Rule 701-71.24 - Valuation of dual classification property

Real estate with a dual classification of commercial/residential or industrial/residential shall be assessed at its actual value as defined in Iowa Code section 441.21.

(1)Allocation of dual classification values. The assessor shall value as a whole properties that have portions classified as residential and portions classified as commercial or industrial. After the assessor has assigned a value to the property, the value shall be allocated between the two classes of property based on the appropriate appraisal methodology. The assessor shall allocate land value proportionately by class.

(2)Notice of valuation. The valuation notice issued pursuant to Iowa Code section 441.23 shall include a breakdown of the valuation by class for the current year and the prior year.

(3)Protest of assessment. The valuation and assessment of property with a dual classification shall be considered one assessment, and any protest of assessment brought under Iowa Code section 441.37 or subsequent appeal must be made on the entire assessment. Protests of assessments on the valuation of only one class of property are not permitted. The board of review shall review the valuation in total as both classifications are subject to the board's adjustment in any review proceeding. Likewise, any tribunal or court reviewing the board's decision shall base its review on the entire assessment.

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 421.17, 428.4 and 441.21 as amended by 2013 Iowa Acts, Senate File 295.
