What Is a CMA, Anyway?

The Competative Market Analysis (CMA) utilizes real world data from the MLS to integrate the sales price agaist a host of property features.  It beats Zillow’s “Guesstimate” as it takes from the regional MLS in real time.  However, NO TWO HOMES ARE IDENTICAL!!!  Location inside a community, lot size, sun exposure, neighbor privacy, landscape condition and quality, roof age, paint, trim, driveway size, street width and parking, and other factors affect real world value from the exterior of the home.  Curb appeal is the first impression and often can be a deal killer. First impression upon entry to the home is even more vital.

The CMA is therefore a starting point to compare basic features.  The next step – and before you spend a dime on repairs – is to have the real estate professionals visit your property to review your property to round out the comp report with information the CMA cannot possibly cover and offer advice to obtain the best return on your sale – highest possible price, with least amount of expense in the shortest p[ossible time.

What About Instant Cash Offers – AKA Wholesale Buyers

Consequently, this is where the so-called “iBuyer” and Instant Cash Offer investors FAIL MISERABLY at protecting your interests. They use fear and cloudy math to talk homeowners into selling wholesale, costing homeowners $1000’s in equity retun on sale. Homes are NEVER identicle and the market is driven by consumer appeal, marketing and timing.  The idea that home value is relative, is a Wall Street lie bought into by those seeking a shortcut. Carvana thought they could scale a wholesale buying program for car sellers and buyers, and FAILED MISERABLY!  Homes are infinitely more complex…

For best return, there is NO SHORTCUTS.
