In reply to Dave. I prefer appraisal 101 and you are deflecting. You have made a significant point about differentiating primary and secondary data. I think it is important for those reading your comments to have a clear understanding/definition of what primary and secondary are so as to have the proper context of your comments. I don’t think it is an unreasonable, or particularly difficult request.

Oh Howard, so much time in what NOT to do, but little or no discussion as to your USPAP compliant statistical correlation analysis appropriate to substantiate adjustments made by YOU! I always make that adjustment LAST to see if it is indeed helpful in narrowing the adjusted range. You are correct most boilerplate does include an arbitrary /sf adjustment which often drives the bracket apart instead of narrowing it.

Dave, I really don’t want to get argumentative. SQUARE FOOT analysis DOES help an appraiser to reach a value opinion. You should know that unless you don’t make sf adjustments.
