Property Valuation
In Colorado, a 'before and after' appraisal may be required when:
AA. A property is being painted
BB. A government agency takes a partial taking of a property through eminent domain, requiring valuation of the property before and after the taking to determine just compensation✓ Correct
CC. A property is being sold to a new owner
DD. A property is being refinanced
Explanation
In a partial eminent domain taking (where only a portion of the property is acquired), the just compensation is often calculated as the difference between the property's 'before' value (the whole property before the taking) and the 'after' value (the remaining property after the taking). Both values require independent appraisal opinions.
