I said, (please see my posts) busy roads can be an adverse marketability factor and value factor . (here as well if often is and then it affects house and site together, )
The site section on page one however is not addressing obs from perspective of buyers/value loss, it is asking about physicality, of site conditions or legal uses or or external factors such as environmental hazards due to close proximity to the site.
Site Comments section:
external factors such as environmental hazards,
ETC. due to close proximity to the site.
"B4-1.4-08, Appraisal Report Review: Off-Site
Improvements (04/01/2009)
Introduction
This topic contains information on off-site improvements, including:
• Off-Site Improvements
• Evaluating Off-Site Improvements
• Community-Owned or Privately Maintained Streets
Off-Site Improvements
Off-site improvements include streets, alleys, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, street lights, etc. The subject property should front on a publicly dedicated and maintained street that meets community standards and is generally accepted by area residents.
Evaluating Off-Site Improvements
If a property fronts on a street that is not typical of those found in the community, the appraiser must address the effect of that location on the marketability and value of the subject property.
The presence of sidewalks, curbs and gutters, street lights, and alleys depends on local custom—if they are typical in the community, they should be present on the subject site."
Community-Owned or Privately Maintained Streets
If the property is located on a community-owned or privately-owned and maintained street, an adequate, legally enforceable agreement or covenant for maintenance of the street is required.
