Market value is defined as: “The most probable price which a property should bring in a
competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting
prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this
definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of the title from seller to
buyer under conditions whereby:
•
•
•
•
•
Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their best interests;
A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
Payment is made in terms of cash in United States dollars or in terms of financial arrangements
comparable thereto; and
The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative
financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.” (Source: 12 C.F. R. Part
34.42(g); 55 Federal Register 34696, August 24, 1990, as amended at 57 Federal Register 12202, April

Scope of Work
To determine the appropriate scope of work for the assignment, we considered the complexity of
the property, the needs of the user, and other pertinent factors. Our concluded scope of work is described
below.
Valuation Methodology
Appraisers usually consider the use of the three approaches to value when developing a market
value opinion for real property. These are the cost approach, sales comparison approach, and income
capitalization approach. Use of the approaches in this assignment is summarized as follows:

Utilized
The sales comparison approach is the most reliable valuation method for the subject property due to the
following:
• There is an active market for similar properties, and sufficient sales data is available for analysis.
• This approach directly considers the prices of alternative properties having similar utility.
The income capitalization approach is an applicable valuation method because:
• The probable buyer of the subject would base a purchase price decision primarily on the income
generating potential of the property and an anticipated rate of return.
• There is sufficient market data regarding income, expenses, and rates o return, is available for
analysis.
The cost approach is applicable to the assignment considering the following:
• There is an active land market, making estimates of underlying land value reasonably reliable.
• The user wanted this approach to be used.
Other Research and Analysis
Additional steps taken to gather, confirm, and analyze relevant data, are detailed in individual
sections of the report.

Environmental Hazards
The concrete on the site appears to be discolored in the in the photographs. The potential exists for
impacted soil to exist in areas of historical staining on the property. However based on the use of the site
as mix of several large trucks and cars are visible on the subject property on the tenants and commercial
facility, the stains are probably oil, diesel, or radiator coolant which has leaked from trucks. Because of the
concrete the materials likely have not significantly impacted the underlying soils, and therefore would not
present a significant concern. Based on this we are not recommending an investigation of potential impacts
of the site from this source.
Ground Stability
Soils report was not provided for our review. Based on our inspection of the subject and observation of
nearby sites, there are no apparent ground stability problems. However, we are not experts in soils analysis.
We assume that the subject’s soil bearing capacity is sufficient to support the existing improvements.

