About this file
This is an appraisal report prepared by Dohring Ahern, Inc. for Hillsborough County, Florida's Facilities Management & Real Estate Services Department regarding a 3.67-acre multifamily development site located at 12701 North Florida Avenue in Tampa. The subject property, situated on the northeast corner of North Florida Avenue and East 127th Avenue, comprises vacant land with three previously razed church structures. The property is zoned Planned Development (PD) with an Office/Commercial (OC-20) future land use designation. Under a hypothetical condition assuming modification of the PD zoning to allow a maximum density of 20 units per gross acre, the site could accommodate 73 multifamily units. The appraisal was conducted as of April 23, 2024, with the report dated July 9, 2024. Hillsborough County purchased the property in March 2023 for $1.855 million, or $25,411 per potential unit. The property benefits from proximity to Interstate 275, a HART Line bus stop, and is located in an Opportunity Zone within a stable neighborhood showing signs of redevelopment, supported by the presence of the University of South Florida, major medical facilities, and ongoing commercial development along key arterials.
The appraisal concludes to a market value of $1,825,000 using the Sales Comparison Approach, valued at $25,000 per unit based on analysis of five comparable multifamily land sales from October 2021 through May 2024, ranging from $16,400 to $41,563 per unit after adjustments. The comparable sales analysis included properties in similar Tampa submarkets, with adjustments made for location, site size, zoning classification, and market conditions. The appraiser determined the highest and best use of the subject property to be multifamily development, citing strong demand for affordable housing in the Tampa Bay market, ongoing population growth, and relatively affordable rental rates compared to other major Florida metros. The property's availability of municipal water, sewer, and electrical services, combined with its central location within a mixed-use neighborhood, supports its development potential. The appraisal assumes 12 months of marketing and exposure time necessary for sale at market value, with the valuation based on fee simple interest under current market conditions and applicable zoning regulations.

Re: Assignment 7 Florida Ave at 127th Ave A 3.67 Acre Multifamily Development Site 12701 North Florida Avenue
Tampa, Florida 33612 Dear Mr. Menard:
Thank you for the opportunity to provide appraisal services. Based on our agreement with you, we have performed an appraisal and reported our findings in this Appraisal Report format. This report is intended to comply with the reporting requirements under Standards Rule 2.2 of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).
The depth of discussion contained in this report is specific to the needs of the client and for the intended use stated below. Dohring Ahern is not responsible for unauthorized use of this report.
The subject property is located on the northeast corner of North Florida Avenue and East 127th Avenue in Tampa, Hillsborough County. The single parcel valuation, Assignment 7, comprises approximately 3.67 gross acres of vacant, partially developed land.
The subject is located in an Opportunity Zone and the three (3) vertical church structures that were onsite have been razed. The property is zoned PD “Planned Development” with a future land use of OC- 20 “Office/Commercial”. The PD (90-0086) was entitled for 55 multifamily dwellings. The existing structures have been razed. We made a hypothetical condition assuming modification of the PD zoning to allow a maximum future land use density of 20 units per gross acre or 73 units.
In March 2023, Hillsborough County purchased the subject parcel for $1.855 million or $33,727 per residential unit.
This report is the result of the appraiser and client concurring on the appropriate valuation methods based on the subject property specifics resulting in a credible value opinion. The scope of the appraisal is addressed on the following pages, while the definition of Market Value is found at the end of this report.
The following table summarizes our relevant data and value conclusions.

Scope of Work
Scope of work is the most critical decision an appraiser will make in performing an assignment.
Solving an appraisal problem involves three steps:
1. Identifying the problem
2. Determining the solution (or scope of work)
3. Applying the solution
None of the three steps can be omitted, and each must be performed in order. To analyze the problem, the appraiser identifies seven key assignment elements: (1) client, (2) intended users in addition to the client, (3) intended use, (4) objective of the appraisal, or type of value and its definition,
(5) effective date, (6) property characteristics that are relevant to the assignment such as the interest to be valued and physical and legal characteristics), and (7) assignment conditions such as hypothetical conditions, extraordinary assumptions, and other requirements. These elements provide the framework for the assignment and allow the appraiser to identify the problem to be solved.
The second step is to determine the scope of work to solve the problem. Scope of work encompasses all aspects of the valuation process, including which approaches to value will be used; how much data is to be gathered, from what sources, from which geographic area, and over what time period; the extent of the data verification process; and the extent of property inspection, if any.
The scope of work decision is appropriate when it allows the appraiser to arrive at credible assignment results and is consistent with the expectations of similar clients and the work that would be performed by the appraiser’s peers in a similar situation.

