Need an explanation on what a PID fee is and if it should be included on the Special Assesments field on page 1, Thanks for any help
 
My question is What is a PID?
I did a search and came up with a bunch of definitions. Pick one.

My guess would be that it's some sort of improvement district (though I can't cypher what the "P" represents). Improvement districts are often single purpose entities that bring some infrastructure to an area (sewer is a good example, but it could be anything - water, floodway improvements, whatever). Any fee associated with an improvement district would - IMO - be shown as a special assessment.
 
KJR008,

Read the following post:http://appraisersforum.com/showthread.php?t=182292

They have been popping up in my markets over the last few years. I've done some fairly extensive research on them and each one has variations. See if there is any way you can get the PID contract which the buyer signed when they purchased the house. I would send, or post, the response I included within a recent report but as mentioned, the variations between them are such that it may not even be relevant to your situation.

To answer your question, they are a special assessment. In my case, there was no way to reasonably determine the total amount of the assessment however it was possible to determine it for the current year. In my opinion, they are nothing more than a creative way of taxing without calling it a tax.

PM me or look me up on the ASC website and give me a call and I'd be happy to go over it with you if you need more info.

"P" stands for "Planned".
 
Is it some type of a community enhancement fee? Some of the masterplanned communities here in Orange County (Ladera Ranch and the Talega area in San Clemente) have 1/4% fees due (based on sales price) when a property sells.

Also, some builders (I believe Lennar and possibly Hovnanian) have a type of residual fee due on resales of homes that they built.

I think what you are describing is different than a PID.