Tax assessments for comparable properties range from $23.46 to $30.00 per square foot, as compared with
the subject of $30 per square foot. On balance, the subject seems to be under assessed. We anticipate if the
subject were to sell the assessment could increased substantially.
The governor of Texas, Rick Perry, signed a bill (HB 1) into law on May 12, 2006 which decreased school
taxes in the State of Texas by $0.17 for 2007 and $0.33 for 2008. However, schools maybe permitted to add
an additional of $0.04 enrichment tax, which creates a net $0.13 potential school tax reduction in 2007 and
$0.29 in 2008.
Highest and Best Use Analysis
Process
A subject property must be analyzed as if vacant and as improved in order to prepare an assessment of
highest and best use. The highest and best use of a subject property must be:
• Physically possible
• Legally permissible
• Financially feasible
• Maximally productive
Highest and Best Use as if Vacant
Physically Possible
The existing aspects of the subject property do not seem to establish abnormal limitations on
development. In general, the physical characteristics of the property and the possibility of utilities
result in practical utility suitable for an assortment of uses.
Legally Permissible
There are no legal restrictions such as easements or deed restrictions that would limit the use of the
property. The property area is zoned IR (Industrial Research), which allows for industrial,
manufacturing, wholesale distribution and storage uses. Based on the current land use pattern,
industrial uses are given more consideration in determining highest and best use of land.
Financially Feasible
There is sufficient demand of industrial use in the vicinity of the subject area. The industrial use of the
property is thought to be financially feasible. Given anticipated population and employment growth in
the subject’s area, we expect rents and improved property values to increase to a level at which
industrial use would be financially feasible in the future.
Maximally Productive
There is not another probable use of the land perceived that would create a higher land value than
industrial use. The industrial use that is allowed by zoning laws is the maximally productive use of the
property.
Conclusion
The highest and best use of the property would be development of the site for industrial use.
Improved
The subject property is developed with an industrial type building but currently vacant.
The subject property would exceed its value, as if vacant, with the existing improvements. Therefore,
this subject property would be maximally productive and at its highest and best use as improved.
Based on our analysis, there does not appear to be any alternative use that could reasonably be
expected to provide a higher present value than the current use, and the value of the existing improved
property exceeds the value of the site, as if vacant. For these reasons, continued industrial use is
concluded to be maximally productive, and the highest and best use of the property as improved.
Most Probable Buyer
Based on the characteristics of the property, the most probable buyer would be a regional investor.
VALUATION ANALYSIS
Valuation Methodology
Appraisers usually consider the use of the three approaches to value when developing a market
value opinion for real property. These are the cost approach, sales comparison approach, and income
capitalization approach.
The sales comparison approach assumes that an informed purchaser would pay no more for a
property than the cost of acquiring another existing property with the same utility. This approach is
especially appropriate when an active market provides sufficient reliable data. The sales comparison
approach is less reliable in an inactive market, or when estimating the value of properties for which no
directly comparable sales data is available. The sales comparison approach is often relied upon for owneruser properties.
The cost approach assumes that the informed purchaser would pay no more than he cost of
producing a substitute property with the same utility. This approach is particularly applicable when the
improvements being appraised are relatively new and represent the highest and best use of the land, or
when the property has unique or specialized improvements for which there is little or no sales data from
comparable properties.
The income capitalization approach reflects the market’s perception of a relationship between a
property’s potential income and its market value. This approach converts the anticipated net income from
ownership of a property into a value indication through capitalization. The primary methods are direct
capitalization and discount cash flow analysis, with one or both methods applied, as appropriate. This
approach is widely used in appraising income-producing properties.
Reconciliation of the various indications into a conclusion of value is based on an evaluation of
the quantity of available data in each approach and the applicability of each approach to the property type.
Sale Comparison Approach
The sales comparison approach develops an indication of value by comparing the subject to sales of
similar properties. The steps taken to apply the sales comparison approach are:
• Identify property sales;
• Research and assemble pertinent data for the most relevant sales;
• Analyze the sales for material differences compared with the subject;
• Reconcile the analysis of the sales into a value indication for the subject.
Our search for comparable sales focused on transactions most relevant to the subject in terms of property
type, size, location, age, quality, and transaction date.
For this analysis, we use price per square foot of rentable area as the appropriate unit of comparison
because market participants typically compare sale prices and property values on this basis. The sales
considered most relevant are summarized in the following table.

adjusted range is $32.66 to $35.23 per square foot, with an average of $34.13 per square foot. To arrive at
the indicated value, we place primary emphasis on sales 2 and 3 due to their minimal adjustments.
Value Indication Sales Comparison Approach
Adjustment Factors
The sales are compared to the subject and adjusted to account for material differences that affect value.
Adjustments are considered for the following factors, in the sequence shown below.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS
Effective Sales Price
Accounts for atypical economics of transaction, such as excess land non
reality components, Expenditures by the buyer at the time of purchase, or
other similar factors. Usually applied directly to sale price on a lump sum
basis
Real Property Rights
Leased fee, Fee simple, leasehold, partial interest, etc
Financing Terms
Seller Financing, or assumption of existing financing, at non market terms
Condition of Sales
Extraordinary motivation of buyer or seller, such as 1031 exchanges
transaction, assemblage, or forced sale.
Market Conditions
Changes in the economic environment over time that affect the appreciation
and depreciation of real estate.
Location
Market or Submarket area influences on sale price; surrounding land use
influences.
Access/ Exposure
Convenience to transportation facilities; ease of site access; visibility from
main thoroughfares; traffic counts.
Size
Inverse relationship that often exists between building size and unit value.
Parking
Ratio of parking area to land area; also known as floor area ratio (FAR)
Building to Land Area
Ratio
Ratio of building area to land area; also known as floor area ratio(FAR)
Building Quality
Construction Quality, amenities, market appeal, functional utility.
Age/Condition
Effective Age/ Physical Condition
Economic Characteristics
Non-stabilized occupancy, above below market rents, and other economic
factors, Excludes differences in rent levels that are already considered in
previous adjustments, such as for location or quality.
Issues requiring elaboration are addressed in the following paragraph.
Market Conditions
The sales took place from January 2005- May 2005. Market conditions have generally been strengthening
over this period through the effective date of value. As a result we apply upward adjustments of 2% per
year to account for this trend.
Analysis and Adjustments of Sale

