Episode 072 - Myth Debunked: Comparable Distance and Date of Sale Rules
Myth Busters is such a good show. Their experiments to prove or disprove various tales. Today B will debunk the myth that an appraiser must comply with distance and date of sale rules when selecting comparables. Spoiler alert: there are no rules that say that.
In this episode, B talks about how the guidelines work and how you can better find comparable sales and even push back a little on appraisers when they stand hardfast on not being able to get past what they think is a “rule.”
SHOW NOTES
02:00 – “Rules”; Appraiser says, “I can’t…”; what they are saying is “I don’t know the rule”, or “I don’t want to…” 03:36 – Guidelines versus rules. 04:35 – Pending, listing, and expired sales. A prior sale of the subject itself. 06:03 – Maybe you do not need to exceed those guidelines. 08:07 – Start the search for comparables based upon close proximity and recent sale and then expand the area and time frame. 08:55 – Find properties that are comparable and similar to the similar. 09:22 – Proximity and recent sale has some validity but does not mean the property is more comparable. 10:14 – Examples about lender underwriting request. 11:55 – Search market area for comparables. Market area is the area a typical buyer would search for a home when making a purchasing decision. 13:10 – Examples of far exceeding distance and time. Geodesic Dome home. 15:09 – Don’t exclusively search for comparables based upon recent sale or close proximity. Find properties that are similar to the subject. 16:45 – Myth: comparable distance and time parameter “rules” is debunked.
