Most real estate agents who fail have one thing in common: they don’t control their emotions. It’s easy to get so invested in making the deal happen that you let your emotions take the wheel. But that’s exactly what you don’t want to do. Because your emotions offer absolutely no value to getting the deal done.

Comparative Market Analysis’ (CMAs) have been around for years. Every agent is familiar with the concept. You have a seller lead, or past client, who is thinking about selling their home, and you compile a list of recent comparable home sales in the nearby geographic area. Some CMA tools will allow you to “weigh” some of the comps higher than others, based on things like square footage, bed/bath count, and interior finishes. Others simply provide a blended average of the nearby sales and spit out a price recommendation. Either way is fine, but I’m going to share one particular twist on the traditional CMA that has really helped me grow my business.
