Comparative Market Analysis

Determining the value of your home comes from looking at a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), considering influencing factors, and the relationship of a comprehensive marketing plan with a pricing strategy.  During the CMA process, we will review related properties recently active and sold on the market. Recent sales are the strongest indicator of what a current buyer and current seller are able to contract for a successful close, resulting in today’s fair market value. Sold properties illustrate the relativity of home location, features and salability with buyer interest. Current listings will indicate the level of competition and homes being compared against your property.

Influencing Factors

A number of factors influence buyer interest in both their willingness to make a purchase and the price they are willing to pay. Some factors like consumer confidence, the state of the economy, availability of money, and interest rates, are important considerations outside of our control. Other significant factors are also finite, such as the location, size, and features of the home. The condition of the home also has a substantial impact on buyer interest and their evaluation of what the home is worth when compared to competing listings.

Marketing & Pricing Strategy

In addition to consideration of a CMA and influencing factors, it is important to consider the impact a comprehensive, quality marketing plan will have in reaching the widest breadth of current homebuyers, and their perception of the value of the home. The presentation of your property impacts whether a homebuyer puts it above or below the value of your competitors. In short, they see the home as worth more or less than the others based on their own opinion and experience.
