Introduction
Thinking of selling your home in Bastrop? One of the most important tools you’ll need is a CMA—or Comparative Market Analysis. But what exactly is it, and how does it help you get top dollar?
Let’s break it down in plain English.
What Is a CMA?
A CMA is a custom report created by a real estate professional that estimates your home’s current market value based on:
- Recent sales of similar homes
- Active listings in your area
- Expired/withdrawn listings
- Property condition and upgrades
Why Zillow Zestimates Aren’t Enough
Zestimates use automated data—but Bastrop neighborhoods are too diverse for algorithms to be accurate.
✅ A CMA uses real comps, current trends, and your home’s unique features.
