6. Estimating Just
Compensation
(Partial Takings Cases)
Federal Rule
State Rule (Basic)
Value of the Property Before the Taking
- Value of the Property After the Taking
= Just Compensation
Value of the Property Before the Taking
- Value of the Part Taken
= Remainder Value Before the Taking
- Remainder Value After the Taking
= Damages (Net of Benefits) to Remainder
+ Value of the Part Taken
= Just Compensation
7. Some Important Concepts
Partial Acquisitions/Whole
Acquisitions
The Larger Parcel
Scope of the Project Rule
Front Land-Rear Land Concept
Property Rights Acquired
8. Condemnation Observations
Most cases governed by State law -- every State is different
Statutes
Case Law
Procedures
What is compensable
Vast and complex body of knowledge required to navigate
Condemnation is an adversarial process -- Nobody likes it
Goal should be fairness to property owner and fairness to
taxpayers
Today’s Discussion: Mostly landowner’s perspective -- How
can a CCIM best assist a property owner/asset manager?
10. Don’t try to negotiate a
complex taking case
without legal
representation and
valuation expertise.
11. Don’t play “keep away”
with data.
(Like rent rolls, income, expenses,
vacancy)
12. Don’t be greedy.
A takings case is not a profit making
opportunity.
Even if you win, you probably lose.
Jurors and commissioners may be suspicious
of your claims anyway.
