The ARV Question: Need Pointers on Using CMA for Accurate Comps!
Hey everyone! I've been working on mastering ARV (after repair value), but I still feel like it's a skill I haven't fully nailed yet. I've been using PropStream to pull comps, but lately, I've noticed the data feels a bit outdated. Recently, I started using CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) to get comps.
For those of you who are familiar with CMAs, do you have any pointers on how to best use them? And how accurate are the comps you're getting from the CMA compared to other tools like PropStream or MLS? I'd appreciate any tips or insights from your experience!
Thanks in advance!
