The Missoula County Property Info System has the total final land value/2003 full reappraisal value of $62,416.00.  The sellers are asking much more than that - $90K.  What would a realistic and fair price be?</description><language>en-us</language><item><title>Answer by Steve Palmer</title><link>http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Missoula_MT-637030/</link><guid>http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Missoula_MT-637030/</guid><description>Property values in the Missoula area have increased dramatically since 2003 (single family homes have increased by over 30%, bare land by even more)&#13;
&#13;
2008 bare land Stats: The median sold price for .....&#13;
&#13;
...less than 1 acre in the Missoula area was $79,900&#13;
&#13;
...1-5 acres in the Missoula area was $145,803&#13;
&#13;
The fact is that you can't use values from 2003 to determine current market value - The only way to determine a "realistic and fair price" is to analyze comparable bare land sold within the past 3-6 months</description><pubDate>Sun, 25 Jan 2009 03:21:38 -0800</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
