    not if you want your money back

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Obviously, the offer is for less than what you paid. It is also for less than the current value, since the value has been increasing for 5 years.

    The current value is the original value, which we presume is your purchase price, multiplied by the gain each year, 1.0143, for 5 years. The multiplier is ...

    1.0143^5 ≈ 1.0735743

    so the current value is ...

    $1650·1.0735743 ≈ $1771.40

    If you want to be paid for the current value, you should not accept an offer lower than $1771.40.

    The offer amount you should accept depends on your goal in the transaction.
