Comparative Market Analysis Skill
A CMA prices a home the way the market actually values it: against recent, similar, nearby sales — adjusted for the differences. This skill structures that analysis so the number is defensible: the comparables chosen and why, the adjustments made, the resulting range, and a pricing recommendation tied to the seller's goal.
Note: this is a pricing-analysis aid for a real-estate professional, not a formal appraisal or financial/legal advice. It works from the comparables and figures you provide; valuation depends on local market data and professional judgement. Never invent comp sales or prices — use the data given or mark it to source.
Working from a brief
Given a subject property and a few comps, build the CMA anyway — structure the analysis, apply reasoned adjustments, and give a range, marking any figure to source (confirm with MLS/records). Where comps are missing, explain what to pull rather than inventing sales. Never fabricate comparable prices.
