Final Value Section Explanation

Estimate Explanation Explanation
Cost Estimate Value derived by adding the land value to the estimated replacement cost new of each building and improvement, less the loss in value from all sources of physical deterioration and obsolescence.
Market Estimate Value derived by comparing recently sold properties (comps) that are similar to the subject property, to the subject. Adjustments, derived from an analysis of the market, for characteristic differences between each comp and the subject are made. These adjusted sale prices are then correlated into a value indication for the property. The adjustments made should reflect the contributory value for each characteristic deemed to be appropriate to the subject’s market.
MRA Estimate Multiple Regression Analysis is a statistical tool that can be used to develop a valuation model for delineated market areas, usually a neighborhood or group of neighborhoods referred to as a model area. Multiple Regression Analysis allows for defining the relationship between property characteristics and sale prices. Property characteristics contributing to value are identified and the summed contributory value of each, as defined in the model, becomes the value estimate from this approach.
Weighted Estimate The weighted average of the adjusted sale prices of the comparable properties. A weighted average is a mathematical method of computing an average of a set of numbers in which some elements of the set carry more importance or weight than others. The adjusted sales are weighted by the degree of comparability numbers where the lowest weights are given the most weight in calculation.
Indexed Estimate Prior year’s final value trended by a factor derived from a statistical analysis of market trends affecting the property in a given market area using sales data from the previous 18 months.
Value Method Override Reason Explanation
COST   Value derived by adding the land value to the estimated replacement cost new of each building and improvement, less the loss in value from all sources of physical deterioration and obsolescence.
IDXVAL   Prior year’s final value trended by a factor derived from a statistical analysis of market trends affecting the property in a given market area using sales data from the previous 18 months.
MKT   Value derived by comparing recently sold properties (comps) that are similar to the subject property, to the subject. Adjustments, derived from an analysis of the market, for characteristic differences between each comp and the subject are made. These adjusted sale prices are then correlated into a value indication for the property.

PRIOR   If the market is stable, the county appraiser may select the appraisal estimate developed for the prior year.
OVR 2024 PUP Payment-Under-Protest (PUP) appeal from the year state that did not change from that year.
OVR 24 BOTA BOTA appeal result from the year stated that did not change from that year.
OVR 24 Informal EQ Hearing Informal Appeal result from the year stated that did not change from that year.
OVR 25 Informal EQ Appeal Informal Appeal result from the current year and may be changed in a future year.
OVR 5% CAP per KSA 79-1460 Value for current appraisal has been capped at 5% increase because of a prior year appeal per KSA 79-1460.
OVR Cost Override 95% of the Cost Estimate rounded to the nearest $10.
OVR Current value is within model parameters Commercial property that prior year's value is still within the current year model parameters and did not warrant a change in value.
OVR Data Correction Data was corrected on the record after the creation of value notice that affected the current year appraised value.
OVR Four (4) Year Index Prior year’s final value trended by a factor derived from a statistical analysis of market trends affecting the property in a given market area using sales data from the previous 4 years.
OVR Income Value derived for the present worth of future benefits to be derived from the income produced over the remainder of the property's economic life. The approach uses capitalization to convert the anticipated income stream into an estimate of present value.
OVR Market Override 95% of the Market Estimate rounded to the nearest $100.
OVR MRA Override 95% of the MRA Estimate rounded to the nearest $100.
OVR Partial Completion Permit was not completed prior to January 1st of the current appraisal year. Value is based on that partial completion.
OVR Pending BOTA Appeal Property has an active Board of Tax Appeals (BOTA) appeal outstanding from prior year(s) and value is still reflective of current market conditions and did not warrant a change.
OVR Previous Year Hearing Value If the appraised value for the prior year was due to a final determination made pursuant to the valuation appeals process.
OVR Sales Estimate Value chosen was taken from the Commercial Sales Benchmark and used to calculate a sales estimate of value.