Inspection
Jeff Hicks has inspected the property and general neighborhood. Dohring Ahern, Inc.'s professionals are not engineers and are not competent to judge matters of an engineering nature, nor has Dohring Ahern, Inc. retained independent structural, mechanical, electrical, or civil engineers in connection with the report. As such, Dohring Ahern, Inc. makes no representations relative to the condition of the improvements, if any exist. Unless otherwise noted in the report, no problems were brought to the attention of Dohring Ahern, Inc.'s professionals by ownership or management.
Unless otherwise noted, Dohring Ahern, Inc.'s professionals inspected less than 100% of the entire interior and exterior portions of the improvements. If questions regarding engineering studies are critical to the decision process of the reader, the advice of competent engineering consultants should be obtained and relied upon.
Data Research
We collected factual information about the subject property and the surrounding market. Our research may include Crexi, LoopNet, MLS and to some degree the Hillsborough County Property Appraiser’s Office. We generally researched three years from the date of our valuation including reviewing any relevant current listings. We confirmed that information with various sources such as buyers, sellers and brokers.
Methodology
In this instance, we have used one of the three traditional approaches to value, the Sales Comparison Approach. The Cost and Income Approaches are not typically used to estimate value for vacant land. The Sales Comparison Approach provided sales of similar multifamily land sites as the subject in which to estimate Market Value.
Site Description

Neighborhood Description
The neighborhood analysis provides the link between factors which influence the area as a whole and those which influence a particular property. The reason we analyze the neighborhood in the appraisal process is to determine how the four forces affecting value; social, economic, government and environmental, influence property values in the specific area in which the subject is located.
The stages of a neighborhood are generally described as follows.
➢ Growth - A period in which the neighborhood gains public favor and acceptance;
➢ Stability - A period of equilibrium without market gains or losses;
➢ Decline - A period of diminishing demand;
➢ Revitalization - A period of renewal, modernization and increasing demand.

