DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE

The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:

  1. buyer and seller are typically motivated;
  2. both parties are well informed or well advised, with each acting in what he considers his own best interest;
  3. a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
  4. payment is made in terms of cash in local currency or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
  5. the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.

CERTIFICATION AND STATEMENT OF LIMITING CONDITIONS

CONTINGENT AND LIMITING CONDITIONS: The certification that appears in the appraisal report is subject to the following conditions:

  1. Because market conditions, including economic, social and political factors change rapidly and, on occasion, without warning, the market value estimate expressed as of the date of this appraisal cannot be relied upon as of any other date except with further advice from the appraiser confirmed in writing.
  2. No responsibility is assumed for matters of a legal nature that affect either the property being appraised or the title to it. It has been assumed that the title is good and marketable and, therefore, no opinion is rendered about the title. The subject property must comply with government regulations, including zoning, building code and health regulations and, if it does not comply, its noncompliance may affect market value. To be certain of compliance, further investigation may be necessary. The property is appraised on the basis of its being under responsible ownership.
  3. No survey of the property has been made. Any sketch in the appraisal report shows approximate dimensions and is included only to assist the reader of the report in visualizing the property.
  4. This report is completed on the basis that testimony or appearance in court is not required as a result of this appraisal unless specific arrangements to do so have been made beforehand. Such arrangements will include, but not necessarily be limited to, adequate time to review the appraisal report and data related thereto and the provision of appropriate compensation.
  5. Unless otherwise stated in the appraisal report, there are no known unapparent or hidden conditions of the property (including but not limited to its soils, physical structure, mechanical and other operating system, its foundation, etc.) or adverse environmental conditions (on it or a neighbouring property, including the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) that would make the property more or less valuable. It has been assumed that there are no such conditions unless they were observed at the time of inspection or became apparent during the normal research involved in completing the appraisal. The attached report should not be construed as an environmental audit or a detailed property condition report, as such reporting is beyond the scope of this report and/or the qualifications of the appraiser. Responsibility is not accepted for any such unapparent or hidden conditions that do exist, or for any research, testing or engineering that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist.
  6. Information, estimates, and opinions that have been expressed in the appraisal report are obtained from sources considered to be reliable and they are believed to be true and correct. No responsibility is assumed for the accuracy of such items that were furnished by other parties.
  7. The opinions of value and other conclusions contained herein assume satisfactory completion of any work remaining to be completed in a good and workmanlike manner. Further inspection may be required to confirm completion of such work.
  8. The contents of this report are considered confidential and will not be disclosed by the author to any party except when properly entered into evidence of a duly qualified judicial or quasi-judicial body
  9. Written consent from the author must be obtained before all (or any part of) the content of the appraisal report can be used for any purposes by anyone except: the client specified in the report and, where the client is the mortgagee, its insurer and the borrower, if he/she paid the appraisal fee. The author's written consent and approval must also be obtained before the appraisal (or any part of it) can be conveyed by anyone to any other parties, including mortgagees other than the client and the public through prospectus, offering memo, advertising, public relations, news, sales or other media.

APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION

The Appraiser certifies and agrees that:

  1. The subject market area has been researched and as applicable recent sales of properties have been selected that are the most similar and proximate to the subject property for consideration in sales comparison analysis and a dollar adjustment has been made where appropriate to reflect the market reaction to those items of significant variation. If a significant item in a comparable property is superior to, or more favourable than, the subject property, a negative adjustment is made to reduce the adjusted sales price of the comparable property and, if a significant item in a comparable property is inferior to, or less favourable than the subject property, a positive adjustment is made to increase the adjusted sales price of the comparable.
  2. All factors known to the appraiser (and to the extent that the data permits) that have an impact on value have been taken into consideration to the extent felt necessary in rendering a considered opinion of value. No significant information has been knowingly withheld from the appraisal report and it is believed to the best of our knowledge, that all statements and information in the appraisal report are true and correct.
  3. Only our personal, unbiased, and professional analysis, opinions, and conclusions are stated in the appraisal report. Included on this form are all contingent and limiting conditions affecting the analysis, opinions, and conclusions, whether they were imposed by the terms of the assignment or by the appraiser.
  4. We have no past, present or prospective interest in the property that is the subject of this report and I have no present or prospective personal interest in the property or bias with respect to the parties involved.
  5. The opinion of value stated within this report does not result from a requirement to report a predetermined value or direction in value that favors the cause of the client or any related party, the attainment of a specific result, or the occurrence of a subsequent event in order to receive the compensation and/or employment for performing the appraisal. The reported value is not based on a requested minimum valuation, a specific valuation, or the need to approve a specific mortgage loan.
  6. The appraisal has been performed in conformity with the Standards of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors with the exception of the departure provision of those Standards, which does not apply. It is acknowledged that an estimate of a reasonable time for exposure in the open market is a condition in the definition of market value and the estimate developed is consistent with the marketing time noted in the appropriate section of this report unless otherwise stated in the section.
  7. The interior and exterior of the subject property were personally inspected on the date shown in the attached report. It is hereby certified that any apparent or known adverse conditions have been noted herein, in the subject improvements, on the subject site, or on any site, within the immediate vicinity of the subject property which were apparent as of the date of inspection and that adjustments have been made for these adverse conditions in the analysis of the property value to the extent that market evidence was available to support them.
  8. All conclusions and opinions about the real estate were personally prepared as same are set forth in the appraisal report. If there was reliance on significant professional assistance from any individual or individuals in the performance of the appraisal or the preparation of the appraisal report, such individual(s) have been named herein including the disclosure of specific tasks performed by them. No authorization has been given to anyone to make a change to any item in the report; therefore, if an unauthorized change is made to the appraisal report, no responsibility for such change is assumed.
