Economic obsolescence (incurable) | Caused by factors outside the subject property & is not curable. ex: proximity to a polluting plant |
Effective age | The apparent age of the building based on observed condition rather than chronological age. |
Functional obsolescence curable | Physical or design features that are no longer considered desirable by property buyers but can be replaced or redesigned at low cost. ex: changing fixtures |
Functional obsolescence incurable | Undesirable physical or design features that can't be remedied easily are considered functionally obsolete. ex: home w/ 5 bedrooms & 1 bath |
gross rent multiplier (GRM) | a figure used as a multiplier of the gross monthly income of a property to produce an estimate of the property's value |

Replacement cost | The construction cost, at current prices and using modern materials & methodology, of a property that is not necessarily an exact duplicate but serves the same purpose or function as the original property. |
Reproduction cost | The dollar amount required to construct an exact duplicate of the subject building at current prices. This is mostly used when appraising historical homes. |
Sales comparison approach | AKA the market data approach. When an estimate of value is obtained by comparing the subject property with recently sold comparable properties. |
Square foot method | Cost per square foot of a recently built comparable structure multiplied by the number of square feet in the subject property. |
Straight Line Depreciation | When the cost of an asset is depreciated evenly over its useful life. |
Substitution | An appraisal principle that states that the maximum value of a property tends to be set by the cost of purchasing an equally desirable and valuable substitute property, assuming that no costly delay is encountered in making the substitution. |
