Use the quick CMA report to find the average price per square foot to get a price range for your specific property.
For properties that are atypical (rural, lots of acreage, Put in additional criteria such as:
year built
square footage range
If you cannot find comps for your property
Take out things such as acreage and find a comp and then add/subtract it back in (if comp is superior=subtract, if comp is inferior=add)
Go back and change your criteria (adjust age range, acreage, etc.)
**Do not use new construction for comps unless the property is fairly new and there are other existing comps available.
If you have a lot of comps: look at more specific details to find the best ones: square footage, age, beds, baths, garage, etc.
