Summary

Paul and Silvana Masucci, via appraiser Scott Beecher, asked that their property's grade be reduced and that an accessory apartment over the garage be excluded from gross living area under Fannie Mae rules, which could lower the assessment.

Paul and Silvana Masucci presented an appraisal and supporting graphs arguing several technical adjustments: (1) reduce the property grade from A+ to B+, (2) change condition from good to average, and (3) exclude a guest apartment over the garage from gross living area because it is not accessed from the primary living area. Appraiser Scott Beecher said he used cost, sales comparison and trend approaches to conclude a market value near $1,066,000 versus the assessor’s $1,142,900.
