The property has been inspected and appraised for purposes of determining my opinion of the “as is” "Market Value" as of the date of inspection, August 16, 2017. This appraisal has been prepared in compliance with the 2016/2017 Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and in compliance with the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA). This appraisal report is being prepared in conjunction with the Gramm-Leach Bliley Privacy Act. This Act became effective July 1, 2001. Property Identification (not to be utilized on legal documents): 55.01 acres located in the SW ¼ Section 26, Township 92 North, Range 40 West of the 5th P.M., Cherokee County, Iowa. Please see aerial map following this transmittal letter for delineation of property borders. The property is further identified as assessor parcel ID #’s: • 0726376001 • 0726328006 • 0726355026 The subject property comprises 55.01 acres, more or less. After an investigation of the available information pertinent to the value of the subject property, my opinion of the “as is” “Market Value” as of the date of inspection, August 16, 2017 is: $233,800 or $4,250 per acre (Two Hundred Thirty-three Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars) This valuation is NOT a guarantee of the “sales price”. The valuation developed herein is “Market Values” as defined within this report. The “real estate/business” market is NOT a 10 “perfect” market. The actual sales price for the subject property may be higher or lower than the reported valuation. The property interest being appraised is “fee simple” interest. The value is considered to be in “as is” condition. In addition, the value is considered to be in “as clean” condition. The valuation does not take into account any environmental hazards or potential cleanup costs from these. Clean up costs must be deducted from the “as clean” valuation in order to determine current valuation on this property, if applicable. No warranties or assumptions concerning any mechanical condition of the property are provided herein. Your attention is invited to the data and discussion contained within this report from which, in part, this conclusion was derived. Thank you for the opportunity to prepare this appraisal for you.
