Sales Comparison Approach

The Sales Comparison Approach to value is the most widely used appraisal method for valuing residential property and vacant land.

 

The sales comparison approach is a feature by feature comparison between the subject property and similar properties that have sold recently in the market area (these are called comparable sales or simply comps).

 

The more similar the property, the more reliable the value estimate.