The subject neighborhood is generally defined as south of Fletcher Avenue, east of Armenia Avenue, north of Waters Avenue and west of Bruce B. Downs Boulevard. The development character along Busch Boulevard is commercial with retail and office as the primary uses. One noticeable trend in the area is the conversion of single-family homes to office use, primarily owner-occupied.
The subject neighborhood is largely built out with commercial development along the main arterials, such as Busch Boulevard, Nebraska, Fowler and Fletcher avenues with supporting residential development.
Single-family homes in the area generally range from 1,200 to 1,700 square feet, excluding extremes.
The table on the following page provides demographics and key facts in a one-mile radius of the subject property. Population within the radius is 13,458. The median age is 37.6 and the median household income is $36,874. There are 879 businesses and 7,060 employees in the radius. White collar employment is 48.5%, blue collar is 31.5%, and services round out the remaining 20.0%. The unemployment rate in the radius is 3.6%.
Fowler Avenue reflects mixed commercial, having the majority of the national retailers including University Square Mall located at the northwest quadrant of Fowler Avenue and Bruce B Downs Boulevard. University Mall was purchased by RD Management for $29.5 million in 2014. The site comprises a total of 96 acres.
Construction began in early 2016 redeveloping the west side of the mall, dividing the former JCPenney space between three new anchor tenants on two floors. Dillard’s will also be moving from its current location in the mall to the vacant former Macy’s space. Two free-standing restaurants outparcels are planned along Fowler Avenue.
Ne re-use includes Diamond View launched Vū, a 10,000 square foot virtual production studio in a former anchor space at the mall. The new studio has LED Volume or curved LED screens to replace green screens.
The former Sears site was purchased by a Chicago developer Core Spaces who plans a $60 million student housing project to be known as Hub Tampa. The 4.5 acre site was purchased for $6.17 million with plans for373 units, 887 bed student housing development.
Fowler Avenue is the main access to MOSI. It also provides secondary access to the USF campus, and the area’s major hospitals. Fletcher Avenue reflects mixed commercial, and is the main access to the major hospitals and the USF campus. There is a 12,000 square foot Pepin Heart Hospital & Research Institute that was developed on the USF campus by University Community Hospital.
US Highway 41/Nebraska Avenue reflects mixed commercial and industrial uses. There are numerous unanchored retail buildings along Nebraska Avenue, many built in the 1960s and 1970s. Auto repair shops and neighborhood used car lots are also a prevalent use in the subject neighborhood.
Bruce B Downs Boulevard reflects mostly general commercial uses, and is a major north/south connector the east/west corridors and the neighborhoods supporting uses.
It is likely that the neighborhood will continue to facilitate commercial growth along these corridors.
To a larger extent, the subject neighborhood is impacted by USF. With an enrollment of approximately 60,000 at its four campuses, USF trails only the University of Florida, located in Gainesville, in number of students.
The school offers a full curriculum, including several doctoral programs and, second to the University of Florida, has the largest medical school program in the state. Because the school has a large commuter population and due to the variety of programs offered, the neighborhood has become more diverse than typical university areas. The school is expected to continue to expand, especially in the medical-related fields. This should continue to have a positive impact on the neighborhood and surrounding area.
There are few developable commercial sites along the areas corridors. The university has ample developable land on-site, but none which would be sold off. The university has recently built a new research center and upgraded their entrance to the campus. A $10-million, 45,000 square foot Chester H.
Ferguson Hall was developed on the campus by the USF College of Business Administration. There is a research office park on the south side of Fowler Avenue south of the university. This space is considered R&D, or service center space.
Newer development in this area includes the 234,000 square foot USF-Carter Research Park, developed by USF and Carter Development, which will be two buildings on 22 acres on Spectrum Boulevard. H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center has developed a $9-million, 71,000 square foot facility on Magnolia Drive.
Busch Gardens is the state's fifth largest tourist attraction, with reported attendance in excess of 2.0 million per year. The park including Adventure Island was purchased in October 2009 by Blackstone Group for $2.3 billion (including Sea World) from Anheuser-Busch InBev.
There are two relatively new student housing projects, the Province and Sterling North, located on the west and east side of N. 42nd Street, north of Fletcher Avenue just north of USF. These properties reflected 1970s vintage apartments, Campus Walk Townhomes a 296 unit project and Springwood Apartments which comprised 57 units. The combined sites comprised 23.19 acres. The buyer was Dinerstein Companies from Houston. These improvements were razed to make way for Sterling North Campus a student housing project. The project includes five-bedroom townhomes and 1-4 bedroom apartments. This LEED certified project comprises 206 units with 704 beds.
The subject neighborhood is considered to be stable with some signs of redevelopment. No significant expansion or decline is evident. The outlook for the neighborhood is expected to remain positive in the foreseeable future.
