The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract. The Appraiser/ Contractor must possess a General State Certification in New Mexico or must obtain a temporary practice permit. 1.2 Background: The Glorieta Adventure Camp property is under review for lease and/or acquisition by the Government.

The property under this same number is segmented in the local tax database as follows: http://assessor.santafecountynm.gov/map_retired.php?searchType=ParcelNumber&searchValue=99306046 These parcels are under common ownership and shall be appraised as a single property. 1.3 Objectives: The Contractor shall appraise the Glorieta Adventure Camp property, and shall prepare, furnish, and deliver to the Government an appraisal report in electronic (.pdf) format upon completion of the supporting inspections, investigations, research, and studies. Property rights to be appraised are: Fee simple ownership, subject to all easements, encumbrances, and restrictions of record. Rental rate for the property, including the existing buildings on the approx. 100 acres. The objective of the appraisal is to estimate the market value of the fee simple estate of the subject property, and to estimate the rental rate as of the publication date of the property appraisal. The appraisal will be used in support of negotiations for a federal acquisition/rental of the property. 1.4 Scope: The Contractor shall compile and publish the appraisal report in support of its intended use, the needs of the user, and the complexity of the property. The Contractor shall make a detailed field inspection and identification of the property. The Contractor shall make such investigations, research, and studies as are appropriate and necessary to enable the Contractor to derive sound conclusions and to prepare the appraisal report to be furnished under this contract per the established industry standards detailed in this Statement of Work. The appraisal report shall, in form and substance, conform to the requirements for appraisal reports as set forth by the current version of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) in effect upon the date of the report; shall present adequate factual data to support each rate, percentage, or amount used in sufficient detail to permit an intelligent review of the appraisal report; shall relate conclusions to those facts; and shall, among other things, include the items set forth herein. The appraisal is required to be compliant with the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (UASFLA or “Yellow Book”). The appraisal report shall at minimum meet the following requirements and conditions: The appraisal shall comply with the USPAP and the UASFLA. In the event of contradiction between these standards, the UASFLA shall rule and a Jurisdictional Exception shall be cited as the authority. The appraiser is responsible for determination of the applicable and necessary approaches. If the appraiser determines that any of the three conventional approaches are not necessary, they should contact the Contracting Officer Representative (COR). The appraiser should review the discussion of the approaches in the UASFLA before making their determination. The appraiser shall include an estimate of the market value of the land as though vacant, unimproved, and available for development to its highest and best use. Due to the conditions described in Item 1.4(f) below, Extraordinary Assumption (EA) or Hypothetical Condition (HC) may be used as a basis for the appraisal. The effective date of value should be the date of the inspection. No boundary survey, environmental site assessment or title report is currently available, and may not be available before the assignment is due. As a part of this assignment, the appraiser agrees to try to obtain these documents and to review them if and when they are available. If they have no material effect on the appraised value the appraiser will provide a revised report with the EAs and HCs removed at no additional cost to the government. If the appraiser determines that the documentation provided will have a material effect on the value, and if the Contracting Officer concurs, the appraiser will provide a fee and timeframe for revising their appraisal. In accordance with the Yellow Book, a larger parcel analysis is required and if it is determined that the subject property as described herein is NOT the larger parcel, “Before and After” methodology should be utilized. The appraisal report shall, in form and substance, conform to the requirements for an appraisal report as set forth by the USPAP and should adhere as closely as practical to the report format in Section 2 of the Yellow Book; it shall present adequate factual data to support each rate, percentage, or amount used in sufficient detail to permit an intelligent review of the appraisal report. 2.