Cost Approach
The cost approach develops an indication of value by estimating the cost to reproduce (or replace)
a property, as if it were new, less any depreciation, plus the land value produces the estimate of market
value. The steps taken to apply the cost approach are:
1. Estimate the land value assuming it is vacant and will be put to its highest and best use using
comparable sales data.
2.
Estimate the reproduction (or replacement) cost of the building including hard costs, soft costs,
and developers’ profit. There are three methods to do the cost estimation.
• The methods are comparative unit, unit in place, and quantity survey.
• Comparative unit- this is based on the dollar cost per unit of area or volume
• Unit in place- this is based on using unit costs for various building components or
(building units).
• Quantity survey- this method is the most detailed of the three methods. It breaks down
the individual materials and labor costs.
The primary sources of building cost data is either from local professional builders or cost data
services or published manuals such as the Marshall Valuation Service.
3.
Estimate the accrued depreciation costs and deduct it from its reproduction (or replacement) cost.
There are four techniques to use to depreciate a building. The techniques are the breakdown
method and lump-sum age/life method.
• The breakdown method uses these three categories to identified depreciation and is
attached in the financial information of the addenda.
o The first category is physical deterioration. Physical deterioration is the wear
and tear over time which can be breakdown into curable or incurable.
o Curable is a deferred maintenance that can be an easy fix such as peeling paint.
o The incurable has short lived and long lived life. The short lived incurable items
are things that need periodical replacement such as carpet. The long lived
incurables are items such as the frame and foundation fixes.
o The second category is functional obsolescence.
o Functional obsolescence is lost of property value due to the function of the
building such as poor design layout.
o Functional obsolescence is break down into curable and incurable.
o Curable functional obsolescence is subcategorized into deficiencies, defects, and
super adequacies.
o Deficiencies are the lack of items or components such as no A/C in a house.
o Defect is the items or components which are there but not enough of it is there
such as an outdated A/C.
o Super adequacy is the excess of items or components such as a commercial A/C
in a house.
o Incurable functional obsolescence depreciation value is determined by if the
costs of the item to be cured exceeding the resulting increase in the property’s
value then it is incurable.
o The third category is external obsolescence. External obsolescence is something
that is located off the subject property but affect the value of the subject
property.
o External obsolescence divides into two subcategories which is locational or
economic.
o Locational is something near your neighborhood such as a sewer treatment plant
built in the neighborhood. Economic is like mortgage rates going up or value of
house sale price going down.
• The age/ life method to estimate accrued depreciation using lump sum based on a ratio of
the property’s age to its economic life. The formula is:
4.
Accrued depreciation = (Effective age/Economic life) x reproduction cost new
Add the estimated land value to the depreciated cost of the improvements and building to arrive at
the estimate of the property’s market value.
LAND VALUE ANALYSIS
The first step of the cost approach is to develop an opinion of the subject’s land value. To accomplish
this, we analyze four sales of vacant land parcels on a price per square foot basis. The sales took place
between March 2001 and January 2004, and reflect a range of unadjusted unit prices of $0.69 to $4.32
per square foot, summarized as follows:

