Which is most similar to the subject? How should they be weighted? If 6x is determined to be the GIM and the subject has gross income = $120,000; Value Estimate = 6 x $120,000 = $720,000 |

2nd Income Method: Capitalization Rate
value = noi/r
Example 10- 2: Recent similar property sales able slide 10 9
Capitalization Rate Range: 13.20% < R < 13.77% The cap rate choice is an educated opinion of the appraiser Which property is most similar to the subject? Note: For any two properties that you compare, the higher the cap rate, the lower the value given the same amount of NOI.
slide 10 11 , idea continued
Considerations when determining R Consider the comparables Similarity to subject Physical Attributes Location Lease Terms Operating Efficiency
Consider the comparables How is NOI determined? Stabilized NOI Nonrecurring capital outlays Lump Sum Averaged Was NOI skewed by a one-time outlay? Depending on the analyst, leasing commissions, tenant improvements, and recurring capital outlays may or may not be including in the calculation of net operating income. |

The world moves, in residential construction, at three stories. Residential structures either have to be less than three stories above the main entrance, in order for you to build them without elevators, or they have to be high-rise.
Once you start building a residential structure of concrete and steel to accommodate an elevator, your costs kick into so much higher an orbit that you have to build vastly more dwelling units per acre in order to make any money. |

WHY ONE-STORY MALLS ARE OBSOLETE IN POPULAR LOCATIONS? If the mall had enough shops to meet demand put upon it; it would be viewed by customers as too sprawling to walk. (Also, the land would be too expensive to build on at that low a density.)
HOW MANY STORIES UP OR DOWN AN AMERICAN WILL USE THE STAIRS? One. Frequently zero. FIRST COROLLARY TO THE ONE-STORY-CLIMB LAW: In a three-level mall, the main entrance should be at the second level, from which it will only be one story up or down to get to the other levels. Otherwise, people may never go to the farthest level. |

Beginning in August 2006, Roubini commented that dropping house prices could be more than enough to cause a recession, and, also, that month he commented that sub-prime lending institutions might act as the “canary” signaling an ugly housing bust. His warnings went silent due to his lack of adequate influence through out the mid 2000s (primarily due to skepticism surrounding his theories). |

What historic reference does the term “Crossing the Rubicon” come from? Briefly explain. What is the “Rubicon” that was crossed in Chapter 9? (hw 2) |
|
Definition
“crossing the Rubicon” to quantify a situation in which one arrives at a point of no return. “Crossing the Rubicon” is based on the crossing of the Rubicon River by Julius Caesar’s army in 49 BC, which was considered an act of treason. The river’s significance was in that it marked the boundary between several Roman provinces, which mean Caesar was bringing an army into neighboring provinces, and, thus, was ready to accept the consequences. Lowenstein uses the “Rubicon” as a metaphor for the Federal Reserve and Treasury’s crossing of a serious line. Lowenstein breaks down that, “Without public consideration… the Fed and the Treasury… nationalized responsibility for private obligations.” This came as a result of the Fed essentially becoming the bank of Wall Street. Further, rates were cut, which encouraged lenders to continue lending (often times risky lending practices) when the true problem was insufficient capital. |

name five underlying causes of massive decline in the value of the mortgage backed securities? (hw 2) |
|
Definition
a. Subprime Lending (similar to the predatory lending); people who could not qualify for able to receive loans regardless, resulting in a decreased ability to repay according to the terms set forth in the promissory note. b. Property Lending; common occurrence which subjects people to a hike in payment value resulting in many being unable to make the payment and forcing them into default/ foreclose. c. Subpar Amount of Assets to Capital; Many received loans when no actual property had been held as collateral. d. Pressure from Shareholders and Congress; Allowed loose regulations on loans offered and are part of what lead to the Truth in Lending Act. The results were detrimental; causing people to sign for loans they did not know well enough and/ or did not have the ability to pay. Congress ignored the issue, failing to make any efforts until after the market had already collapsed. e. Lack of Governmental Regulation; resulted in many unregulated loans that should have never been offered on the massive scale in which they were. |
