What is a CMA?
Before they even open their doors, smart retailers determine their pricing strategies by studying their competition. Since you're thinking of selling your property, you can benefit from the same sort of study--a comparative market analysis (CMA). In addition to determining information about the appropriate listing price for your property, a CMA will give you other important information about the current real estate market, recent sales in your neighborhood, your home's competition, how long it may take to sell, your home's probable sales price, and an estimate of your net proceeds. This information will enable Team Ford to create an effective marketing plan for your property. A comparative market analysis establishes an appropriate listing price range for your home by analyzing recently sold homes that are similar to yours. Adjustments are made for the similarities and differences between these comparables and your home in terms of location, finished square footage, number of bedrooms and baths, age, condition, quality of construction, and extra features. After analyzing all these factors, including your motivation for selling, you and Team Ford can determine an appropriate listing price for your home. It's very important that you list your home with an accurate price right from the beginning. Generally, most of the best and highest offers come during the first few weeks when a home is viewed by the most potential buyers.

Suggested Listing Price: $600,000—$650,000
Remember a CMA is a suggested starting point in pricing a home using the most comparable properties to yours in the area. We take into effect the homes that have sold because these will tell you how much buyers are willing to pay for a home similar to yours. Our CMAs are also based on current homes for sale, or in other words your competition in the area. The ultimate determinant is buyer feedback that will tell you if you are attracting or detracting buyers from looking at your home based on your price. The other factor in selling a home is the condition that your home is in. For tips and suggestions on how to make your home more marketable, contact us and we will be happy to provide this information to you.
