An appraiser must properly identify the problem to be solved in order to determine the
appropriate scope of work. The appraiser must be prepared to demonstrate that the scope of
work is sufficient to produce credible assignment results.1
Problem Identification
To determine the As Is market value (as of the date of our most recent inspection), for the
clients intended internal use.
Scope of Work
The scope of this appraisal encompasses the research and analysis of data required to prepare a
reliable opinion of market value of the subject property. The procedures used in the appraisal
analysis of the subject property are as follows:
Regional and neighborhood data was gathered from various sources, including public data
sources such as the Pennsylvania State Data Center, CCIM Site to Do Business, and the United
States Bureau of the Census. We analyzed specific neighborhood conditions through a
neighborhood inspection.
We have researched site data listed on the subjects tax assessment record, and the most recently
recorded legal description.
information was obtained from the City of Harrisburg. Flood Zone information was obtained
from FEMA. Current property assessment and millage information was obtained from the
Dauphin County Tax Assessment Office.
Further information gathered was obtained from the Dauphin County Tax Assessment records,
and from in-house appraisal files.
The Highest and Best Use Analysis as though vacant and as improved was determined through
analysis of uses that are legally permitted, physically possible, financially feasible and maximally
productive. The determination of the Highest and Best Use is a compilation of all relevant
market conditions and anticipated yield rates. We have considered and developed a market value
As Is.
In determining the Approaches to Value the appraiser collected data from public records,
interviews with Dauphin County officials, municipal officials, buyers, sellers, residential
builders, real estate brokers/agents, residential property managers, and/or with other
knowledgeable sources.
A final reconciliation of value was determined based on our professional judgment of the
available data. This appraisal is to be used in whole and not in part. No part of this appraisal
shall be used in conjunction with any other appraisal report.
The current (effective date of appraisal) purchasing power of the dollar is the basis for the value
opinion stated within; no extreme fluctuations in economic cycles are anticipated.
The Income Approach was considered and developed for the as is value of the subject
property because the property is an income-producing property.
The Cost Approach was considered and developed for the as is value of the subject property
because the building was constructed in 2009. The Cost Approach is typically used to value new
construction.
The Sales Comparison Approach was considered but not developed for the subject property due
to the lack of comparable sales in the City of Harrisburg.
Ownership: The subject property is owned by Campus Square Partners, LP. The current owner
acquired parcel 06-015-034 from William J. Baker for $425,000 on January 12, 2007 as
referenced in the Dauphin County Recorder of Deeds Office as Document # 2007001884. This
sale was for the land and some improvements on-site.
Intended User
The Intended User of this appraisal report is the client, Andrew Giorgione, Esq. and the S.A.M.
Board of Trustees.
iv)
Based on the information presented in the body of the report, which follows, a reasonable
exposure time for the subject property at the indicated market value is nine to twelve months.
[The reader should note that exposure time is different than marketing time in that exposure time
is always presumed to precede the effective date of an appraisal, whereas marketing time is a
time period immediately subsequent to the date of the appraisal.]
Consultations with area real estate professionals for their opinion indicated a range within a
twelve (12) months period of time in the central Pennsylvania area. It is the appraisers opinion;
the subject property would most likely experience a marketing time of twelve (12) months if
placed on the market for sale. The estimate of marketing time assumes that the property is
exposed in the open market at a reasonable asking price and that there are no distressed factors

affecting its exposure in the market. If the property is listed at a liquidation price, the estimated
marketing period may be less than what the appraisers have forecasted.

