Richard Rambo presently owns the Marine Tower office building, which is 20 years old, and is considering renovating it. He purchased the property two years ago for $830,400 and financed it with a 20-year, 75 percent loan at 4.50 percent interest (monthly payments). Of the $830,400, the appraiser indicated that the land was worth $200,000 and the building $630,400. Rambo has been using straight-line depreciation over 39 years (1/39 per year for simplicity). At the present time Marine Tower is producing $53,900 in NOI, and the NOI and property value are expected to increase 2 percent per year. The current market value of the property is $888,000.
