Description

State Requirements

Whether for a buyer or seller, the comparative market analysis, properly done, can mean several thousands extra dollars in their pockets, and can determine whether a deal can be struck at all. But because it’s such a well-worn tool, it’s tempting for a licensee to get complacent with the CMA, and “phone it in.”

Don’t be that licensee!

This course covers the how-tos of a professionally researched comparative market analysis.

Course Highlights:

The three-step approach to market analyses: the market, the property, the numbers
Sources for subject property data and market data
How to prioritize criteria when selecting comparables
How to adjust and homogenize selected comparables
How to weight selected comparables when selecting a list price range
How to use expired and active listings to inform pricing strategy
Market readiness strategies for the seller and the property
Listing strategies
Negotiating strategies for any market (creating win-win transactions)
