In this crazy market often times the appraised value is only about 80% of asking price so a safe fudge factor is to set expectations on having a cash position for more like ~350k to ~580k depending on whether you qualify for FTHB or not.5.

Different jurisdictions and areas implement land use vastly differently depending on several factors...so you may be fine to just continue the use...or it could be required to be demo'd if you want to pursue anything outside of the current land use...it all depends on the local codes.

Question about CMA but more in particular- Adjustments

Harvey,There are a variety of factors at play, region will play a factor, age of property will play a factor, diminishing returns plays a factor (for instance going from 2nd to 3rd bedroom will be more valuable then 3rd going to 4th) To me the key to to a CMA is get as close of comp as you can when it comes to these factors (square footage, bedrooms, bathrooms, age, size of garage, size of yard) Once you start diverting too far it become a bit more of an art then a science.