Regional Overview
The subject property is located in Derry Township in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. Dauphin
County is bounded by Northumberland County to the north, Cumberland County across the
Susquehanna River to the west, Lancaster County to the south, and Lebanon County to the east.
Dauphin County, together with Cumberland and Perry Counties form the Harrisburg
Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). At the heart of the MSA is the City of Harrisburg, the
Capitol of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which is located 70 miles from Allentown, 80
miles from Baltimore, 90 miles from Philadelphia, 110 miles from Washington D.C. and 200
miles from Pittsburgh. Interstate highway routes 76, 78, 81 and 83 run through the MSA and
provide access to these markets.
Regional Transportation
The major traffic arteries and highway systems that run through the MSA provide important
links to other primary and secondary markets in Pennsylvania and the northeast.
Approximately 25% of the U.S. population lies within a 250-mile radius of the Harrisburg area.
Interstate 76, also known as the Pennsylvania Turnpike, links the area with Pittsburgh to the
west and Philadelphia to the east. Interstate 78 runs from Interstate 81 in Lebanon County,
eastward to Allentown and northern New Jersey.
Baltimore, and Interstate 81 runs north to New York State and Canada, and south to Tennessee.
Other major roads in the area include PA Route 283, which runs from Harrisburg to Lancaster,
U.S. Routes 11 and 15, which run north to New York State and south to Maryland, and PA
Route 581, which runs from Harrisburg westward to the Naval Ships Parts Control Center in
Mechanicsburg.
Both of these roads are four lane limited access highways. A six-mile
extension of Route 581 was completed in 1996, joining the road with Interstate 81.
16
Passenger rail service is provided by Amtrak on ConRail's main line (formerly Penn Central and
Reading Companies). The train/rail terminal is located in downtown Harrisburg at the recently
renovated Harrisburg Transportation Center. Passenger rail service is available to Pittsburgh and
other destinations to the west, and also to Philadelphia along ConRail's northeast corridor.
Freight service throughout the area is provided by ConRail.
Continental Trailways and Greyhound buses run out of a terminal located in the same facility.
Intercity bus service is provided by the Capital Area Transit (CAT); with routes throughout the
East and West Shores of the Harrisburg MSA. The bus system provides important transportation
services for many city residents who work outside of Harrisburg proper.
The area is also served by the Harrisburg International Airport (HIA), which is located 10 miles
south of Harrisburg, along the Susquehanna River.
American Eagle, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines, Northwest Airlines, Air Tran, United
Airlines, and US Airways. The Harrisburg area is well served with its own beltway. The
combination of Route 581, I-83 and I-81 form a circle around the immediate East Shore areas,
Harrisburg City, and near West Shore areas. Larger cities such as Pittsburgh and Philadelphia
do not have a full circle route around the core area. This is a large advantage to assist in the
ease of travel around the city.
The Harrisburg MSA employment base is centered on state and federal government and those
government-servicing industries. Located in the center of the Harrisburg MSA is the
Pennsylvania State Capitol and over a dozen state office buildings. Military installations are also
prominent in the area and include: 1) Mechanicsburg Naval Depot, aka Defense Distribution
East; 2) New Cumberland Army Depot; 3) the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle; and, 4) Fort
Indiantown Gap.
The Harrisburg-Carlisle area's unemployment rate fell to 7.5 percent in August 2012, according
to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry. The area has seen several real estate
construction projects underway in the year 2012.

AREA MAP
The neighborhood analysis provides a bridge between the Regional Analysis and the study of the
subject property. As in the Regional Analysis, the goal of the Neighborhood Analysis is to
determine how the operation of social, economic, governmental and environmental factors
influences the value of real estate.
Location
The subject property is located on the corner of North Third, James and Calder Streets, in the
Midtown district of Harrisburg. The subjects local market area is the fifth and sixth wards of the
City of Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. The area is often referred to as the Midtown
19
market of Harrisburg. The State Capitol building and the Central Business District are adjacent,
to the South and East of the neighborhood.
Neighborhood Boundaries
The neighborhood boundaries are North Second Street to the West; Forster Street to the South;
North Sixth Street to the East; and Verbeke Street to the North.
Overview
The neighborhood is experiencing the urban revitalization that started in the downtown of the
city in 1998. Urban renewal has spread into the mid-town and uptown areas. This is a good sign
for the subject property.
Conclusion
The neighborhood will be a positive factor for the subject property. The subject neighborhood is
a mature, fully developed, area of mixed use known as the Midtown Market District. The Third
Street Corridor is the secondary retail strip often characterized by start-up retail stores. The
Midtown area remains an attractive place for residential living. In conclusion, the neighborhood
and local market area represents a strong location for a school in an area that has experienced
much of the citys revitalization.

