Part of the KashHomeBuyers Real Estate Glossary
Comparable sales, or 'comps,' are recently sold properties that are similar to the subject property in location, size, age, condition, and features. Appraisers and real estate agents use comps to estimate a home's current market value. For cash buyers like KashHomeBuyers, comps determine the After-Repair Value (ARV) — what the home will be worth after we repair it. We pull comps from the MLS and county records, filtering for properties within a 0.5-1 mile radius, sold within the last 90 days, and within 15-20% of the subject property's square footage. We show you the comps we use and explain how we arrived at our offer. This transparency is rare in the cash buyer industry — most won't show their math.
When you sell to KashHomeBuyers, understanding Comparable Sales (Comps) helps you evaluate our offer and know exactly what to expect at closing. We explain every aspect of our offer calculation — including how Comparable affects your net proceeds — with full transparency and no pressure.
