Getting Reliable Comps and ARV – Yours at a Snap of a Finger!
Step 1: Enter the correct address for subject property in the Info Tab!
Step 2: Click on 'Comparables' or 'Calculate ARV' to Generate Instant Comparable Sales!
Both options will lead you to the same screen, which is where up to 25 of the best available comparable sales for your subject property will be displayed. (See screenshot below)
Step 3: 25 Best Comparable Sales Displayed Instantly!
Step 3a: All Your Comps on a Map!
Step 4: Sort and Filter Your Comps to Narrow Down to the most Relevant!
New easy-to-use filters allow you to narrow down your comps as tightly as you want. You can sort the entire comparable sales data set by any of the column headings to narrow down only the most relevant comps. As you start clicking the “checkboxes” to the right of each comp, the average stats and projected ARV will change at the top to calculate based on only the comps you've selected!
The After-Repair-Calculator Calculator will only display a Projected ARV if you have entered a square ft figure for the subject property.
Step 5: Generate Reports
Though we don't recommend you include this report in your formal presentations. Instead, see the next step!

NOTE ON NON-DISCLOSURE STATES:
Rehab Valuator now sources Comparable Sales from Public Records nationwide
Unfortunately there is a handful of states where disclosure of sales price is not required and is not a matter of public record. In these “non-disclosure” states, the only truly reliable source for comparable sales will be the local MLS service. Data you can obtain inside Rehab Valuator will be spotty at best.
The following states are non-disclosure states:
Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming
So if you're doing business in one of these states, there are a few things to try:
-
- Search some online sites like Zillow and Realtor manually. More and more, real estate agents that have agreements with Zillow will upload sales data, even in non-disclosure states
- Your best bet will be to use a local real estate agent and get comps data from them. You can then manually upload your comps into the Rehab Valuator presentations and use them along with the rest of your marketing

Daniil those tools are very helpful thank you so much
Hi Paul, that’s great diligence. The more you know about a property, the more you can feel comfortable with your valuation.
After viewing the first video about comps, the idea of viewing the property addresses on Google, i thought that’d be a good idea to see how closely the property in question looked liked any of the comp’s. Also, having access to view a Grant Deed or Deed of Trust to see if the property description had the same tract name. That may be good to know. If a property is developed by the same developer then you would feel better knowing you have a real good comp,
Taryn, these are good questions. Pulling comps when there are fewer sales to pull from and when differences like large land parcels do make it tough. Sometimes, you need to expand your distance filters (if possible) or even things like property square footage or room counts to get more data. Then you make some adjustments to get to the right value. This is obviously tougher than when you have 25 houses to choose from that are nearly identical and close by. Tax data sometimes falls in line with value but can be lower or higher in a lot of cases, too.
I’ll reach out to you directly and privately to see if we can help a little bit more.
How do you comp a rural area? I have a lead where the house was built in 2003 on 20 acres of land, but when I run the comps, there is only one house, 5 miles away, that is somewhat comparable. All of the other homes are brand new.
Also, the tax assessor site has a value of $304k for the land & house, but the owner is asking for $400k. I’m having a hard time doing comps for this house. Any suggestions on how I should handle this?
Hi Nova, Thanks for kind comments! Happy to know they were helpful.
I found these tutorials to be very helpful. Thank you!
Hi Stephen, in an ideal world the comps will be similar in style, age, size, condition (or future condition of course), etc. This can prove hard sometimes, but if you compare cape cods to cape cods, let’s say, that’s great.

Hello there,
This information is fantastic….maybe I missed this part, but what size of a project does your project management training works for? Is it only for housing development?
Thank you…?
