Appraisals In For Real Estate Odon Wishes To Purchase

Last updated on Friday, February 16, 2018

(ODON) - Appraisers hired by the town of Odon have completed their valuation of a piece of property the town may be interested in purchasing.

The Odon Journal reports that McActee Appraisal service of Loogootee valued the Odon garage real estate at $38,000 while Jeffrey Palmer Appraisal Service put the price at $46,000.

State law prohibits a municipality from paying more that the average of two appraisals which would be $42,000.

Board members Chuck Krieg and Vernon Graber discussed the appraisals at a recent meeting and Krieg suggested a possible offer of $40,000 for the property which is located close to the town hall.

Supervisor Josh Chesney told the board the building needed some lighting work but agreed the property would be a good buy for the city.

No final action on the proposal was taken at the meeting.
