How long is a Comparative Market Analysis actually accurate — and when should you ask your REALTOR® to update it before making a real estate decision?On this episode of the Greater Victoria Real Estate Show (GVRES), we look at how quickly property values can change and why a Comparative Market Analysis, or CMA, is really a snapshot of the market at a specific point in time. Changes in recent sales, new listings, price reductions, interest rates, inventory and buyer demand can all affect what a home may be worth today.We also talk about one of the most important decisions a buyer or seller can make: how to find a great real estate agent. What should you look for in a REALTOR®? Does experience matter?
