What you receive

Karen prepares every valuation by hand. No algorithm, no automated estimate. Within two business days, you receive:

  • A defensible price range. Grounded in current comparable sales in your specific community, with each comparable annotated for relevance.
  • A pricing strategy recommendation. Where in the range to position the listing, given current market temperature, the season, and your timeline.
  • A net-proceeds estimate. What is likely to remain after commission, transfer tax, title charges, and a reserve for negotiated repair credits.
  • A clear-eyed read on the market. Days on market trends, current absorption, and what to expect from buyer activity over the next ninety days.
  • Recommended next steps, only if you want them. If the timing is not right, the analysis stands on its own.

Why a CMA prepared personally matters

Algorithmic estimates (including the most popular consumer-facing tools) rely on broad regional data and miss the details that determine real-world price. Karen's analysis is built from the MLS data professionals see, her direct knowledge of your community's micro-market, and a careful read of the condition and presentation of your particular home. As a designated Pricing Strategy Advisor (P.S.A.), this is the discipline she trained for.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a comparative market analysis (CMA)?
A CMA is a structured assessment of what your home is likely to sell for in the current market. Karen prepares the analysis personally by reviewing recent comparable sales, active competition, absorption rates in your specific community, and the particular features and condition of your home. The result is a defensible price range, a recommended pricing strategy, and a clear net-proceeds estimate.
How is this different from a Zillow Zestimate?
Algorithmic valuations rely on broad regional data and miss the details that determine real-world price: condition, recent comparable sales that have not yet been reflected in public datasets, micro-market absorption, school-district nuances, and the particular dynamics of your street. Karen's analysis is built by hand from current MLS data and her direct knowledge of your community.
How long does it take to receive the valuation?
Typical turnaround is two business days from the time the form is submitted. For more complex properties, Karen will request a brief follow-up call to clarify details before finalizing the analysis.
Is there any obligation to list with Karen after the valuation?
None. The CMA is complimentary and information-only. If you decide the timing is not right, or you choose to list with another agent, that is your prerogative without question. Many clients request a CMA twelve to twenty-four months before any move, simply to understand where they stand.
What information do I need to provide?
At minimum, the property address. Additional detail on bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, recent improvements, and your timeline lets Karen prepare a more accurate analysis on the first pass. Anything else relevant to the property's condition or your situation is welcome.
Does the valuation include a net-proceeds estimate?
Yes. Karen will model typical seller costs (real estate commission, Pennsylvania transfer tax at 2% of sale price, title charges, and a reserve for negotiated repair credits) so you see what is likely to remain after closing.
