Health or safety concern

Neither. I might consider it an eyesore.

Agree. It does not rise to the level of health or safety issue. If so, 90% of rural properties would be in trouble.
 
Imo, no. But include the photo and comment on it and that you could not see underneath, and removal is recommended.

Why? If you believe it's not a health and safety issue, why recommend removal?

"Recommending" is a wishy-washy way of addressing it. If you think its a H+S issue, make it subject to removal. Otherwise, stay in your lane.
 
Now in Memphis and several other jurisdictions in Shelby County, they will visit the property and put a notice on the door and give a time frame. Then, things will get worse pretty quick sometimes. Like they might change the locks and put a new notice on the door with contact information. Germantown, Bartlett, Collierville Lakeland, Arlington are bad too. If they tell you to move it, you better move it. You will have to see a judge.

It will be cheaper to keep her if you move it.
 
The back of that rural yard is weeds & woods, concerned about the kids safety playing football out there. I got stuff in my small urban concrete jungle back yard. Geez, now it's a safety issue. Just flame it up on a cold winter night, oh wait. All that dried brush and trees will catch on fire, and there goes the neighborhood. Never mind.
 
The more I study it, if your client is a lender loaning money on the subject, I would just estimate a cost to remove it and put it in condition adjustment. Go high and say $2K to $3k?

I don't know how far the nearest dump is or salvage yard that will take it.

This is the way I look at it. Your client could very possibly have to pay to remove it one way or another. You represent your client's interest in the subject.

I'll go deeper. When you study MV definition, who is going to want it there? I assume your definition of value is MV.

Did you also tell them to shampoo the rugs, and not be so messy in the house, grandma. They probable have a pickup truck. Now they will go dump it somewhere into the vacant rural woods. That's my bad urban ghetto attitude speaking to you son.

Read the definition Sir:

Definition of Market Value​

Market value is the most probable price that a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale with, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:

  • buyer and seller are typically motivated;
  • both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what they consider to be in their own best interest;
  • a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
  • payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
  • the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.
You might want to lay off that pipe Sir Tom....................

MV also requires H&B use analysis. It is not if and or but............MV definition requires H&B use analysis.
