Consultants Ltd., of Whitestone, New York and chapter vice president of the Appraisal Institute, said: "We must look at the value of property realistically.

Unit owners have undivided ownership interest in the land and those portions of the building shared in common. in the face of future uncertainty. Wood advised that investors carefully analyze real estate returns compared with other alternative investments. "They go through a reality test," he said. "They have two fundamental questions, 'Should I sell or should I buy.' "Sometimes they decide it is better to sell even at today's depressed values and put the money in bonds," said Wood. "Investors may form the opinion that the income security of bonds is more attractive than that offered by say, a fully leased office building with three or five year leases in this market. "Believe it or not there are buyers out there." Wood told the New York appraisal group. His clients sold a suburban office building and a research and development property within the last two months.

"There are sellers who must sell. There is capital coming to the market. You have to take advantage of the opportunities. "The best thing that can happen to real estate is that the industry value property at the price it knows it can sell it for in the market today," he said at the Metropolitan New York Chapter of the Appraisal Institute meeting. "Then and only then will it be possible to answer the 'Why not sell?' question. And for buyers, who have a different perception of the market than sellers, help them make the decision whether to buy. "This variance of opinion, between the seller's and buyer's perceptions, makes an open market. The price they pay is the Fair Market Value. |