We compare each sale to the subject and adjust its unit price to compensate for all significant
differences that affect value. Size adjustments were required to all sales. Based on this analysis, the
sales provide a range of values from $0.81 to $3.87 per square foot with an average of $1.84 per SF.
Placing more weight on Comparable No. 2 as it is requiring minimal adjustment, with consideration of
Comparable No. 1, it is our opinion that the applicable unit value is $1.33 per square foot. This results
in an indicated land value as follows:

Analysis and Adjustment of Sales
Our rating of each comparable sale in relation to the subject is the basis for the adjustments. If the
comparable is superior to the subject, its sales price is adjusted downward to reflect subject’s relative
inferiority; if the comparable is inferior, its prices are adjusted upward. The elements of comparison are:
Time- Market Conditions
Real estate values normally change over time. The rate of this change fluctuates due to investors’
perceptions of prevailing market conditions. This adjustment category reflects value changes, if any, that
have occurred between the date of sale and the effective date of the appraisal. According to the market,
commercial land has an annual appreciation rate of 4% and it has been applied to the comparables 1 and 3.
Sale comparables 2 and 4 were not on the market.
Location
Location has a great impact on property values. This adjustment category considers general market
influences as well as a property’s accessibility and visibility from a main thoroughfare. Land Sale 4 is
located in Grand Prairie with limited access when compared to the subject. A positive adjustment of 5%
was made. Land Sale 3 has better access when compared to subject property therefore a negative
adjustment of 25% was made.
Physical Characteristics
This adjustment category generally reflects difference such as site size and availability of utilities.
Utilities
This adjustment category generally addresses any differences between available utilities. For this
analysis, all sales are similar to the subject and no adjustments were made.
Site Size
This adjustment addresses the differences between the sizes of the land. As square footage
increases, $/SF will go downward. All comparables has a positive adjustment because the comparables has
more square footage than the subject property.
COST ESTIMATION
We estimate the replacement cost new of the subject’s improvements using Marshall Valuation
Service (“MVS”). MVS includes all direct costs as well as some – but not all – indirect costs. For this
reason, we add a 24% allowance for additional indirect costs over and above those included in MVS and an
allowance for entrepreneurial incentive. As shown in the calculations below, we estimate the total
replacement cost new of the improvements to be $871,819.

To estimate accrued depreciation for the subject, we make no deductions for deferred maintenance.
Utilizing the age-life method, we estimate accrued depreciation for building improvement costs at
66.67% based on a 30-year effective age and a 45-year economic life. We use 66.67% depreciation for
the site improvements, which have shorter lives and depreciate more rapidly. In our opinion, additional
deductions for functional or external obsolescence are not necessary.

Market Rent Analysis
Contact rents usually determine income for leased space and market rent is the foundation for computing
income for current vacant space and future theoretical re-leasing of space. It is important to compare
current contract rent levels with market rent levels. To estimate market rent, we analyze comparable
rentals most relevant to the subject in terms of location, building class, size, and transaction date.
The subject property exist in the Brookhollow Industrial District that is composed of mainly older office
warehouse properties.
Rent 1 – 3000 Irving Blvd.
Rent 2 – 4930 Cash Road
Rent 3 – 2959 Irving Blvd.
Rent 4 – 8740 Diplomacy Road
Rent 5 – 8617 Ambassador Row (photo – not available)
Rental Analysis Factors
Market conditions – changes in the environment over time that affect the value of the land
Location – influence of surrounding land use
Access/Exposure – accessibility to transportation facilities; ease of site access
Size – differences in rental price that is often dependent on size of space
Building quality – construction quality
Age/Condition – Effective age and/or physical condition
Office and HVAC area – office space and a/c areas
Utility characteristics – characteristics of the comparables
Analysis of Comparable Rentals
Location – location of comparables similar to subject property and no adjustment was necessary
Access/Exposure – locations of comparables are in the same vicinity and all have access to the
same roads, so no adjustment was necessary
Size – adjustment to size was necessary due to differences in sizes of comparable properties to
subject property
Building Quality – comparables have similar building quality to subject property and no
adjustment was necessary
Age/Condition – comparable 1 and 3 were similar to subject property and no adjustment was
necessary; Comparable 2, 4 and 5 were superior and a negative adjustment was required
Office/HVAC Areas – comparables had varying size of office space and HVAC area, adjustments
were made accordingly
Utility characteristic – comparables were similar to subject property and no adjustment was
necessary
Analysis of Operating Expenses
The following summarizes our analysis.
Capitalization Rate Selection
A capitalization rate is used to convert net income into an indication of value. Selection of an appropriate
capitalization rate considers the future income pattern of the property and investment risk associated with
ownership.
Analysis of Comparable Sales
Capitalization rates from comparable sales are shown in the following table.
The capitalization range falls within the range of 5.7% to 10% for these sales with an average of 8.2%.

