Evaluates appraisal methodologies, assumptions, market data, highest and best use analyses, comparable properties, adjustments, capitalization techniques, cost estimates, depreciation, and reconciliation of value conclusions. Performs complex fee appraisals and develops opinions of fair market value using the sales comparison, income, cost, and/or other appropriate valuation approaches. Conducts appraisals of highly specialized or unique NASA real property and assets, including technical, research, test, infrastructure, and launch-related assets for which comparable market transactions may be scarce or nonexistent.
