Sales Comparison Approach Flashcards
A two-unit property without air conditioning rents for $1,000 per month for each
unit. Another similar two-unit property rents for $1,050 per month per unit because it has central air conditioning. The Gross Rent Multiplier (GRM) is 80. What is the indicated adjustment for AC for this two-unit property?
Capitalization of Rent Differences (one of six quantitative Techniques):
2 units X $50 per month = $100 per month rent increase.
$100 Month x 80 GRM = $8,000 value difference. The indicated adjustment for central air conditioning for this two-unit property is $8,000.

A seller determines that their house is worth $150,000. Market financing is running 6.5%. The buyer convinces the seller to offer private financing at 6%. In return, the buyer agrees to a sales price of $155,000. How does the appraiser adjust?
It looks like this property sold $5,000 above market on the face of it. You need to subtract the value of the financing from the price paid.
If the seller has paid points to make the purchase more attractive, then these points must be xxx from the xx xx if they resulted in an xx market sale.

How do you adjust in the case of a home that cost $200,000. The first mortgage was $150,000, and the seller paid 1.5 points for the buyer:
Selling price of home $200,000
Less value of points
(0.015 x $150,000) - 2,250
Adjusted selling price $197,750
Remember that points are calculated as a percentage of the amount of the mortgage.
If there are 20 houses on the market now and 5 sold in the last year - you are looking at a xx-year supply of homes currently on the market!

A home sold three months ago for $200,000. Since then, property values have appreciated by 1%. The appraiser estimates that inferior siding depreciates the total value by 2%. Furthermore, the home is impacted in a zoning change, which will claim another 3% of its value. Its value can be estimated at:
Sale Price $200,000
Plus 1% appreciation Adjusted sale price #1 $2,000
= $202,000
Less 2% for poor siding Adjusted sales price #2 $4,040
= $197,960
Less 3% rezoning impact - 5,939
Adjusted sale price #3 $192,021
A property should be adjusted for market conditions first and then adjust for other physical differences.

Property values rise in your region during ski season (November through April) by 5% and remain flat the rest of the year. Your comparable sold in September for $105,000. You are doing an appraisal in December. How much would you adjust?
$105,000 x .05 = $5,250
Note that this seasonal adjustment is one-time, not cumulative
You work in a beach town where property values increase by 10% during the summer months and then settle back down to pre-summer values. Your comparable sold in August for $150,000. You are doing an appraisal in November. How much should you adjust?
$150,000 – ($150,000 / 1.10) = $13,636 adjustment
Take the correct base. The selling price in November would be $150,000 - $13,636 = $136,364. Take 10% percent of $136,364 (which is $13,636.40) and add it to $136,364 and you get $150,000.

The first number is the month - 2 or February
The second number is the day - 04 or the fourth day
The third number is the year - 1999
The four over to the right is the day of the week - 1 is for Monday and 7 is for Sunday. Therefore, the date that is 240 days after June 9, 1998 is February 4, 1999, and…it is a Thursday.

Comparable 1 sells for $208,000 and contains 2,100 SF. Comparable 2 is similar in all aspects, except it contains 1,950 SF, and it sells for $203,500. If our subject property contains 2,200 square feet and Comparable 1 has 2,100 square feet, it would warrant a positive adjustment of
Paired Data Analysis:
We can subtract the square footages of the two homes (2,100 -1,950 = 150 SF) to obtain the difference in size between the two homes.
Then we can subtract the sale prices of the two homes ($208,000 - $203,500 = $4,500) to obtain the difference in sale price between the two homes.
Because the two homes are otherwise the same, we can conclude that the $4,500 difference in the sale price between the two homes is based on the 150 square foot difference in
size. We can even take these two numbers and divide them, to get an indication of how much each additional square foot adds to the value of the home. $4,500 I 150 = $30 per SF
From this example, we can extract the information that, in this instance, the market derived rate was $30 per square foot for an extra 150 square feet. Then we can take that data and apply it when we make adjustments for differences in size between the subject and the comparable sales.
For example, if our subject property contains 2,200 square feet and Comparable 1 has 2,100 square feet, it would warrant a positive adjustment of $30 x 100, or $3,000.
Sale A, which is a 1,600 square-foot home with a double garage, sold for $190,000 in February. Sale B, which is very similar except it had 1,700 square feet of living area and only a single garage, sold for $204,900 in October.
It has been determined that the indicated adjustment for square feet of living area is $38.00 per square foot and the adjustment for the difference in garages is $4,000.00. What is the market conditions (time) adjustment in $ total and % per month?
Assume the comparable sale we are adjusting sold 5 months ago for $200,000. What is the adjusted amount for this comp?
Paired Data Analysis:
1,700 SF - 1,600 SF= 100 SF
100 SF x $38 = $3,800 size adjustment
Sale B price: Adjustment for size Adjustment for garage
Sale B adjusted price
Earlier sale (Sale A)
Difference (time of sale) $ 15,100
$15,100 / $190,000 = .0795 or 7.95% increase over 8 months. 7.9 / 8 = 0.993% per month.
5 months X 0.993% per month= 4.965%. 200,000 X 4.965% = $9,930.
You could make a positive adjustment for market conditions of $9,900 (rounded).
