- 117 - Respondent's appraisals of the 39 units in Miami and 40-unit complex in San Antonio, which were performed 11 to 13 years after EA83-XII and EA84-III acquired the properties, reflect the wholesale value of multiple properties purchased in bulk sales from the same builder.

Respondent's brief states as follows: because each of the [single family] properties was purchased by Epic in purchases involving multiple houses from the same builder, a discount in the amount of the rental deficit contribution of approximately 20% to the retail value is appropriate to arrive at the wholesale value of each property. * * * The above statement echoes the opinion of respondent's appraisers, Messrs. Dalton and Ramos, who valued the Reflections condominium complex that was purchased by EA 84-III. In a memorandum that accompanied their appraisal, Messrs. Dalton and Ramos describe the difference between the wholesale and retail values of the properties as the amount of the rental deficit contribution. The memorandum states as follows:Page: Previous 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 Next
