Sales Comparison Approach
There are four steps in the sales comparison approach. These steps are:
1. Find recent sales that are comparable to the subject property.
2. Analyze the features of these sales and compare them with the features of the subject property.
3. Adjust the comparable sales for the differences between the sales and the subject property.
4. Arrive at the value conclusion.
Elements of Comparison
Comparison and adjustments of sales should be performed using the following four elements of comparison:
1. Terms and condition of sale
2. Time of sale
3. Location
4. Physical characteristics
Quite often terms and condition of sale determine the price. Most real estate is purchases are loan based. The sale can be financed by banks, financial institution and non-institutional lenders. Some real estate transaction are also seller financed. In case of favorable seller financing, buyers might pay an inflated price, which distorts the fair market value of the property. Conditions of sale indicate the property rights being conveyed and whether an open-market transaction took place. It also has a crucial effect on the sales price. Therefore, the terms and conditions should be adjusted first.
The real estate market is dynamic and price shifts are noticeable within very short amount of time. The real estate events occurred during the last decade clearly illustrate instability of the market. Due to this fact, the time adjustment in the sales comparison approach has priority
Complete a market segmentation of no more than 1,400 words for your buyers. Be sure to include the following:
II. Explore the supply and demand conditions for your firm’s product. a) Evaluate trends in demand over time, and explain their impact on the industry and the firm. You should consider including annual sales figures for the product your firm sells. b) Analyze information and data related to the demand and supply for your firm’s product(s) to support your recommendation for the firm’s actions. Remember to
The real estate division was estimated to have a fair value of $13,890,000. This was determined by totaling the number of lots expected to sell within the next four years and multiplying it by the price per lot of $180,000. After determining total lot sales, a 20% discount rate was applied as suggested by current market conditions. Given the unique nature of the real estate development, it is not believed that there are any comparable developments to find a market multiple.
After identifying the sales targets, the strategies, tactics and actions to achieve them can be worked on. Gluck (2014), mentions that to identify underlying strategies and increase sales, a business can break into a new market segment by adapting an existing product or boosting the average sale per customer by using add-on sales or upselling premium features. When developing the sales strategies, the market segment, customers' motivations and expectations, and the capacity to meet customers' expectations should be considered.
This case involves an investigation of the factors that affect the sale price of Oceanside condominium units. It represents an extension of an analysis of the same data by Herman Kelting (1979). Although condo sale prices have increased dramatically over the past 20 years, the relationship between these factors and sale price remain about the same. Consequently, the data provide valuable insight into today’s condominium sales market.
This case investigates the factors that are affecting the sale price of Oceanside condominium units. The relationship between these factors and sale price has remained the same despite condo sale prices increasing drastically over the past 20 years.
When trying to determine the correct price, a number of factors must be considered: the market and its segments, the size of each segment, the ability to reach each segment, what distribution channels to target, whether to vary price by segment, the usefulness of promotional offerings, and whether the goal is to skim or penetrate each market.
Carefully evaluate the pros and cons of the segment markets and determine the market where the product has definite advantages over other
Government policies and subsides have a sizable impact on property price, and demand. The government can temporarily boost demand with tax credits, deduction and subsidies. From the customers point of view
2. There are many ways to differentiate the product or service and many buyers perceive these differences as having value
A difficult characteristic to understand about the housing market is how a price is given for a particular house. That price will be designated to that particular house alone. All houses have various pricing, so I can’t always assume that one will cost more or less than any other. The pricing for houses vary based on their characteristics. Each characteristic must be analyzed to determine its contribution or detraction toward the price. I have taken some of these characteristics and modeled the relationship between them and the price of real estate for a specific area.
