  1. Estimating Realistic Marketing Prices Put properties into the context of current markets

  2. Objectives • Read and construct credible analyses of market transactions to justify price • Know how to adjust sales to a subject • Describe major agricultural activities • Understand estimating value by replacement cost • Examine results of different estimates to derive a value RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  3. Analysis of Comparables • Continuous information collection • Information clarifies possibilities • Property variation limits use of raw sales information • Rigorous analysis yields real knowledge RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  4. Systematic Sales Analysis • Identify value determining features • Specify measurable units for comparison • per acre • per animal unit • per farm • per ranch RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  5. Example • High percentage of Class I soils • Versus mostly Class III soils • Class I increases price per acre RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  6. Adjustment Process • Simulates market of identical properties just like the subject RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  7. Animal Unit (AU) • Production versus space • Focus on forage production • Composition varies greatly with geographic variations • Technology varies greatly as well RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  8. Animal Unit Month (AUM) • Soil surveys often provide estimates • AUM is 1/12th of AU • Six AUMs is 1/2 of AU • Acres per AU = 12 / AUM per acre • Six AUMs per acre = 2 acres per AU RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  9. Comparable Sales • Ideal — Array of recent sales that are identical to the subject • Reality — Substantial variation, often older sales • Correct for differences (adjust) RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  10. REMEMBER • Always adjust the comparables to the subject! RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  11. Direction of Adjustment • Subject is superior — adjustment is added • Subject is inferior — adjustment is subtracted RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  12. Information Gathered • Property rights conveyed • Financing terms • Date of Sale • Location • Legal description • Sale price RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  13. Information Gathered • Volume/page • Grantor • Grantee • Acreage • Selling agent RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  14. Information Gathered • Productivity information • Descriptions of improvements • Assessment information • All special conditions • Confirmations of buyer and seller RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  15. Sources of Sales • Mandatory disclosure • information must be analyzed • confirmation still required • No disclosure • real estate agents • bankers • lawyers • etc. RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  21. Adjustments • Location • Physical • size • soils • topography • etc. RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  22. Remaining Adjustments • Economic • crop base • lease provisions • etc. RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  23. Remaining Adjustments • Non-real estate items • equipment included • growing crop • etc. RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  24. Example Adjustment RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  25. Example • Half of minerals reserved • Favorable financial terms • Market upward trend • Inferior location • Large property • Inferior lease • Crop included RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  26. Adjustments • Percentage • Dollar • Quality-based • Objective criteria RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing

  27. Adjustments • Quality-based • experience • rules of thumb • Objective criteria • statistical analysis • cost • income capitalization RLI - AgriLand Brokerage and Marketing
