RECORD — SAMA ASSESSMENT LOOKUP (SAMAView / mysama.ca), 2026-07-13
Found by Michael via SAMAView; screenshots preserved in
sama-screenshots-2026-07-13/ (parcel outline on satellite, two zoomed-out
context views).

THE PARCEL (this replaces guessing at "NW quarter"):
- Assessment ID: 381-000520202  (381 = RM of Grass Lake No. 381)
- Legal Land Description: PARCEL A, BLOCK/PLAN 102138364 ("Sup")
  -> It is a SURVEYED SUBDIVISION PARCEL out of NW 20-38-24-W3, not the
     full quarter — confirms Michael's recollection. Use "Parcel A,
     Plan 102138364" when ordering the ISC title; a registry agent can
     pull it directly from the plan number.
- Property Class: Other Agricultural
- Civic Address: unknown (rural)
- 100% ASSESSED VALUE: $198,100

MAP OBSERVATIONS (screenshot 01):
- Parcel is L-shaped: yard site (house + outbuildings) at the WEST edge on
  the grid road; a LARGE SLOUGH sits immediately east of the yard INSIDE
  the parcel (matches the 2026-07-13 site visit); a long arm of
  grass/hayland runs east.
- Neighbouring assessments visible nearby: 381-000520100 ($207,500),
  381-000520300 ($210,500), (another ~$210,000; one label partially
  obscured ~$?18,500) — i.e., the parcel's assessment is in line with the
  parcels around it.

EVIDENCE NOTE — SAMA RECORD PHOTO:
The SAMA property record carries a photo of the HOUSE in visibly maintained
condition: intact deck, cut grass, satellite dish. Date unknown (assessment
inspection photo) but it is an OFFICIAL, third-party BASELINE image of the
property in good order — a direct contrast to the 2026-07-13 site-visit
photos. Preserve alongside them for counsel.

RESOLVED 2026-07-13 — Michael pulled the full SAMA PROPERTY REPORT
(SAMAview-Overview_and_Assessmenta-2026-07-19.pdf + MySAMA.pdf + 4 map
PNGs, saved in this folder). Key data:

- TITLE ACRES: 39.98 (not 80; not a quarter). PT NW 20-38-24-W3, situated
  along the S boundary of the quarter. **ISC PARCEL 202849702** — order the
  title directly by this parcel number.
- LAND BREAKDOWN: 30.00 ac CULTIVATED (7 ac @ $1,816/ac + 23 ac @ $2,304/ac
  assessed productivity; Weyburn/Sutherland clay-loam associations) +
  3.00 ac OCCUPIED YARD SITE + 7 ac WASTE SLOUGH. (= the water Michael saw.)
- HOUSE (assessed, quality "4-Average"): 1-storey SFR, 1,188 sq ft
  (26x44 + 2x22), BUILT 1975, full basement (1,188), ATTACHED GARAGE
  728 sq ft (26x28), covered deck 192 sq ft (12x16). Heating only (no AC),
  8 plumbing fixtures (-3 adj). Physical depreciation 55%.
- ASSESSED (appraised) VALUES: land-residential $6,900 + agricultural
  $65,800 + residential improvements $125,400 = $198,100 total.
  (Taxable after ag/res percentages: $105,840 + $36,190 exempt.)
- REVIEWED: 27-Aug-2025 "Reinspection" — i.e., SAMA looked at it ELEVEN
  MONTHS ago; the record photo (maintained house) is that recent. Powerful
  for the waste claim: the official baseline vs. the 2026-07-10 site photos
  brackets the deterioration into a narrow, recent, vacant-under-Kelly
  window.
- NOTE: farm outbuildings (quonset, barn) are NOT in the assessed
  improvements (ag buildings generally unassessed/exempt) — their loss
  doesn't dent the $198,100 but absolutely dents market value and is the
  visible waste evidence.

VALUE CONTEXT (rough, not an appraisal): ~30 productive acres at regional
market rates (~$2,500-3,200/ac) ≈ $75-95k dirt; slough ≈ nil; the 1975
1,188-sqft bungalow w/ basement + double attached garage carries the rest —
if it is truly dry/sound, the $125k assessed improvement figure is a
plausible market anchor, giving a ~$180-220k asset BEFORE the Unity Credit
Union mortgage and BEFORE any discount for the failed quonset/barn and
general dereliction. ISC title (mortgage balance + liens) is the remaining
unknown.
