The engine computed a reconciliation factor (rf_raw) of 1.4083 (B band). Geographic factor: 0.94 (metro_calibrated resolver).

| 27.5-Year Residential Real Property structure (39yr commercial) | $253,304 | 89.3% |
For this fixture, the engine used 41.5% land allocation from source: statistical_premium_floor. This means the engine's component-bottom-up reconstruction cost exceeded 2.0× the implied depreciable basis after subtracting land, the premium land floor was applied to keep the study within audit-defensible territory. This is common for resort-tier properties where land scarcity premiums dominate the purchase price.
The engine computed a reconciliation factor (rf_raw) of 1.4339 (B band). Geographic factor: 0.94 (metro_calibrated resolver).
