The SCA Component Model is similar to the cost approach where the model values each land type.


Example:

Cropland 1

Cropland 2

Hay/Meadow

Pasture A

Pasture B


Model Valuation Example                 Acres                $/Acre         Contribution

Cropland 1                           200                $5,000               1,000,000

Cropland 2                             50                $4,000                  200,000

Hay/Meadow                             60                $3,000                  180,000

Pasture A                                   100                $2,500                  250,000

Pasture B                                     75                $2,000                  150,000

                                          485                             Total   $1,780,000



DETAIL TAB



NOTE:  if using prior template that user would like to duplicate with a different name, HIT upper green arrow "Clone" and rename the clone to your desired model name


          1. Model Name (enter manually to user's choice)
          2. Description (enter manually to user's choice)
          3. Component Model "effective" begin date
          4. Component Model "expiration" date
          5. Final Value Rounding (enter manuallyO
          6. Appraiser Template (select from options manually entered)
          7. Evaluator Template (select from options manually entered)
          8. Appraisal Field Set (select from options manually entered)
          9. Custom Field Set (select from options manually entered)


NOTE:  Once "Details" completed, HIT "Evaluate" (yellow button at green dashed arrow in lower right corner)



CONFIGURATION TAB     (Entries below are set as defaults to enable the users to start.  All fields can be changed, however, the MODEL should run with the default settings.



          1. Minimum Rating:  The minimum sale rating computed from model settings (age, distance, etc.).  The default starts at 0.100 with the max possible setting of 1.000
          2. Minimum Sale Count:  default at 3; however 1 to 3 would be most common
          3. Maximum Sale Count:  default at 5; however. 3 to 8 considered most common
          4. Max Price Spread (%):  default at 300%; however, 200% to 400% most common
          5. Valuation Method:  default is "Average" where the sale values for Type 1 land would be averaged
          6. Auto-Select Sales:  normally this box or option is checked to enable the Model to select the highest ranked sales for the answer
          7. Use Ratio Values:  default is check to enable the Model to impute the "ghost" or missing values within the sales which keep from eliminating sales that have a slightly different land-mix
          8. Time Adjustment Set:  default is "none" or blank; most market that are moving should be measured from pairings, quantified, and entered.
          9. Age Cushion (Days):  default is 180 days.  If the sale is more than 180 old, it is NOT discarded, i.e., the time of 181 to 360 day is just computed at a lower rate to score that sale for "age" only.  Those within 180 days score 1, or 100% for age; but if its 185 days its on the second tier and may contribute 80% for age.  If it was 400 days, it would be in the third tier and score something like 60% for age.
          10. Distance Cushion (Miles):  The distance factor works the same as the "age" cushion above.  The default is 10 miles and any sale with that distance score 1, or 100% for distance.  If the sale were 35 miles away, it would be within the third tier (35 miles/10 miles = 3.5 tier.  If the tiers were 100% for the first step, ~80% for the second, and ~60% for the third, this sale would not be excluded, but the impact would ~60% in the "sale scoring" for distance.
          11. Maximum Sale Age (Months):  The default is 36 months; thus, all sales within the first 36 months would score 1, or 100% for age.  If the sale were 40 months old, it would be in the second tier (40 months/36 months = 1.1), or rated at ~80% for the scoring with regard to age.
          12. Per-Acre Minimum:  sets the lower threshold of value for the model
          13. Per-Acre Maximum:  sets the upper threshold of value for the model
          14. Total Value Minimum:  sets the lower threshold of TOTAL value for the modeled area
          15. Total Value Maximum:  sets the upper threshold of TOTAL value for the modeled area
          16. Calculate Exposure Time:  A USPAP requirement and does the user want the model to compute Exposure Time, or do it manually? (next line)
          17. Manually setting the Exposure TIme from "x" to "y"
          18. See #17 above
          19. Hit the "Evaluate" button to see if the Model functions with your settings



IMPROVEMENT TAB




          1. Value Improvements:  check-box to activate
          2. Adjustment Improvements:  check-box to activate
          3. Minimum Rating (0-1):  Default set at 0.100, but user can set at any level (NOTE:  the higher the setting, the more sales are eliminated from the valuation pool)
          4. Min Comparisons:  Default set at 1, but 1-3 common
          5. Max Comparisons:  Default set at 5, but 5-8 common
          6. Evaluate Button:  Run or Evaluate to see that Model settings produces a report



COMPARISON VALUES TAB


          1. Entering additional "Comparison Value Names", HIT the "+" button and another row will be added
          2. Add the County
          3. "Minimum Required" and 
          4. Add the "Weight" Add the "Rating Matrix" to enable numeric adjustments for factors if the user desires
          5. #5 Distance,
          6. #6 Minimum Required, and 
          7. #7 is a Repeat of the "County" comparison values
          8. Hit the Evaluate Bottom to test the model for settings added from this page



BOUNDARY LINES not added for this example.  See "Setting up an SCA Model" (previous section) to see the boundary line procedure.
