What evidence did you present? Did you take comps - sales comps and/or equity comps? You may be aware already, but in general, people take photos of their property that need repairs e.g., cracks in slab/foundation, leaky roof, mold infection etc.

There were little conversation about the improvement itself. It was pretty spot on (I know, because we built this house). The problem was with their appraisal of the land. There are no comps in the area, and explanation why my lot has 275% multiplier while neighbor's one has 100% was "we assess their lot as a plot, and yours as acreage". My lot is slightly smaller then my neighbors. Two of these lots sit next to each other on the same street... No explanation why it is treated differently.
