Retrospective Appraisal in San Rafael

A retrospective appraisal develops value for a date that has already passed using market conditions and buyer behavior existing on that effective date.

San Rafael Is Not One Comparable Market

Terra Linda, Dominican, Gerstle Park, Sun Valley, Peacock Gap, waterfront neighborhoods, and attached-housing areas can represent different buyer alternatives.

Distance Alone Can Be Misleading

A geographically close sale may differ materially in development era, property type, terrain, views, site utility, or neighborhood character.

Reconstruct the Historical Buyer

The analysis should identify which neighborhoods and property types buyers would actually have considered competitive on the effective date.
