The taxpayer was not present at the hearing. The Assessor was not represented at the hearing. The Appellant indicated in his appeal that he purchased the property in August 2016 for$38,000. There was no indication from the Appellant or the Assessor that this was not an arm's length agreement. The Assessor provided an analysis of six other comparable sales, in the vicinity of the subject parcel, for the period of June 2014 through September 2017. Documentation from the Assessor also indicated the subject property sold for a total of$38,000 in August 2016. The Board determined that the sales price provided a preponderance of evidence as to the fair market value of the subject parcel. The Board therefore overruled the Assessor's estimate of fair market value of$51,170 and set the land j value at$28,905 and the improvement value of$9,095 for a total of$38,000 for the subject parcel.
