“The process of deriving a value indication for the subject property by comparing market information for similar properties with the property being appraised, identifying appropriate units of comparison, and making qualitative comparisons with or quantitative adjustments to the sale prices (or unit prices, as appropriate) of the comparable properties based on relevant, market-derived elements of comparison.”
The Sales Comparison Approach
The appraisal principle that states that when several similar or commensurate commodities, goods, or services are available, the one with the lowest price will attract the greatest demand and widest distribution. This is the primary principle upon which the cost and sales comparison approaches are based.
The Principle of Substitution
“The concept that the value of a particular component is measured in terms of its contribution to the value of the whole property, or as the amount that its absence would detract from the value of the whole”.
The Principle of Contribution
“The result of the cause and effect relationship among the forces that influence real property value.”
The Principle of Change
“The perception that value is created by the expectation of benefits to be derived in the future”.
The Principle of Anticipation
Of the three appraisal approaches, the Sales Comparison Approach relies most heavily on the economic principle of:
Contribution
Substitution
Equalization
Anticipation
Substitution
“The result of the cause and effect relationship among the forces that influence real property value” is the definition of the principle of
Anticipation
Supply and Demand
Change
Balance

“In economic theory, the principle that states that the price of a commodity, good, or service varies directly, but not necessarily proportionately, with demand, and inversely, but not necessarily proportionately, with supply.
The Principle of Supply and Demand
In a real estate appraisal context, the principle of supply and demand states that the price of real property varies directly, but not necessarily proportionately, with demand and inversely, but not necessarily proportionately, with supply” .
“Between purchasers or tenants, the interactive efforts of two or more potential purchasers or tenants to make a sale or secure a lease.
The Principle of Competition
“The principle that real property value is created and sustained when contrasting, opposing, or interacting elements are in a state of equilibrium”.
The Principle of Balance
“The appraisal principle that real property value is created and sustained when the characteristics of a property conform to the demands of its market” .
The Principle of Conformity
“In appraisal, the concept that the value of an inferior property is enhanced by its association with better properties of the same type”.
Principle of Progression
“In appraisal, the concept that the value of a superior property is adversely affected by its association with an inferior property of the same type”.
Principle of Regression
In appraisal, off-site conditions that affect a property’s value.
Principle of Externalities
- the ability to properly identify the problem to be addressed; and
- the knowledge and experience to complete the assignment competently; and
- recognition of, and compliance with, laws and regulations that apply to the appraiser or to the assignment.”
Competency
“An appraiser must………..correctly complete research and analyses necessary to produce a credible appraisal”.
STANDARD 1 of USPAP
“In reporting the results of a real property appraisal, an appraiser must communicate each analysis, opinion, and conclusion in a manner that is not misleading”.
STANDARD 2
Adjustments made in the sales comparison process always start with:
The subject
The comparable
Either subject or comparable
Neither the subject nor comparable
The comparable
The first step in the Sales Comparison Approach procedure is
Verify the information
Select relevant units of comparison
Define the scope of work
Research the market
Research the market
Which of the following is the sales comparison formula?
Price of comparable ± adjustments = value of subject
Price of comparable – adjustments = price of subject
Price of subject ± adjustments = value of comparable
Price of subject + adjustments = value of comparable
Price of comparable ± adjustments = value of subject
Which of the following is NOT a common unit of comparison when appraising 2-4 unit properties?
Price per SF of GLA
Price per room
Price per SF of GBA
Price per bedroom
Price per SQ of GLA is not used. We use Price per SF of GBA.
The principle of competition can be between
Purchasers only
Tenants only
Purchasers and tenants
Purchasers and tenants as well as between sellers and landlords
Purchasers and tenants as well as between sellers and landlords
