*SEARCHING ON COMPS-LITE
How do I find comparable sales data ?
In order to find comparable sales data you must do what is referred to as a ‘radius search’. You must first do an assessment search for the subject property that you wish to find comparable sales for. Once you have the assessment listed on your screen, select that property so it is highlighted. Then at the bottom of your screen, click on the button labeled RADIUS (GET SALES). You can then enter in a radius search distance (in miles), as well as a date and price range. You can also change the property class for the search if you need to. This is the most efficient way to find comparable sales data.

To print sales data records, they must be tagged. To tag a record, you must check off the box to the left of the record.
