2. COMPETITIVE MARKET ANALYSIS – CMA The competitive market analysis (CMA) is really a comparison analysis used by real estate agents to aid in determining a proper list price for a property.
3. The CMA provides information on similar properties that have been placed in the marketplace so that they can be compared with the property that is to be evaluated to determine an offering price. These comparables are often referred to as comps . CMA is NOT a formal appraisal.
4. CMA form (CMA-11) uses three categories of comparables: 1. Properties for sale now are usually a little overpriced. 2. Reported sale prior to (6) months gives a good estimated value of the property. 3. Expired listings prior to (6) months are usually overpriced properties. This is usually why they do not sell.
5. The on–market–now list merely indicates to an owner the prices that competitors (other owners) are asking for their products (homes). The reported–sold–past–six–months list is more valuable than the list of current properties on the market because it shows actual sale prices.
6. Adjustments to comparable properties should be made based upon the property that is the subject of the CMA. The adjusted price is known as the adjusted selling price .
7. #1 $450,000 #2 $425,000 Everything is the same but what you see in the pictures. #3 $475,000 How Much? Between $450,000 and $475,000
8. For example, you can obtain comps from the Boards of Realtors. If you are in the Orange County area, use: XMLS.WEB.SOCAL.COM It is possible to download information from a multiple listing service in a matter of minutes. The following is a list of the Multiple Listing Services. To use these databases you will need the login or public I.D. and password or private I.D.
9. An agent could be liable for damages if a CMA negligently omitted recent similar sales and used comparables that resulted in the owner selling a property for less than the fair market value.

16. ENCUMBRANCES An encumbrance is any thing that can affect the ownership of the property. Liens (Money encumbrances) Non-money encumbrances We will deal mostly with liens in estimating the cash proceeds.

22. NOTES CARRIED When the seller carries back a note this will decease the amount of cash he will receive.
