In the recently decided case of Ace Hardware Corp. v. Little, the State of New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division agreed with the Supreme Court’s dismissal of the taxpayer’s petitions for failing to meet it’s burden by a preponderance of evidence. The trial court found the taxpayer’s appraisal inappropriate, in large part, due to the fact that the taxpayer’s appraiser utilized a “reconstruction cost approach” which was “not included in the treaties traditionally relied upon by real estate appraisers”. I was hoping there would be more details describing the “reconstruction” approach, but the decision does not offer an explanation.
