hey everyone my name is paul vachesky
[2]
and welcome to the real estate classroom
[4]
youtube channel hey real quick do me a
[5]
favor give this video a thumbs up hit
[7]
that red subscribe button click on the
[8]
notification bell comments questions
[10]
down below would appreciate it okay so
[12]
in today's video we're going to discuss
[14]
the sales
[14]
comparison approach to value or
[17]
sometimes called the market
[19]
data approach it's the first type of
[21]
appraisal that we are going to discuss
[23]
i'm going to do two more the cost
[25]
approach to value
[26]
in the income approach to value but this
[28]
one is the sales comparison approach
[31]
let's get to it
[33]
[Music]
[39]
so in this video we're going to discuss
[41]
a type of appraisal called the sales
[43]
comparison approach or sometimes called
[45]
the market data approach
[48]
i briefly in my previous video we
[51]
discussed the three types or the
[53]
the three approaches to value we just
[56]
gave the 50
[57]
000 foot view now i'm going to do a
[59]
video on each one of these types of
[62]
appraisals
[62]
and we're going to dive deep into each
[64]
one and so you understand how the
[66]
mechanics and the processes of each one
[69]
work but today we're going to focus on
[71]
the sales comparison approach or
[73]
sometimes called the market data
[75]
approach
[76]
and remember that uh this is this type
[79]
of approach to value is used for
[81]
um we have the subject property that
[84]
we're trying to determine the value on
[86]
we don't know what the value is and
[87]
we're going to use
[88]
comparables similar properties that have
[90]
sold in the last uh oh let's say three
[93]
to six months that are similar in
[95]
utility
[96]
that we're going to use to determine the
[98]
value now just to refresh your memory
[100]
here
[101]
we typically use these types of
[103]
appraisals for residential type property
[106]
and vacant land with no improvements on
[108]
them
[109]
again we compare our subject property
[111]
that's the property that's getting the
[113]
appraisal that's the property we're
[115]
trying to determine what the value is
[117]
and we use comparables so we're
[120]
determining the value by comparison is
[122]
essentially what we're doing
[124]
now understand homes that are currently
[126]
for sale
[127]
or even those that are under contract
[129]
typically the
[130]
appraiser will not use as part of the
[136]
the value processing all right number
[139]
three or the next one is
[140]
we use a minimum of three comparables
[144]
to determine the value and then
[146]
understand the appraiser is going to
[148]
search the immediate area
[150]
where the subject property is located to
[153]
find those comparables and then
[156]
we extend the search area
[159]
as we need more and more comparables
[163]
all right and then the last two things
[165]
on your screen here
[166]
just remember adjustments are made to
[169]
the comparable
[170]
properties to adjust for the differences
[173]
between the properties and
[175]
you add to the lesser property and
[177]
subtract from the better property
[180]
we're going to talk you're going to i'm
[182]
going to illustrate that in the next
[183]
couple of slides so let's get to that
[186]
all right so let's take a look at how
[188]
the process evaluation
[190]
actually works now over here in your
[192]
left hand column
[193]
these are what we call the categories of
[196]
adjustments
[198]
all right so we have things like the
[199]
number of bedrooms the number of garages
[201]
features or amenities location now
[204]
as i said in my previous video there is
[208]
probably a dozen 15 maybe 16 different
[212]
categories that we're going to make
[214]
adjustments for because not every
[216]
property has
[217]
every feature so as you can see along
[220]
the top here we have our subject
[221]
property which is 1 2
[223]
3 main street our first comparable is
[225]
610
[226]
main street and it sold
[229]
excuse me the actual sale price was 240
[233]
000 we have comparable number two
[237]
and that's at 10 bend street
[240]
and it sold for 260 000
[244]
and then we have comparable number three
[247]
1415
[248]
y street and it sold for
[252]
275 000 now understand these are
[255]
actual sale prices these are three
[257]
comparables that have recently sold
[260]
probably within the last six months and
[263]
those were the actual sale prices
[265]
and so what we're going to do is we run
[267]
down these different amenities here and
[270]
we start
[271]
and we start determining what has which
[273]
property has
[274]
these features and which one doesn't
[276]
we're going to make adjustments to these
[278]
sale prices in the end at the bottom
[282]
we're going to come up with our adjusted
[285]
sale price now
[286]
i i know there's going to be a question
[288]
why doesn't the appraiser just simply
[290]
take
[291]
these three properties and
[295]
add them together and divide by three
[296]
and use the average well maybe an a lazy
[299]
appraiser would do that but that's not
[301]
the proper technique or process to do it
[304]
so let's go through
[305]
uh and start making adjustments so our
[308]
subject property
[309]
123 main street it is a three-bedroom
[312]
house
[313]
now let's look at the comparables
[315]
comparable number one
[317]
has a three-bedroom is a three-bedroom
[319]
house as well so
[320]
