O. Box 1089 Port Arthur, Tx 77641 c!o P A City Attorney Valecia Tezeno Dear Val, 982-1197 p.l ~ ~I ~~ ~. ~. ~. art Any.:, 1 would like to extend my deepest appreciation to you for choosing me as your realtor to help assist. with the Neighborhood Stabilization Program. Per our first meeting which was held on October 14a', 2009, I was informed of the City's intention on seizing numerous properties for judgments and abandonment. I was asked at that time, what fee would I charge for evaluating each piece of property in order to determine a fair markehvalue. A second meeting was held January 21 and at that time my company have a~~reed to accept the City's offer of charging a fee of $65.00, all cost included, per marker analysis for each property being evaluated. A Cb4A, (comparable market analysis) will be performed on each property using comparables (other properties that have sold in the area within a specific period of time) in order to determine market value. A BPO (brokerprice opinion) will be rendered. I am excited and look forward to starting this project. If there is any additional information that is needed, please let me know. This letter will serve as an agreement between the City of Port Arthur and' Lou Richard's Realty. Yours iy, .ou Richar carer/broker Lou Richard's Realty
