The top three floors were renovated in 2014. Currently, the main floor is a vacant <br />office space. The finish appears dated and in need of a refresh. The top three floors are renovated apartments. The finish appears new and <br />modern. There is no parking available for tenants. The property sits on the corner of NP avenue and Broadway. There are no vacancy issues <br />with the apartments. The subject was viewed by City of Fargo and Cass County staff. The building was re-measured by City of Fargo staff. <br /> <br />The value per unit stands out as atypical of apartment buildings. However, the price per unit of mixed use properties varies dramatically, <br />and we feel it is not a reliable unit of comparison for the subject. Staff examined the market value with the cost approach, sales comparison <br />approach and a modified income approach (office and apartments were valued with different methodologies). We estimate the value range <br />to be between $2,756,000 (income pro-forma) and $3,708,000 (sales comparison approach). The sales comparison approach is summarized <br />below. <br /> <br /> <br />Comparable Sales Summary <br />Address Size Size <br />(Gross) Units Year <br />Built <br />Sale <br />Date <br />Sale Price <br />(with SPUN) <br />Sale Price <br />(Adjusted) Price $/SF Price $/SF <br />Gross Price / Unit <br />623 NP Ave N 10,000 10,000 4 1910 04/2022 1,128,500 1,270,406 127.04 127.04 317,602 <br />516 Broadway N 19,017 28,846 8 1926 10/2021 2,006,800 2,537,349 133.43 87.96 317,169 <br />303 Broadway N 4,875 7,750 2 1905 05/2021 1,026,800 1,289,136 264.44 166.34 644,568 <br />228 Broadway N 9,312 13,512 8 1900 01/2021 934,800 1,086,610 116.69 80.42 135,826 <br />602 Main Ave 8,393 14,593 2 1895 09/2020 1,263,400 1,498,264 178.51 102.67 749,132 <br />Subject 25,997 32,845 18 1893 3,708,000 3,708,000 142.63 112.89 206,000 <br /> <br />Competing Properties (Assessed Values) Summary <br />We studied current assessments of similar properties for equalization. The <br />search parameters are all parcels with mixed use occupancies in the <br />downtown map zone. Because of the extensive remodeling in 2014, we did <br />not exclude new properties. We found 66 such parcels. The average year <br />built is 1928. Eight of these parcels were built after 2000. <br /> <br />The 2023 true and full value sits between the median and 75th percentiles <br />in all units of comparison. <br /> <br /> <br /> Value /SF Value /SF <br />GBA <br />Value /SF <br />Impr Only <br />Maximum 319 205 301 <br />90th Percentile 166 123 155 <br />75th Percentile 137 99 124 <br />Median 109 76 95 <br />25th Percentile 84 61 74 <br />10th Percentile 67 54 60 <br />Minimum 48 35 40 <br /> Subject 117.42 92.94 113.53 <br /> <br />