28
Implied in this definition is that the determination of highest and best use takes into account the
contribution of a specific use to the community and community development goals, as well as the
benefits of that use to individual property owners.
In appraisal practice, the concept of highest and best use is the basis upon which the value
estimate is based. The market values of land or of an improved property are both estimated
under the assumption that potential purchasers will pay a price that reflects their analyses of the
most profitable use of the land or property as improved. Therefore, the most profitable use
assumption tends to produce the highest offering prices.
The highest and best use analysis requires the application of various categories of use oriented
decisions. To conclude that a given use is the highest and best use of the land as vacant must
meet the following four criteria: 1) legally permissible, 2) physically possible, 3) financially
feasible and 4) most profitable.
Legally Permissible
Uses that are legally permitted at the subject property are largely controlled by the zoning district
in which the property is located. Other factors that may affect the categories of permitted uses
include deed restrictions, easements and encroachments, covenants, etc. As mentioned in the
The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 2nd Edition; American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, 1989.
29
Zoning section of this report, the subject property is located within the Business General (BG)
zoning district, according to the zoning officer of the City of Harrisburg. Permitted uses within
this zoning district include the following: all uses permitted in any Residence Zone; all uses
permitted in a BL zone; sales shops, stores and markets, both wholesale and retail; cigar making
shops; fur and fabric storage buildings; lithography, book binding and printing plants; radio
broadcasting stations and studios; storage or parking garages; express freight offices; recreation
halls, poolrooms, billiard rooms, etc.; filling stations; bar rooms, taverns or restaurants; curtain,
upholstery, rug cleaning or garment cleaning, when adequately housed to prevent nuisance; clubs
or fraternal homes; home beverage and beer distributors; laundromats or dry cleaning pick-up
and delivery; and office buildings. The subject property is a permitted use in this zoning district.
Physically Possible
The subject site consists of 0.41 acres of land on the corner of North Third and Reily Streets in
the City of Harrisburg, Dauphin County. Access and visibility of this site is considered excellent.
Public utilities are available to the site and the topography is level at street grade. The size of the
subject site limits some uses but most commercial uses in the Business General Zone are
physically possible. The subject site is well-suited for commercial retail use due to the fact that it
is situated on a corner lot. Commercial uses are physically possible at the site.
Financially Feasible
The uses that are both legally permissible and physically possible are the focus of this section of
the analysis. This section eliminates uses that are incapable of supporting development costs
through potential income streams. This analysis is conducted through a study of potential rents
of various property types at the subject site. In general, any of the physically possible and legally
permitted uses which are capable of generating enough income to satisfy operating expenses,
financial obligations and capital amortization are considered financially feasible. Commercial
development with retail/office use is deemed feasible for the property.
30
Maximally Productive
Of the uses that are considered financially feasible at the subject property, the use that generates
the highest rate of return over the longest period of time is considered to be the highest and best
use of the property. Commercial development with retail/office use is viewed as financially
feasible for the subject property. This use would conform well to the neighborhood. As such,
this is the highest and best use of the subject property.
31
In applying the Cost Approach to value, the appraiser attempts to estimate the difference in worth
to a buyer between the property being appraised and a newly constructed building with optimal
utility. The depreciated replacement cost of the improvements is estimated by analyzing three
forms of depreciation; physical deterioration, functional obsolescence and external or economic
obsolescence. This depreciated replacement cost is then added to the market value of the
underlying site, to arrive at a value indication for the subject.
In the Sales Comparison Approach, market value is estimated by comparing the subject to similar
properties which have been sold recently, or to properties which are currently offered for sale.
The analysis of the sales relative to the subject focuses upon differences in legal, locational,
physical and economic characteristics. This approach is applicable to all types of real property
when there is sufficient data in the market.
Real estate which is capable of producing income through rents and leasing is often purchased as
an investment. From the buyer's point of view, the earning power of a property is the most
significant determinant of property value. The buyer is essentially trading present dollars for the
right to receive future income. Development of the Income Capitalization Approach involves
estimating net operating income by analyzing encumbering leases, market rents, market
occupancy levels and absorption rates, and expenses.
capitalized at an appropriate rate, which is also determined by the market, to arrive at a single
value estimate.
32
After developing each of the approaches to value, the three value estimates are normally
reconciled into a single estimate of value for the subject property. Since the approaches involve
different techniques, and the reliability of data involved in each technique may vary, the market
value is usually based upon the approach which utilized the strongest market evidence.
33
LAND VALUATION
Land Value
The value of the land is determined by its potential highest and best use as if it were vacant and
available for development. There are several methods of estimating land value including:
Sales Comparison
Allocation
Land Residual
Extraction
Subdivision Development
Of these approaches, the Sales Comparison Approach is the most prevalent, due primarily to the
quantity and quality of available market data. In this analysis, sales of similar sites are
researched, analyzed, compared and adjusted to arrive at an indicated value. Adjustments are
made for differences in the sales that reflect market reaction. In the valuation of the subject
property, the Sales Comparison Approach was used for land valuation.
Units of Comparison
Vacant commercial land is typically valued on a price per acre or price per square foot basis,
depending on the size of the property while residential land is typically valued on a price per acre
or price per lot or dwelling unit basis. In the analysis of the subject site, the price per square
foot of land was chosen as the appropriate unit of comparison because it indicated a tighter range
than the price per acre.