Our neighborhood description, also called an area of influence, is defined as a group of complimentary land uses. Districts are a type of market area characterized by homogeneous property uses. In broader terms, the market area can encompass one or more neighborhoods and districts or both. A market area reflects similar properties that effectively compete with the subject property. The foregoing residential sales trends and demographic data provide a snapshot of the neighborhood.
Please refer to the Highest and Best Use section of this report for subject-specific market trends.
Economic Drivers
Per Q2 2024 National Economic Outlook prepared by PNC: “The U.S. economy added a strong 275,000 jobs in February, according to a survey of employers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
However, there were big downward revisions to job growth in January and February of a combined 167,000. Over the past three months job growth has averaged 265,000, well above the pre-pandemic pace. The private sector added 223,000 jobs in February, up from 177,000 in January.
The unemployment rate rose to 3.9% in February from 3.7% in the previous three months. The unemployment rate has been below 4% for more than two straight years, the longest-such stretch since the late 1960s. Average hourly earnings rose just 0.1% in February from January, and wage growth in January was revised lower, to 0.5% from 0.6%; there was also a downward revision to wage growth in December. On a year-over-year basis average hourly earnings were up 4.3% in February, down from 4.4% in January (after revisions). Softening wage growth is contributing to a slowing in inflation.
In late 2022 PNC incorporated a near-term recession into its baseline US economic forecast. This recession call was based on an aggressive tightening in monetary policy in 2022 and into 2023 as the Federal Reserve raised the fed funds rate in an effort to slow economic growth and push back against the highest inflation in 40 years. But instead of recession the economy strengthened in the second half of 2023, and real GDP ended last year up 3.1% from the end of 2022. The labor market was also very strong, with average monthly job growth of 250,000 in 2023, well above the pre-pandemic pace, and an unemployment rate of below 4%. And inflation slowed throughout 2023 even as economic growth accelerated, although it remains somewhat above the Federal Reserve’s 2% objective.
Job growth will slow somewhat this year as economic growth softens, and the unemployment rate will gradually increase to above 4% by the end of this year. But this is still historically low, and the US economy should avoid recession. With softer wage growth as the unemployment rate rises and weaker growth in rents, inflation should slow to the Federal Reserve’s 2% objective by early 2025.
Tampa Bay ranks well with other cities in Florida relative to composite Index, grocery items, housing, utilities, transportation, health care and goods and services. Moreover, the Tampa market continues to be competitive in a MSA comparison and relatively affordable from a cost of living index perspective.”
COVID-19
A highly virulent pandemic of respiratory disease caused by the novel Coronavirus (abbreviated COVID-19) evolved into a global presence in Q1 2020. COVID-19 can cause mild to severe illness with persons 65 and older most severely impacted. Florida single vaccination rate is 69.15%, slightly less than the US in general.
With the vaccine and boosters available nationwide for some time, a more hopeful attitude is emerging. Offices, restaurants and general socializing have generally normalized. More recently, subsequent variants have resulted in increased infections but not deaths. Hospitalizations continue with the unvaccinated. Schools are open with masking rules in Florida gone.
The majority of the market data in this report took place after the start of pandemic. Therefore, the impact of COVID on the subject, if any, is inherently addressed by the market data.
Highest and Best Use
According to the Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, highest and best use is defined as: The reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property that is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible and that results in the highest value. The four criteria the highest and best use must meet are physically possible, legally permissible, financially feasible and maximally productive.
Alternatively, the probable use of land or improved property, specific with respect to the user and timing of the use, that is adequately supported and results in the highest present value.
Source: The Appraisal of Real Estate 15th Edition
When a site is improved, we must recognize that the highest and best use may differ from the existing use; however, the existing use will continue, unless and until, land value (at its highest and best use) exceeds the total value of the property in its present use. The definition of highest and best use recognizes the contribution of a specific use to the community or to individual property owners.
The determination of highest and best use results from the appraiser's judgment and analytical skill;
i.e., determination of highest and best use is an opinion, not a fact to be found. In appraisal practice, the concept of highest and best use is the premise upon which value is based. In the context of investment value, "most profitable use" is another alternative term but the degree of risk must be considered.
The highest and best use concept requires an analysis of the subject as if it were vacant and also as improved to determine if the land is more valuable as vacant than the property as improved. There are four criteria that must be met. The highest and best use must be 1) physically possible; 2) legally permissible; 3) financially feasible; and, 4) maximally productive. These criteria are generally considered sequentially and the analysis may indicate more than one use.

