Complaint Log ARB Hearings

02/11/2020 Warren Mabry PID 832034

Complaint:

Having to wait over two hours past scheduled ARB hearing time was unreasonable.

Believed an allocated 5 minutes was not enough time to present his case. Felt ARB panel showed no interest in property owner’s evidence. Argued market value unfair due to the process used to determine market

value was flawed. Property owner filed for arbitration.

02/14/2020 Bobby Green PID 285606

On 10/15/2019 property owner had an ARB hearing for the year 2018. In that hearing, removed exemptions were reinstated. However, on 01/01/2018, property was only a vacant lot. Exemptions cannot be applied to a vacant lot. The ARB made an error in reinstating the exemptions.. Property owner is demanding exemptions be applied as granted by his hearing. District has refused to reinstate the property exemptions. ARB attorney will write letter to property owner explaining the ARB error. ARB to reschedule a hearing to correct the error. Property owner does not accept there was an error and continues to insist exemptions be reinstated. He is taking his case to the American Statesman.

There’s the Bump in the Bumpy Road

At the end of 2019 we looked for a bumpy road starting with an

upcoming election year, continuing trade discussions and steady

but un-inspiring global economic conditions . Now we have our first

bump and it is a doozy.

Officially now designated a pandemic, the corona virus has led to

economic suspensions imposing near-term pressures, not only on

China, but extending throughout the world. Deaths in China and

beyond have led to drastic state instituted and airline imposed

travel constrictions and the consumer in China is staying home.

Before this shock, China’s GDP had remained at its lowest level in 29

years. That, at least, showed a moderate stabilization from a steady

decade decline, but due to a move from consumer driven growth to

investment driven growth, it could also signal a major challenge in investment driven growth, it could also signal a major challenge in

turning such a large economy especially one with matching

demographic challenges.

In a positive move, China has offered force majeure support to

national and international companies disrupted by the virus. Force

majeure is declared when contractual obligations cannot be met for

reasons beyond their control. It shows an unexpectedly positive and

responsible side of Chinese officials.

The threat of the virus and its resulting grip on trade, ripples

world wide. This, just as signs of growth and stabilization, has begun

to sprout internationally. It could particularly affect Europe, one of

China’s largest trading partners.

The European Central Bank (ECB) had just announced, under new

leadership, to review its radical stimulus program, which has been in

place since 2003 and has held rates low. Although the ECB will keep

its monthly assets purchases steady (at €20B per month) as an

easing tool, it was reacting to stronger growth in the economy –

now that could change. Before, those very low – to negative –rates

have forced funds into our markets to garner any earnings.DRAFT

The Fed May Have to Rethink

The risk-off impact of corona virus could detrimentally impact

the growth that has been percolating in the US. Because of

airline cancellations, and closings from Disney to Starbucks’ in

China, animal spirits may move towards a safe harbor. Much

will depend on the intensity and spread of the virus and the fear

it breeds. Historically however the market impact from such

virus shocks has been sharp but also short-lived.

In early January, the Fed had remained cautiously optimistic

and considered the US economy ‘appropriate’ to continue to

support expansion. The economy was expected to support

inflation symmetric to the 2% inflation target. Now with the

corona virus and its economic impacts spreading, the market

Immune: world epidemics and global stock market performance

Stock Market Shocks from Past Virus Events

corona virus and its economic impacts spreading, the market

sees a potential (although overdone) possibility for multiple rate

cuts in 2020.

The Fed did adjust its Interest on Excess Reserves (IOER) rate

to 1.6% (from 1.55%). This is the rate at which the Fed pays

banks to keep excess reserves at the Fed. The move is part of

their continuing effort to maintain sufficient liquidity in the

system and keep the primary repo rates in an acceptable range.

The US economy has been supported by a firm job

market, which then buoys consumer spending. Add to that a

rebounding housing sector (based on lower mortgage

rates), diminished risks from trade wars, as well as a Brexit

decision (at long last) and you feel ground solid enough to

generate and sustain the fourth quarter GDP of 2.1%.DRAFT

Fear not the Fed is Moving Rates

It is historically unusual for the Fed to change course in an election year. It has stated its intention to keep rates steady and defer

adjustments without a major change in economic strength and inflation. But speculating on how the virus – or an unforeseen bump from

geo-politics - is purely speculative. History says the impact will be short-lived but …

The markets have shown a strong risk-off move in January taking the 5 to 10 year area into another inversion. Money has poured in this

area of the curve for safety as well as positive comparative rates.

With the short end currently holding its own and the threat of continuing rate declines it is safe to say an extension is prudent.

We have a new Treasury curve data point coming mid-year. The Treasury has re-constituted the 20-year bond. This while Secretary

Mnuchin contemplates and floats ideas for a 50 and perhaps even 100 year bond.

Your Portfolio As of January 31, 2020

P&A constantly reviews your portfolio for optimal asset allocation and a controlled average maturity because a diversified portfolio can better adjust to volatile market conditions.