This adjustment renders the sale price to cash equivalent terms. Where favorable, below market
rate, financing terms are made available by the seller; the difference between the favorable terms
and the market rate terms is estimated. The present value of this difference represents an
advantage to the comparable sale and warrants a negative adjustment. While this calculated
amount is not always the market's reaction to favorable financing, it serves the appraiser well as a
guide in the absence of market data. All transfers were reported to be cash sales and no
adjustments are required for financing.
40
Conditions of Sale
This adjustment is applied if there are any unusual circumstances surrounding the transaction,
such as foreclosures, bulk sales, related parties, and assemblages. No adjustments were warranted
for conditions of sale. All the properties were listed for sale and exposed to the real estate
market for a reasonable amount of time. All sales are considered arms length transactions.
Location Adjustments
Adjustments are necessary for location when a property is in a location that is more or less
favorable than the subject.
Comparable sale one was adjusted downwards for superior location on North Front Street. It
was adjusted upwards for its inferior access and visibility (North Front Street is a one-way
street). It was also adjusted upwards for site characteristics (L shaped). Finally, this sale was
adjusted for its inferior zoning and size.
Comparable sale two was only adjusted upwards for inferior economies of scale. Bigger tracts
of land tend to sell for a lower price per unit.
Comparable sale three was adjusted downwards for its superior location on North Front Street
in Susquehanna Township. It was adjusted upwards for its inferior access and visibility (North
Front Street is a one-way street). This sale was also adjusted upwards for inferior economies of
scale. Bigger tracts of land tend to sell for a lower price per unit.
41
Comparable sale four was adjusted downwards for its superior location in Hampden Township.
This sale was adjusted upwards for inferior economies of scale. Bigger tracts of land tend to sell
for a lower price per unit. This sale was considered similar to the subject property.
42
COST APPROACH
To estimate the replacement cost new of the existing improvements, the Marshall Valuation
Service, a national cost estimating service was consulted, and was correlated with information
concerning other similar properties within the subjects market area. These estimates are based
upon the description of the property contained within this report, which can best be described as
Average Class A Offices (344). The cost data utilized in this evaluation was obtained from the
Marshall Valuation Service and is outlined on the following pages. The base costs contained in
the Marshall Valuation Service include in addition to labor and materials, architectural and
engineering fees, interest and bank charges on building funds during construction, and site
preparation.