Physically Possible
Avenue in Tampa, Hillsborough County. More generally, the parcel is located north of East Fowler Avenue and south of East Fletcher Avenue. The rectangular subject site comprises 3.67 gross acres.
The subject site, given its size and configuration, is well suited for a variety of development. All utilities are available to the property, further promoting its potential.
Average daily traffic is the total volume passing a point or segment of a roadway facility, in both directions, during a 24-hour period. A reported 20,800 cars per day pass along North Florida Avenue nearby the subject. A traffic count map of the submarket is presented on the following page.

Legally Permissible
The subject is zoned PD, “Planned Development”, by Hillsborough County. PD zoning is approved on a site specific basis. The following amended final conditions of approval dated December 2000 are shown below. A maximum of fifty five (55) dwelling units shall be allowed for residential. This equates to a density of approximately 15 units per acre. These improvements have since been razed.
The property has an OC-20 “Office/Commercial 20” future land use.
We made a hypothetical condition assuming modification of the PD zoning to allow a maximum future land use density of 20 units per gross acre or 73 units.
Financially Feasible/Maximally Productive
Those uses which are financially feasible and that use which is maximally productive are generally closely related. Any use that results in a net return to the land after satisfying the return to the improvements is considered to be financially feasible; however, that use which returns the maximum dollars to the land is considered the use which is maximally productive.
Based on a Q1 2024 multifamily report by Marcus and Millichap, “Delivery volume slated to peak.
Responding to a strong inflow of new residents that reduced metro vacancy to the low-2 percent range, developers broke ground on a host of apartments in Pasco County and Tampa proper during 2021 and 2022. Approximately 7,900 of those units will come to fruition this year, capping off a historic run that began in 2018.
Fortunately, Tampa’s Class A vacancy rate was on par with its long-term average at the end of last year, and recent in-migration trends are expected to continue through 2024, translating to demand for new units. A high-2 percent unemployment rate will play a role in supporting the latter dynamic, as it will require growing firms and those that have recently relocated to the area to hire from outside the market with increased frequency.
Further brightening the outlook for soon-to-be delivered units, a pullback in starts appears underway, partially driven by rising local insurance costs. With only a handful of projects slated for 2025 delivery at the onset of this year, incoming inventory should be absorbed over time.
Various investment strategies can be readily executed. Contrasting other major markets nationally, Tampa registered a relatively equal share of Class A/B transactions and Class C trades last year. This trend suggests opportunities to acquire 100-plus-unit assets, and smaller properties should be comparable in 2024.
The dynamic, along with the metro’s encouraging growth prospects, will appeal to both private and institutional capital, preserving a diverse buyer pool. Those seeking larger assets will scour Tampa proper, where newer properties and older garden-style communities remained available below $300,000 and $200,000 per unit, respectively, last year.
Private buyers with an eye for smaller Class C complexes may look to Pinellas County, where some of the metro’s highest rents generate strong demand for the area’s stock of lower cost apartments.”

The following charts reflect influencers on the multifamily market including employment trends, supply and demand and rent trends. Demand for housing continues to be relatively strong in the Tampa Bay market, particularly for affordable housing. Increases in interest rates have increase the barrier to entry to home ownership for many. Similarly, inflationary pressures have exacerbated this trend.

Market Position of Subject
To determine the market position of the subject, we have conducted a SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats). Identifying aspects of the subject under these four categories provides qualitative insights on the market position of the subject relative to its competitive set and provides additional context for the selection of comparables and adjustments.
Strengths
• Good urban infill location along North Florida Avenue.
• Proximity to Interstate 275.
• HART Line bus stop.
Weaknesses
• Traditional lending underwriting scrutiny is starting to increase for multifamily product.
Opportunities
• Strong demand for affordable housing within the submarket.
Threats
• Existing/established multifamily product within the submarket.
It is our opinion that the highest and best use of the subject property is multifamily development. A typical buyer would be a local or regional multifamily developer. With the highest and best use identified, we can proceed with our valuation.
Valuation
Sales Comparison Approach