there's going to be no adjustment for
[323]
that because
[324]
they're similar all right but let's look
[326]
at comparable two and three
[328]
both of those are four bedrooms four
[330]
bedrooms do not look like
[332]
our three bedroom so how do we make in
[334]
monetary terms
[336]
how do we make comparables 2 and 3
[340]
look like ours so we're going to have to
[343]
deduct from that actual sale price so
[348]
uh the the appraiser has determined that
[351]
each bedroom or the value of each
[353]
bedroom
[354]
in that area is ten thousand dollars now
[357]
i know i'm going to get this question
[359]
where do they get that value from
[361]
number one that's beyond the scope of
[362]
what we're trying to do here you do not
[364]
need to know that for
[366]
your licensing exam but to answer the
[368]
question is
[369]
appraisers in each locality they have a
[372]
a a list of valuations for each type of
[376]
feature
[377]
so if you live in dallas texas all the
[379]
appraisers are going to know that a
[381]
bedroom
[382]
each bedroom is is valued or is worth x
[384]
amount of dollars a pool is worth x
[386]
amount of dollars
[387]
which is going to be different than in
[389]
bismarck north dakota
[391]
so the appraisers have that that uh that
[394]
data available to them in the area that
[397]
wherever this property is located
[399]
uh the appraiser have the appraisers
[401]
have determined that
[402]
each bedroom has a value of ten thousand
[405]
dollars and remember because two and
[406]
three
[407]
have four bedrooms and ours only has
[409]
three we got to adjust
[411]
down we have to make the the comparables
[414]
look like
[414]
ours in monetary terms so
[418]
ten thousand dollars is going to be
[419]
deducted from the actual sale
[422]
price now let's look at how many garage
[424]
spaces
[425]
each of these properties have
[428]
our subject property has two bedrooms
[430]
comparable number one has two bedrooms
[432]
as well so there
[433]
is no adjustments that's done but let's
[436]
look at comp 2
[438]
and comp 3. both of those have three
[440]
garage spaces so
[442]
the appraisers in that area have
[443]
determined that each garage space is
[446]
worth 5 000 bucks so because
[448]
comp 2 and 3 is bigger than ours we have
[452]
to subtract
[454]
and so we're going to subtract 5 000
[457]
from comp 2 and comp 3.
[461]
all right so let's take a look at
[462]
features and amenities
[464]
so our subject property has a pool
[467]
comparable number one
[469]
does not and comparable two and three
[472]
both have pools so in comparable two and
[475]
three because no adjustment is needed
[478]
there's zero dollar amount that we have
[480]
to take into consideration but let's
[481]
look at comparable number one
[483]
comparable number one does not have a
[485]
pool but ours does so how do we make
[488]
comparable number one look like ours
[491]
well the appraisers have determined that
[493]
uh
[494]
the pool is worth twenty five hundred
[496]
dollars so the appraiser is going to
[498]
add twenty five hundred dollars to that
[501]
two hundred and forty thousand dollar
[503]
sale price in the adjusted sale price
[507]
column because it does not have a pool
[510]
and we're trying to make it look like
[511]
ours so they're gonna add twenty five
[513]
hundred dollars now notice
[514]
the twenty five hundred dollars here is
[516]
going to be added eventually
[518]
to that 240 000
[522]
sale price
[525]
location so the lot that our property on
[528]
is just average
[530]
the lot that comparable number one is on
[533]
is just average
[534]
the lot that comparable number two is on
[537]
is just
[538]
average but look at comparable number
[540]
three
[541]
it's on an above average lot
[544]
now what makes a lot average or above
[546]
average or whatever
[548]
well there could be a lot of reasons but
[550]
let's just say for example in our
[552]
scenario
[553]
that comp number three their lot that
[555]
they're on
[556]
has a great view maybe a water view or a
[558]
view of the river or the ocean or
[560]
whatever the case may be and
[562]
comparable one and two does not so
[565]
there are no adjustments for comparable
[567]
one and two in this category
[569]
however because it's a better lot
[574]
we're gonna adjust down remember we're
[576]
trying to get
[577]
the comparable to look like our subject
[580]
property that's why we make the
[581]
adjustments to the comparables
[583]
the appraiser has determined that the
[585]
the value is five thousand dollars so
[587]
we're gonna
[588]
deduct five thousand dollars off of this
[592]
275
[593]
000 sale price that comparable number
[596]
three has
[597]
now as you can see if this was a real
[599]
appraisal the appraiser would continue
[601]
down with all the categories
[603]
but we're going to stop here i think
[606]
i've illustrated it enough so you
[608]
understand
[609]
how the process works so one of the
[611]
final things that's going to happen is
[613]
we have
[614]
all the adjustments made to comp number
[616]
one we've made all the adjustments to
[618]
comp number two and we've made all the
[619]
adjustments to comparable number three
[622]
now we're going to add them up and let's
[625]
see what the is
[626]
the adjusted sale price is for each
[628]
comparable
[631]
so we let's look at comparable number
[633]
one it had an
[634]
actual sale price three six months ago
[637]
whatever it may be of 240 000.
