When preparing a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), which property does an agent compare to the chosen comparables?

In the process of preparing a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), the agent focuses on the seller's property to establish a fair market value. The seller's property is the main subject of the CMA, as the analysis aims to compare it with similar properties that have recently sold, are currently on the market, or were taken off the market within the same geographical area.

A CMA typically includes properties similar in size, condition, features, and location, which helps the agent provide the seller with an informed opinion on pricing strategies. By using the seller's property as a benchmark, the agent can accurately assess how the property fits within the current market landscape. This analysis ultimately aids the seller in making informed decisions about pricing and marketing their property effectively.
