Selling Guide · Peoria & Central Illinois

What is your home actually worth today?

A comparative market analysis, or CMA, is the pricing backbone of a smart listing: a look at active listings, pending sales, and closed sales in your area to estimate what buyers will actually pay for your home. It is not a guess and it is not the tax assessment; it is market evidence. I build a CMA for every seller I work with, and I will prepare one for you before we talk about listing.

Key points

What this looks like in practice.

Closed comparables

Recent sales of similar homes set the realistic price range for your property.

Active and pending listings

What buyers are choosing from right now shapes how your home positions against the competition.

Condition and details

Updates, lot, layout, and maintenance history move the comparison by real dollars in both directions.

A pricing strategy, not a number

The CMA becomes a list price designed to generate traffic and offers, not just a figure pulled from a portal.
