Craig Lenhart, Appellant, was present at the hearing. IdaMae Jensen, Assessor's Representative, and
Assessor Patti McLean were present.
On the petition, the Appellant presented four comparable sales from 2020 and 2022 of like construction and
age along Highway 106. He asked that comparable sale#1 be removed or replaced with a different sale.
The out-of-state buyer purchased the home so they would be adjacent to their family member. The
Assessor testified that the sale is considered a valid sale as it was listed on the open market and sold for less
than what it was listed for.
The Assessor presented three comparable sales along South Shore, as adjusted, ranging in value from
$817,618 to $997,418. The value of the subject parcel falls below this range.
The Board found no clear, cogent, or convincing evidence that the Assessor was in error.
Therefore, the Board sustains the value for the land at $134,055 and improvements at$610,350 for a total of
$744,405 for the subject parcel.