These properties reflect a total construction cost of between $137.50 per square foot to $212.00
per square foot. Both of the comparables are new construction. The appraiser expects the
construction cost per square foot to fall within this range.
Conclusion:
The first comparable construction cost was considered most similar to the subject due to its
location, size and quality of construction.
construction cost for the subject at the high end of the range at $175.00. Utilizing a market
derived cost estimate would produce a total construction amount of $12,250,000 ($175.00 x
70,000 SF) for the subject; however, in our analysis, Marshall & Swift Valuation Service was
considered most appropriate.
A separate estimate is required for site improvements. These costs have also been derived from
the Marshall Valuation Service. Site work/improvements at the subject property include asphalt
paving, concrete curbing and sidewalks, landscaping and signage.
The appraiser was provided the actual construction cost of the building by Matt Tunnell, of
GreenWorks Development. The breakdown can be seen below:

Entrepreneurial Incentive
Entrepreneurial incentive is the profit a developer earns through the completion of the
development. The true measure of entrepreneurial incentive is determined by surveying profit
expectations of local market participants. (Note: the site value is excluded from the estimate of
entrepreneurial incentive because it is assumed that the sales prices of the comparable parcels
include an entrepreneurial incentive adjustment to the developer). Entrepreneurial incentive is a
percentage of direct and indirect costs, and ranges from 5% to 25% in the local market. It varies
depending on the location, size, type, complexity of the project, and market forces. For the
subject property, entrepreneurial incentive was estimated at 10%.
Depreciation
From the total replacement cost of the subject improvements, an amount attributed to accrued
depreciation must be subtracted.
physical wear and tear, functional obsolescence, or economic obsolescence. An estimate of 7.3%
depreciation was taken into account due to physical wear and tear. This is based off of a 55-year
life expectancy for an Average Class A Office Buildings according to Marshall & Swift
Valuation Service. Depreciation is calculated by taking the estimated effective age (4 years) and
dividing by the life expectancy (55 years) of the building 7.3% (4 / 55). No depreciation was
taken into account for functional obsolescence. There is limited private parking on-site. Also,
the City of Harrisburg has been going through significant financial woes, and taxes will be
increasing in the near future; therefore, 15% was chosen for external obsolescence. Therefore,
the improvements have an estimated depreciation amount of 22.3% overall.

INCOME APPROACH
As Is
The Income Capitalization Approach is based upon the premise that an investor who purchases
income producing real estate is essentially trading present dollars for the right to receive future
income. This is the Principle of Anticipation. The Principle of Supply and Demand is also
fundamental to this approach in that changes in supply and demand will have an effect on market
rents. The Principle of Substitution holds that market rents and capitalization rates tend to be set
by prevailing rates and rents at equally desirable substitute properties.
Forces outside of the property will also have an effect upon the income attainable at the property.
The state of the economy, political environment, crime rates, and new development are just a few
of the outside factors, which may influence rents and rates. This is the Principle of Externalities.
In general, the Income Capitalization Approach involves the estimation of net operating income.
This net operating income is then capitalized at an appropriate rate based upon that particular
property's risk and return profile.
Estimating the net operating income involves the analysis of market rents as well as contract
rents. This involves analyzing leases and rents at similar competing properties as well as the
encumbering leases at the subject property if applicable. From this analysis, a potential gross
income is derived, that is, income prior to vacancy and collection losses. Once a proper vacancy
rate is derived from the market, the effective gross income of the property may be derived by
subtracting this vacancy from the potential gross income. Expenses involved in the operation of
the property are analyzed and subtracted from the effective gross income to arrive at the net
operating income.
The next step involves the derivation of an appropriate capitalization rate. There are many
methods for developing capitalization rates.