[639]
then we ended up having to add 2500
[642]
because it does not have a pool so we
[644]
want to try to make comparable number
[646]
one
[647]
look like our property the subject
[649]
property
[650]
so the adjusted sale price for
[652]
comparable number one
[653]
is two thousand two hundred and forty
[655]
two thousand five hundred dollars
[657]
let's look at comparable number two it
[659]
started out with a
[661]
a a sales price an actual sales price of
[664]
260 000. we had to
[666]
minus 10 000 for that extra bedroom
[670]
remember i'm killing a dead horse here
[671]
but i want you to understand this
[674]
how do we make comparable number two
[676]
which is a four bedroom
[678]
look like our subject property which is
[681]
a three bedroom
[682]
the only way to do that is adjust the
[686]
value
[686]
so we're gonna deduct that ten thousand
[689]
dollars we've a
[690]
deducted five thousand for the extra uh
[693]
garage space
[695]
that gives this property comparable
[697]
number two
[698]
an adjusted sale price of two hundred
[701]
and forty five thousand dollars
[703]
now let's take comp number three which
[706]
sold for
[706]
two hundred and seventy five thousand
[708]
dollars it has four bedrooms
[711]
ours has three so we adjusted it down
[714]
ten thousand dollars
[715]
it has a three-car garage the the
[718]
subject property only has a two-car
[720]
garage so the appraiser adjusted it down
[722]
five thousand dollars for that category
[725]
and it's on an above average lot ours
[728]
is just or the subject property is just
[730]
average
[731]
so the oppress the appraiser adjusted it
[734]
down another
[734]
five thousand dollars which gave us an
[737]
adjusted sale price
[739]
of 255 000
[743]
right so where do we go from here again
[746]
do we just
[747]
add those three together and divide it
[749]
by three
[751]
well no that's not the correct way to do
[753]
it what the appraiser is going to do to
[754]
determine the value because the next
[756]
question is
[757]
all right we've done our adjustments and
[758]
our calculations
[760]
what is the value what's the appraised
[763]
value of our subject property that we're
[765]
trying to determine the value on
[768]
so what the appraiser should do is
[772]
find out which comparable
[776]
is most similar to ours
[779]
typically that's done by which
[781]
comparable
[782]
has the least adjustments for the
[785]
features
[786]
and in our case i think comparable
[788]
number one does
[789]
it only has one adjustment and that is
[792]
for the pool
[793]
and that's it so um
[797]
the appraiser in my opinion is going to
[799]
probably determine the value or make a
[801]
valuation for the subject property
[803]
somewhere between
[804]
242 500 and 245
[808]
000. it's unlikely that if they're going
[810]
to use comparable number three or at
[812]
least
[813]
value it up around the range of
[815]
comparable number three because again
[817]
we're trying to find out which
[818]
comparable
[819]
or which comparables are the most
[822]
like our subject property and that's
[825]
what appraisers do and remember
[827]
it is an opinion of value it's a
[829]
professional opinion of value
[832]
and so i may come up with as an
[834]
appraiser i may come up
[836]
with a valuation or i may determine the
[838]
valuation of the subject property is 242
[841]
500 another appraiser may say 245
[844]
another appraiser may 2 may say 243 but
[849]
my guess is all the appraised values are
[851]
going to be
[852]
within that that price range
[856]
that my friends is the sales comparison
[858]
approach to value
[860]
very important that maybe you watch this
[862]
a couple more times so you
[863]
understand how we came to the the uh
[867]
the valuations and how we made the
[869]
adjustments to the comparables
[871]
it's key to remember we make the the
[874]
changes to the comparables not the
[877]
subject property
[878]
so all right if you're going to continue
[881]
studying check out this video which is
[883]
going to be my next video which is the
