[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/long-before-the-world-series-this-ragtag-group-of-dc-property-owners-was-evicted-to-make-way-for-baseball/2019/10/24/50a945c8-f4d6-11e9-8cf0-4cc99f74d127_story.html[/quote] Sounds like they ended up getting a pretty good deal. [/quote] DP. I agree. The owner who paid $5000 for an appraisal that was $2.2M, when the city offered 1.2 million for a property assessed at $241,000 the year before? He got $1.5M. The thing is, the $2.2M wouldn't have materialized without the redevelopment, and his property stood in the way of that. I don't feel as badly for these owners as I do for the low income people displaced in the area, or really across all of DC.[/quote] You paid someone to appraise your property at a higher value, and surprise surprise, they turned in a higher valuation.
