Dear Daniel Amaya,I appreciate the oppor tunity to share my business plan with you.
In order to inform you about the current happenings in today's market, I have prepared this comparative market analysis (CM A) especially for you. There are many proper ties on the market today, and each has different amenities, sizes, and values. By reviewing this CM A, you will have the information needed to price your home in the appropriate range in today's market.
Home buyers always do a lot of comparison shopping. In today's market it is especially impor tant to price your home right from the beginning and to get it "show ready". There are many homes available in all price ranges, but the homes that are priced right and show well are the ones that bring in qualiHed buyers.
Par t of this package includes a detailed copy of my personal marketing plan. We will cer tainly go over this in detail so that you feel comfor table to entrust your home sale to me. I am sure that once you review the plan, you will feel very satisHed with me marketing your home.
My goal is to help you sell your home quickly and at a fair market value. I look forward to working with you on the sale of your home.
Sincerely,
Mercedes Fitzgerald Mercedes FitzgeraldNo two homes are identical, which is why choosing a sales price or offer price for a home can be challenging. That's where the comparative market analysis, or CM A, is most useful.
What is a CM A?
The CM A is a side-by-side comparison of homes for sale and homes that have recently sold in the same neighborhood and price range. This information is fur ther sor ted by data such as type of home, number of bedrooms, number of baths, lot size, neighborhood, proper ty condition and features, and many other factors. The purpose is to show estimated market value, based on what other buyers and sellers have determined through past sales, pending sales and homes recently put on the market.
How is the CM A created?
CMAs are generated by using proper ty information from your real estate agent's multiple listing ser vice (MLS). The MLS is available to licensed members only, including brokers, salespeople, and appraisers, who pay dues to gain access to the ser vice's public and proprietar y data, including tax roll information, sold transactions, and listings input by all cooperating MLS members. Listing agents generate CM As for their sellers, and buyer's agents create them for their buyers so both sides know what current market conditions are for the homes they're interested in comparing.
How accurate are CM As?
The CM A is a here-and-now snapshot of the market, based on the most recent data available, but it can instantly be rendered obsolete by a new listing, or a change of status in a home with the same criteria. Why? The market is constantly changing - new listings, pending sales, closed sales, price reductions, and expired listings.
CMAs can vary widely, depending on the knowledge and skill of the person creating the CMA as well as the number and type of data Helds that are chosen. That means some features may not be included.
As informative as the CM A is, it should only be used as a tool and should not substitute for your real estate professional's knowledge and advice.
Averages
100.00%
Homes sold for an average of 100.00% of their list price.
It took an average of 6 days for a home to sell.