capitalization.
Direct

requires
market-derived
capitalization rates from similar properties and transactions and then applies them to the subject

property without explicit attention to return on and return of capital. Only the first years Net
Operating Income (NOI) or the first stabilized years NOI is capitalized.
Yield capitalization is more complex and requires interpreting expectations and attitudes into
formulas designed to convert various income streams into present value. It is typically used
when the income stream is derived from terms of a lease or leases.
Yield capitalization will be the only method utilized as the entire finished portion of the subject
property is encumbered by a long term lease.
Existing Lease:
The subject property is a two-story professional office building containing 70,000 square feet of
space on 0.41 acres. The property has multiple tenants; there is also space available to lease.
Copies of each individual lease were requested but not provided to the appraisers. A breakdown of
tenant occupancy can be see below.

The Direct Capitalization method requires capitalizing a single years net operating income into
a value estimate. This net operating income reflects the estimated income on a stabilized basis.
The overall capitalization rate applied to the net operating income estimate contains provisions
for return on and of capital. This capitalization rate also accounts for any estimated future
fluctuation in income as well as future risk. In the valuation of the subject property by the Income
Approach, the leased fee value was estimated through direct capitalization. The developer of the
property did not provide the appraisers with leases.
Gross Income
Potential Gross Income reflects the maximum amount of income that a property is capable of
producing at full occupancy. The information provided to the appraisers indicates a stabilized gross
income of $1,328,871 for the subject property.
Expenses:
The expense projections are based on our knowledge of the Harrisburg Real Estate market to
determine the reasonableness of the expense estimates. As the rent estimated for the subject
involves a NNN lease scenario, the tenant would be responsible for all operating expenses.
51
Management Fees
Commercial real estate of the subject type needs to be professionally managed. Historically, the
management was done between an on-site manager (for maintenance) and the property owner.
Based on discussions with local real estate professionals, management fees typically range from
4% to 6%.
Expense Summary:
A total income and expense figure was provided to the appraisers by Matt Tunnell, of
GreenWorks Development, and was used in the stabilized statement. Broken down income and
expense information was not provided to the appraisers.

Having concluded that direct capitalization is the most suitable technique, an overall
capitalization rate (Ro) must be estimated. Three of the more common techniques for rate
derivation are briefly described as follows:
R can be derived from Debt Coverage (DCR) and Loan to Value (LTV) ratios.
R can be extracted directly from the market based on the sale price and anticipated income
generation of comparable properties, or based on interviews with market participants.

was chosen which reflects some of the risk that would be involved in purchasing a property of
this type that is not fully stabilized.
Value Conclusion Direct Capitalization:
The direct capitalization analysis can be found above. Applying the discount rate of 9.5% to the
stabilized net operating income provided to the appraisers yields a market value of $9,356,537
($888,871 / 0.095). Therefore, the market value of the Leased Fee interest in the subject
property, by means of the Income Capitalization Approach, based on the direct capitalization
analysis, as is, the date of our most recent inspection of the subject property, is estimated to
be $9,356,537, rounded to:
55
The Income Approach was developed because the subject property is encumbered with long-term
leases. A direct capitalization analysis was utilized to yield a as is value of the subject property
of $9,500,000.
The Sales Comparison Approach was considered, but not developed due to the lack of comparable
building sales in and around the City of Harrisburg.
In this analysis of the subject property, the Income Approach is given more weight toward the final
estimate of market value due to the fact that the property is encumbered by long term leases and a
potential investor would most likely purchase the property based on its income producing potential.
Therefore, it is our opinion that the estimated as is market value of the leased fee interest in the
subject property, as of March 26, 2013 is:
