AVSO Statement of Work Page 2 of 4

Water Rights: Owned water rights, if any, are to be included in the appraisal.

Minerals: Owned mineral rights, if any, are to be included in the appraisal.

Real Property Improvements: None.

Client: AVSO

Intended Users: AVSO and NPS, on behalf of the United States of America

Type of Value: Market Value

Definition of Market Value: The Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (UASFLA) defines market value as follows:

Market value is the amount in cash, or on terms reasonably equivalent to cash, for which in all probability the property would have sold on the effective date of value, after a reasonable exposure time on the open competitive market, from a willing and reasonably knowledgeable seller to a willing and reasonably knowledgeable buyer, with neither acting under any compulsion to buy or sell, giving due consideration to all available economic uses of the property.

Source: Interagency Land Acquisition Conference, UASFLA, 6th ed., Section 1.2.4, p 10, The Appraisal Foundation, 2017.

Effective Date: The effective date must be no later than 30 calendar days prior to the submission of the completed appraisal report(s), unless the AVSO review appraiser approves in advance other conditions in writing.

SECTION 4: ASSIGNMENT CONDITIONS

AVSO Statement of Work Page 3 of 4

Therefore, the appraiser should invoke USPAP’s Jurisdictional Exception Rule.

Pre-Work Meeting: A meeting with the appraiser will be conducted prior to the inspection of the property. The purpose of the meeting will be to discuss the Statement of Work.

The meeting may occur at the property at the time of the inspection or by teleconference. If by teleconference, the AVSO review appraiser will coordinate the date and time with the appraiser.

Type of Value: Market Value

Definition of Market Value: The Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (UASFLA) defines market value as follows:

Market value is the amount in cash, or on terms reasonably equivalent to cash, for which in all probability the property would have sold on the effective date of value, after a reasonable exposure time on the open competitive market, from a willing and reasonably knowledgeable seller to a willing and reasonably knowledgeable buyer, with neither acting under any compulsion to buy or sell, giving due consideration to all available economic uses of the property.

Source: Interagency Land Acquisition Conference, UASFLA, 6th ed., Section 1.2.4, p 10, The Appraisal Foundation, 2017.

Effective Date: The effective date must be no later than 30 calendar days prior to the submission of the completed appraisal report, unless the AVSO review appraiser approves in advance other conditions in writing.

SECTION 4: ASSIGNMENT CONDITIONS

Applicable Standards / Law Regulation and Policy:

Section 1.2.4 of UASFLA states that “appraisers should not link opinions of value under these Standards to a specific opinion of exposure time.” USPAP requires the appraiser to develop and report a reasonable exposure time if it is a component of the definition of market value, which contravenes the UASFLA. Therefore, the appraiser should invoke USPAP’s Jurisdictional Exception Rule.

Pre-Work Meeting: A meeting with the appraiser will be conducted prior to the inspection of the property. The purpose of the meeting will be to discuss the Statement of Work.

The meeting may occur at the property at the time of the inspection or by teleconference. If by teleconference, the AVSO review appraiser will coordinate the date and time with the appraiser.

Upon completion of the Highest and Best Use and Larger Parcel analyses, the contract appraiser must discuss the conclusions with the review appraiser.

Controversies / Issues In addition to the market value, the appraisal also needs to provide an opinion of the contributory value of the real property improvements.
