What is a CMA?

Unlike a bank Appraisal conducted by an Appraiser, a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) is a property valuation method used primarily by real estate agents.

A CMA involves analyzing recent sales of similar properties in the same area to assess the property’s value. TheyΒ help sellers set realistic asking prices and assist buyers in making realistic offers.

This process is generally more complicated in the Gorge than in larger markets like Portland or Seattle. This is due to limited like-kind comparables.

How is Brett Different?

When conducting a first time evaluation for a property, Brett is known for digging in deeper than other real estate brokers.Β 

Looking at public records, obtaining detailed improvements from property owners, and using first-hand experiences, Brett can finely tune estimated property values unlike computer generated estimates which have never been to your property.

In addition, Brett determines highest and best use by evaluating the subject property’s zoning. This is especially important for unique properties that are encumbered or have unique zoning opportunities.
