Parking lot = $4.25/SF of parking lot
Soft costs =7%

Hard costs for the building, in whole dollars
Hard costs for the office build-out, in whole dollars
Hard costs for the parking lot, in whole dollars
Total hard costs, in whole dollars
Soft costs, in whole dollars
Entrepreneurial incentive, in whole dollars

Question 2:
Complete a sales comparison approach using the following information and data:
In your adjustment grid on the following page, round all adjustments to the nearest whole percentage (e.g., round 10.15% to 10%)
Include a + or to indicate the direction of each adjustment.
Make the market conditions adjustment first and independent of all other adjustments.
At the end, add together the location/physical adjustments because they are cumulative (dont forget to consider the direction of adjustments).
Not all items will require adjustment.
Remember, comparables are adjusted to the subject, so a superior characteristic would be adjusted downward, and an inferior characteristic would be adjusted upward.
Subject property: 312,000 SF warehouse
Sales A-D are all warehouses.
Market conditions adjustment
Market conditions adjustments are applied before all the other adjustments, after which you should calculate a semi-adjusted $/SF before proceeding with the location/physical adjustments.
From the beginning of Q12021 until the end of Q22023, market conditions improved 4% per quarter on a straight-line basis (NOT compounding) due to demand for warehouse space for e-commerce. From the end of Q22023 until the present (beginning of Q42024), market conditions have declined 3% per quarter on a straight-line basis (NOT compounding) due to oversupply.
All sales must be adjusted to reflect market conditions as of the beginning of Q42024.
Make all adjustments from the beginning of the quarter when the comparable sold to the beginning of Q42024.
Location adjustment
Whitestown is considered to be 10% superior to Indianapolis.
Greenwood is considered to be 15% inferior to Whitestown.
Plainfield is considered to be 10% inferior to Whitestown
Size adjustment
Buildings in this market require a 1.50% adjustment per 5,000 SF of difference (you can adjust for smaller and larger/partial differences). Smaller buildings are considered superior, and larger buildings are considered inferior.
Age/condition adjustment
An adjustment for age is 2.00% per year of effective age difference. Older buildings are considered inferior, and newer buildings are considered superior.
Remember the market conditions adjustment is performed prior to location/physical adjustments. Location/physical adjustments are added up and can net each other out.
Last, present the indicated values for the subject, based on each comparables adjusted $/SF and the subject building size, in whole dollars, rounded to the nearest $10,000.
