AB64-SA1,7,75 70.32 (1b) (a) To determine the value of property using generally accepted

7the property being assessed:
AB64-SA1,7,98 1. Sales or rentals of properties exhibiting the same or a similar highest and
9best use with placement in the same real estate market segment.
AB64-SA1,7,1410 2. Sales or rentals of properties that are similar to the property being assessed
11with regard to age, condition, use, type of construction, location, design, physical
12features, and economic characteristics, including similarities in occupancy and the
13the potential to generate rental income. For purposes of this subdivision, such
14properties may be found locally, regionally, or nationally.

6permissible, physically possible, not speculative, and financially feasible and
7provides the highest net return. When the current use of a property is the highest
8and best use of that property, value in the current use equals full market value. In
9this paragraph, “legally permissible” does not include a conditional use that has not
10been granted as of the assessment date.
AB64-SA1,8,1611 (d) For purposes of par. (a), “real estate market segment” means a pool of
12potential buyers and sellers that typically buy or sell properties similar to the
13property being assessed, including potential buyers who are investors or
14owner-occupants. For purposes of this paragraph, and depending on the type of

16regionally, nationally, or internationally.”.
