Comparative market analysis is an
essential part of every real estate agent's job. It is used to determine the
value of a property through
comparison to similar
property transactions
located within a certain radius. A CMA
will accurately
establish a
sale
price. It will also
guide buyers in deciding on a
fair offer. As an
agent, you
know that conducting a thorough and professional CMA is critical to
minimizing
time on the market as well as ensuring that your clients receive
or make an offer that is fair and reasonable.

Every agent
knows that a working
knowledge of the area
in which a property is listed gives the agent and his clients a distinct
advantage.
A market evaluation will determine the
value of homes in the
neighborhood based on
recent sales, but it is also partly
subjective.
The true value of any home is ultimately determined by how much a buyer is
willing to pay for it, and each buyer sees each home differently. A
good agent will be able to
glean the pertinent
information from a market analysis and apply it to a particular property.