The graphs below show asset allocations by market sector and by maturity. They do reflect our ongoing anticipation of lower rates into 2020. These rate cuts and the potential of more decreasing rates indicates the need to extend portfolios. Extending now will lock in yields even though rates may decrease and provides for extra safety.

The offer from the Austin Board of Realtors is disingenuous. It would be illegal for us to change market values without having the data to support those changes. Using aggregate data to do across‐the‐board increases would violate the Texas Property Tax Code, International Association of Assessing Officers Mass Appraisal Standards, and Uniform Standards of Professional Practices. Travis County property owners deserve better. During a time where property owners are struggling with affordability issues, every dollar matters. We cannot and will not increase property values without the data to support it. We are required to appraise properties at market value and the only way to determine that is by using market data. Despite our efforts to collect data from a variety of sources, the limited data we have does not indicate any change in current market values. We remain committed to working with our taxing entities to find a solution to this issue that is legal and fair for Travis County property owners.

However, each property shall be appraised based upon the individual characteristics that affect the property’s market value, and all available evidence that is specific to the value of the property shall be taken into account in determining the property’s market value.   Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice  ‐ Standard 5‐5 In developing a mass appraisal, when necessary for credible assignment results an appraiser must: 

a.       Collect, verify and analyze such data as are necessary and appropriate to develop:                                  i.            The cost new of the improvements                                ii.            Depreciation;                              iii.            Value of the land by sales of comparable properties;                              iv.            Value of the property by sales of comparable properties                                v.            Value by capitalization of income or potential earnings (i.e., rentals, expenses, interest rates, capitalization rates, and vacancy data); 

  Comment: This Standard rule requires appraisers engaged in mass appraisal to take reasonable steps to ensure that the quantity and quality of the factual data that are collected are sufficient to produce credible appraisals. For example, in real property, where applicable and feasible, systems for routinely collecting and maintain ownership, geographic, sales, income and expense, cost, and property characteristics data must be established. Geographic data must be contained in as complete a set of cadastral maps as possible, complied according to current standards of detail and accuracy. Sales data must be collected, confirmed, screened, adjusted, and filed according to current standards of practice. The sale file must contain, for each sale, property characteristics data that are contemporaneous with the date of the sale. Property characteristics data file must contain data contemporaneous with the date of the appraisal including historical data on sales, where appropriate and available. The data collection program must incorporate a quality control program, including checks and audits of the data to ensure current and consistent records.

Hi Marya,  Great seeing you yesterday. Below is the response from our counsel. Generally your statements are accurate however I wanted to be sure that we provided you with the nuance you may need for your TUs.  Thanks, Korry

Korry,   As we have previously discussed Travis CAD has ongoing issues related to ABOR/CoreLogic and denial of access to market data, which will impact our ability to provide accurate appraisals of all property in Travis County.   Recently ABOR has taken further actions to specifically deny Travis CAD access to market data. We have explored multiple alternative sources of market data, unfortunately most are denied to us or produce extremely limited data.  Because the potential impact to my taxing units, specifically to our school districts in a property value study year, I am going to have to start

having extremely difficult conversations with them.  I do not want to misstate any facts and want to verify my understanding of the property value study from prior conversations with you and other members of PTAD staff.   

2020 will be a Property Value Study year for Travis CAD school districts  The comptroller uses market data acquired from both Travis CAD and all other available sources when 

conducting the property value study   A public information request in 2019 showed that the Comptroller does have access to market data from ABOR 

and this data is used in the property value study.    Is this still the case for 2020?  

The comptroller considers market data gathered from the CAD and other sources to be (work in progress?) excluded from open records requests prior to the completion of the property value study.  Appraisal districts may request and receive the data once the preliminary findings have been completed, i.e. during the protest period, or after final findings have been published. 

Generally, the margin of error for determining valid or acceptable values is 5 %.      If the appraised values fall outside of the margin of error it is an “Invalid Finding”.  If an invalid finding is determined there is a possibility that the school district might qualify for grace period and 

be held harmless for the purposes of school funding.    In grace period local value is assigned rather than state value.    Travis CAD school district can qualify for grace period in 2020 if: 

1. In 2020 the local value is invalid and does not exceed the state value 2. In 2016 and 2018 the local value was valid 3. In 2020 the aggregate local value of all studied categories is not less than not less than 90% of the lower 

limit of the margin of error  This calculates to margin of error of 14.5%  (or overall ratio of no lower than 85.5%). 

4. Travis CAD was in compliance with the scoring requirement of the 2019 MAP review.  Invalid finding will trigger another property value study in the subsequent year.   Grace period runs two consecutive years and will does not reset until the CAD has passed two consecutive 

property value studies  Please let me know if I am misunderstanding anything or if there are other pertinent facts I should be aware of.   Thanks, Marya D. Crigler, RPA Chief Appraiser Travis Central Appraisal District 8314 Cross Park Drive Austin TX 78754 (512) 834‐9317 ext. 337
