEMENTS
The repalcement value is shown with the property in asis condition
and no consideration is made for incurable factors in the property .

NET REPLACEMENT VALUE OF IMPROVEMENTS $ 499350
SITE IMPROVEMENTS $ 2 ,000
SITE VALUE $ 15 ,000
REPLACEMENT VALUE BY THE COST APPROACH $ 66 ,350
MARKET DATA APPROACH
Market Data is good evidence of value because it represents
the actions of users and investors . In this approach to
value the appraiser compares the subject property with recent
sales and offerings of similar properties . This approach to
value is based on the principle of substitution, which states
that "when a property is replaceable on the market its value
tends to be set by the cost of acquiring an equally desirable
substitution". Thus , sales in the open market of properties
with generally similar characteristics and utility are good
indicators of value.
This data was adjusted to the subject property, relating
factors such as time , location, age and condition, utility
and special features, in order to indicate a value range for
the subject property on a per unit basis , usually per square
foot or cubic foot of gross building area, including land,
and when possible obtaining a gross income multiplier which
is calculated by dividing the sale price by either Lhe monthly
or yearly gross rent. This figure, times the gross income,
produces an estimate of value of that property , usually monthly
gross for residentail properties and yearly gross for income
and/or commercial properties.
This approach is a process of correlation and analysis of
similar recently sold properties . The reliability of this
technique is dependent upon, (a) the degree of comparability
of each property with the property under appraisal, (b) the
time of sale, (c) the verification of the sale data, and (d)
the absence of unusual conditions affecting the sale.
The following pages show recent market transactions indicating
date of sale, `6ale price, size of building, and the adjustments
to the subject property.

CORRELATION AND FINAL CONCLUSION
The subject property is -appraised as tho free and clear of all
encumbrances and in fee simple. The two approaches to value are
the generally accepted methods of determining the fair market
value of the subject. The cost approach develops the replace-
ment cost of the improvements at current construction costs.
The market approach reflects the current real estate resale
market and the actions of buyers and sellers in that market.
Both approaches are comparative work-ups inasmuch as the infor-
mation comes from both direct and indirect comparisons in the
market. The cost approach, typically the higher of the two, is
a "check" for the appraiser in the search thru the market data
available. The truest test of the value conclusion is the market
data approach.
Some of the properties appraised are currently experiencing
varying degrees of failure of the private septic systems.
While information was avialable to your appraiser as to the
systems which were failing and those that could be expected
to fail in the future, no consideration was given in the
analysis of "before" and "after" values . Inasmuch as each
situation would require different methods of correcting those
failures , it was- not possible to reasonably estimate cost of
the replacement of the septic system. In addition, in a
market sale, the septic system is required to be working in
proper fashion and is guaranteed as such for a 6 month period
after the sale. The value estimate in the "before" and "after"
therefore considers that the system is in working order at the
time of the inspection of the property.
The value conclusion estimate for the subject system is based
on the theory that a property with a private system would
sell in the lowest range of the estimates . Conversely , a
residence with a public sanitary system and new roadways
.would sell in the higher end of the range. Therefore, based
on the information developed in this report, it is my opinion
that the subject has a "before" and
to value as follows:
Before installation of a public sanitary system $58 ,000
After installation of a public sanitary system $66, 700
