Comparable Property Game

Appraisers analyze thousands of data points to form a professional opinion of value, but it all starts with selecting the right comparable sales. This simplified quiz offers a peek into the basic principles appraisers follow when choosing comps.

You’ll review four Subject Properties, each with four potential comparables. For each Subject Property, pick up to three comps that best match in terms of Stories, Gross Living Area (GLA), Style, and Condition. After each round, you’ll see which choices align with appraisal best practices — and why.
