About this file

This is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) amendment document for solicitation 140D0426Q0310. The document addresses a single question regarding conflicting instructions for an appraisal of real property located in Bethel, Alaska. The subject property is Lot 6A, Block 8, A Final Plat of Unikal'NYY Subdivision, containing 11,393 square feet, as shown on Plat No. 2016-9 in the Bethel Recording district.

The government clarified that the appraisal should be conducted as if the subject tract is vacant and for use by the BIA Alaska Regional Office for Advertised or Negotiated Sale purposes. The government confirmed that Page 1 of the Statement of Work is correct, noted that Page 2 contained a typographical error stating the property should be appraised as improved, and approved the use of a hypothetical condition to appraise the property as if vacant. The government also confirmed that a "Request_Probate attachment" included in the documentation is informative only and was included as background material from BIA's original appraisal request submission to AVSO.

Amendment Attachment 001 Questions and Answers

Solicitation – 140D0426Q0310

Question No. Question Government Response

1 Question Context: The aerial image shows improvements on the property.

Page 1 of the SOW identifies the transaction as Advertised or Negotiated Sale and the Intended use “For use by the BIA Alaska Regional Office for Advertised or Negotiated Sale purposes”.

And Page 2 says that the subject is to be appraised as an improved parcel.

But Page 10 lists Post Award Exhibits including an email confirming to “appraise as if vacant” and a “Request Probate attachment”.

For appraisals for probate, we are usually instructed to appraise the property according to the hypothetical condition that it is vacant as of the date of death.

Please clarify what is to be appraised and the intended use – and if, for probate, the date of death.

Page 1 is correct.

Page 2 is a typo, and the appraisal should be of the subject tract as if vacant. The use of a hypothetical condition to appraise as if vacant is approved.

The “Request_Probate attachment” is informative only and was included as part of the appraisal request documentation submitted to AVSO from BIA.

For clarification: The following should be appraised as if vacant and for use by the BIA Alaska Regional Office for Advertised or Negotiated Sale Purposes. Lot 6A, Block 8, A Final Plat of Unikal’NYY Subdivision Lots 6A, 6B, 6C, 7A, & 7B, Block 8 and Lots 6A & 6B, Block 9, as shown on Plat No. 2016-9 Betherl Recording district, containing 11,393 square feet
