<br />Summary
<br />Appellant has not specified an indicated market value.
<br />Subject is a two story office building, built in 2002. It is located in near West Acres Shopping center and Interstate 94. The location is near
<br />an office park with commensurate structures. It has adjacent amenities that make it an attractive office site. The 2023 value increased due
<br />to low sale ratios among office properties.
<br />City of Fargo and Cass County staff viewed the building with the owner. City of Fargo staff examined the value with the cost approach
<br />(5,370,000) and sales comparison approach (5,300,000). We find the current assessed value is not supportable based on our market adjusted
<br />cost model and the sales comparison approach. In addition, the property is over-assessed relative to its neighbors, and others in its competing
<br />property set. We recommend reducing the value for 2023. The sales comparison approach is summarized below.

<br />Competing Properties (Assessed Values) Summary
<br />We studied current assessments of similar properties for equalization. The
<br />search parameters are all office parcels built between 1992 and 2012,
<br />located near the subject property, measuring 5,000 to 50,000 sf, with land
<br />values between $6 and $12 per square foot. There are 51 such parcels in
<br />Fargo.
<br />The 2023 true and full value sits at or near the maximum of the competing
<br />property set. We feel that the quality of the structure relative to its
<br />competitors does not justify its position in the data set.