Band of Investment
The band of investment derives a capitalization rate from the weighted average of the mortgage and equity
demands on net income generated from the property. This method uses and estimate of standard financing
terms and an estimate rate of return on equity capital. This should be sufficient to attract investors.

Direct Capitalization Analysis
Net operating income is divided by the capitalization rate to indicate the stabilized value of the subject.
Valuation of the subject by direct capitalization is shown below.
Reconciliation and Conclusion of Value
Reconciliation involves the weighting of alternative value indications, based on the judged reliability and
applicability of each approach to value, to arrive at a final value conclusion. Reconciliation is required
because different value indications result from the use of multiple approaches and within the application of
a single approach. The values indicated by our analyses are as follows:
SUMMARY OF VALUE INDICATIONS
Cost Approach
Sales Comparison Approach
Income Capitalization Approach
Reconciled
$400,000
$545,000
$600,000
$550,000
Cost Approach
The cost approach is most reliable for newer properties that have no significant amount of accrued
depreciation. As previously discussed, the Cost Approach is judged to be inapplicable but we will use it in
our analysis.
Sales Comparison Approach
The sales comparison approach is most reliable in an active market when an adequate quantity and
quality of comparable sales data are available. In addition, it is typically the most relevant method for
owner-user properties, because it directly considers the prices of alternative properties with similar utility
for which potential buyers would be competing.
The analysis and adjustment of the sales provides a reasonably narrow range of value indications.
Nonetheless, it does not directly account for the income characteristics of the subject. Therefore, this
approach is providing support to the Income Capitalization Approach in the conclusion of the value.
Income Capitalization Approach
The income capitalization approach is usually given greatest weight when evaluating investment
properties. The value indication from the income capitalization approach is supported by market data
regarding income and expenses.
An investor is the most likely purchaser of the appraised property, and a typical investor would
place greatest reliance on the income capitalization approach. For these reasons, the income capitalization
approach is given greatest weight in the conclusion of value.

