The persuasiveness of evidence does not depend on the quantity or amount thereof but on its effect in inducing belief. State Highway Comm'n v. Southern Dev. The sales comparison approach was present and relied upon in this appeal by both appraisers and the Respondent. It is an appropriate method for valuing property such as the subject. Although there were variances between each sales comparison presented, collectively they present substantial and persuasive evidence upon which a determination of value can be made.
Equal weight is placed on each sales comparison.
In the absence of the evidence of the other two competing approaches, any one of the sales comparisons would stand on its own. Individually any one of the approaches would be sufficient to establish value. The application shall contain specific grounds upon which it is claimed the decision is erroneous. Failure to state specific facts or law upon which the appeal is based will result in summary denial. Section 138.432, RSMo 1994.