Land Sales Analysis
The preceding sales were confirmed to offer the best indication of value of the subject site via the Sales Comparison Approach. A number of sales were examined, and in the final analysis they were narrowed to the five most comparable transactions. We have researched sales specifically multifamily sites in the general subject market area.
There are several units of comparison generally employed in the analysis of multifamily land. In this instance, the market dictates the most appropriate index is price per unit. The adjustment categories include location, site size, zoning and utilities.
All of the transactions were financed at market terms by third party financial institutions; hence, no adjustments for financing were required. If atypical financing were involved in the transaction, the appraiser would determine if those terms had a quantifiable effect on the sale price necessitating an adjustment.
Each transaction was confirmed to be arm's length between willing buyers and sellers; therefore, no adjustments for abnormal conditions of sale were necessary. However, if a listing is included in the analysis, a downward adjustment is considered to reflect a typical cushion for negotiations.
Nonetheless, the amount of adjustment, if any, would depend on the asking price as it relates to the market at that time. Some transactions might include a bank sale sometimes referred to as "short sale".
An adjustment will be made if warranted based on confirmation of that transaction.
Adjustments for time and price trends attempt to quantify changes in market conditions between the date of each sale and the date of the appraisal, based on current market conditions and available properties. All of the transactions are relatively timely, taking place from October, 2021 to May, 2024, the latter of which is a listing. Adjustment for this category would be based on any quantifiable appreciation or depreciation, typically identified through paired sales analysis.
Adjustments for location typically are associated with the general demographics of the area and property specific influences such as traffic counts, ingress/egress, proximity to linkages such as interstates and overall characteristics of an area.
Site size is an adjustment in which comparables site size is compared to the subject. Depending on the market segment, variation in site size can have effect up to a point on the price per square foot index.
Typically, if a comparable site is larger than the subject site, an upward adjustment is applied to reflect economies of scale. Conversely, if a comparable site is smaller than the subject site, a downward adjustment was applied. This category can also include adjustments for parcels that may have off-site retention and reflect a fully buildable lot.
Zoning is an important consideration in land sales analysis as it specifies the development potential of a given parcel. In this category, the comparables’ zoning classification relative to allowable uses, building setbacks and other restrictions are compared to the subject. Generally speaking, zoning classifications that allow more uses and flexible development are superior.
The availability of municipal services, specifically water and sewer, is an important attribute to a typical site. The adjustment would be applied if the comparable has a different availability of municipal services as the subject. This is especially true for parcels that may need to have municipal lines extended to the property at a cost.
In this instance, an upward adjustments were applied to Comparables 1 and 2 due to their inferior location as compared to the subject. Conversely, downward adjustments were applied to Comparable 5 because of its superior location as compared to the subject.
An upward adjustment was applied to Comparables 4 due to its larger site size as compared to the subject. An upward adjustment was applied to Comparable 2 because of its agricultural zoning at the time of sale.
After adjustments, the sales range from $22,266 to $37,406 per unit, with a mean of $27,652 per unit.
Based on the relative merits of each sale, but placing greater emphasis on the most recent closed sales Comparables 2 and 3; we have concluded to value of the subject site at $25,000 per unit. Our math is as follows:
73 Potential Multifamily Units x $25,000/Unit = $1,825,000
“As Is” Market Value via Sales Comparison Approach $1,825,000
Summary and Reconciliation

Avenue in Tampa, Hillsborough County. The single parcel valuation, Assignment 7, comprises approximately 3.67 gross acres of vacant, partially developed land.
The subject is located in an Opportunity Zone and the three (3) vertical church structures that were onsite have been razed. The property is zoned PD “Planned Development” with a future land use of OC- 20 “Office/Commercial”. The PD (90-0086) was entitled for 55 multifamily dwellings. The existing structures have been razed. We made a hypothetical condition assuming modification of the PD zoning to allow a maximum future land use density of 20 units per gross acre or 73 units.
In March 2023, Hillsborough County purchased the subject parcel for $1.855 million or $25,411 per potential unit.
In conclusion, all emphasis has been placed on the Sales Comparison Approach to value. Therefore, we have determined the following value opinion as of April 23, 2024 as follows:
“As Is” Fee Simple Interest Market Value
ONE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS
($1,825,000)