The distribution of the total valuation in the report between land and improvements applies only
under the reported highest and best use of the property. The allocations of value for land and
improvements must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used.
The appraisal report shall be considered only in its entirety. No part of the appraisal report shall
be utilized separately or out of context.
Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions as to value, the
identity of the appraisers, or any reference to the Appraisal Institute) shall be disseminated through
advertising media, public relations media, new media or any other means of communication
(including without limitation prospectuses, private offering memoranda and other offering
material provided to prospective investors) without the prior written consent of the person signing
the report.
Information, estimates and opinions contained in the report, obtained from third-party sources are
assumed to be reliable and have not been independently verified.
Any income and expense estimates contained in the appraisal report are used only for the purpose
of estimating value and do not constitute predictions of future operating results.
If the property is subject to one or more leases, any estimate of residual value contained in the
appraisal may be particularly affected by significant changes in the condition of the economy, of
the real estate industry, or of the appraised property at the time these leases expire or otherwise
terminate.
No consideration has been given to personal property located on the premises or to the cost of
moving or relocating such personal property; only the real property at the time these lease expire
or otherwise terminate.
The current purchasing power of the dollar is the basis for the value stated in our appraisal; we
have assumed that no extreme fluctuations in economic cycles will occur.
The value found herein is subject to these and to any other assumptions or conditions set forth in
the body of this report but which may have been omitted from this list of Assumptions and
Limiting Conditions.
The analyses contained in the report necessarily incorporate numerous estimates and assumptions
regarding property performance, general and local business and economic conditions, the absence
of material changes in the competitive environment and other matters. Some estimates or
assumptions, however, inevitably will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances
may occur; therefore, actual results achieved during the period covered by our analysis will vary
from our estimates, and the variations may be material.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) became effective January 26, 1992. We have not
made a specific survey or analysis of any property to determine whether the physical aspects of the
improvements meet the ADA accessibility guidelines. In as much as compliance matches each
owner’s financial ability with the cost to cure the non-conforming physical characteristics of a
property, we cannot comment on compliance to ADA. Given that compliance can change with
each owner’s financial ability to cure non-accessibility, the value of the subject does not consider
possible non-compliance. A specific study of both the owner’s financial ability and the cost to
cure any deficiencies would be needed for the Department of Justice to determine compliance.
The appraisal report is prepared for the exclusive benefit of the Client, its subsidiaries and/or
affiliates. It may not be used or relied upon by any other party. All parties who use or rely upon
any information in the report without our written consent do so at their own risk.
No studies have been provided to us indicating the presence or absence of hazardous materials on
the subject property or in the improvements, and our valuation is predicated upon the assumption
that the subject property is free and clear of any environment hazards including, without
limitation, hazardous wastes, toxic substances and mold. No representations or warranties are
made regarding the environmental condition of the subject property and the person signing the
report shall not be responsible for any such environmental conditions that do exist or for any
engineering or testing that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist. Because
we are not experts in the field of environmental conditions, the appraisal report cannot be
considered as an environmental assessment of the subject property.
33. The person signing the report may have reviewed flood maps and may have noted in the appraisal
report whether the subject property is located in an identified Special Flood Hazard Area. We are
not qualified to detect such areas and therefore do not guarantee such determinations. The
presence of flood plain areas and/or wetlands may affect the value of the property, and the value
conclusion is predicated on the assumption that wetlands are non-existent or minimal.
34. The appraisal report and value conclusion for an appraisal assumes the satisfactory completion of
construction, repairs or alterations in a workmanlike manner.
35. All prospective value estimates presented in this report are estimates and forecasts which are
prospective in nature and are subject to considerable risk and uncertainty. In addition to the
contingencies noted in the preceding paragraph, several events may occur that could substantially
alter the outcome of our estimates such as, but not limited to changes in the economy, interest
rates, and capitalization rates, behavior of consumers, investors and lenders, fire and other
physical destruction, changes in title or conveyances of easements and deed restriction, etc. It is
assumed that conditions reasonably foreseeable at the present time are consistent or similar with
the future.
36. The distribution, if any, of the total valuation in this report between land and improvements
applies only under the stated program of utilization. The separate allocations for land and
buildings must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used.
37. Possession of this report, or a copy thereof, does not carry with it the right of publication. It may
not be used for any purpose by any person other than the party to whom it is addressed without the
written consent of the appraiser, and in any event it may be used only with proper written
qualification and only in its entirety.
38. The appraiser herein by reason of this appraisal is not required to give further consultation or
testimony or be in attendance in court with reference to the property in question unless
arrangements have been previously made.
39. Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions as to value, the
identity of the appraiser, or the firm with which the appraiser is connected) shall be disseminated
to the public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media without the prior
written consent and approval of the appraiser.
