Abstract
This paper demonstrates how results of the sales comparison approach, developed suing mass appraisal technique, can be explained in a single-property appraisal format using off-the-shelf software. Comparable sales are automatically selected and line item dollar adjustments for differences between the comparables and the subject are displayed. Value indicants are revealed from each comparable, and a final value is correlated. The results serve as a check against the value developed via the mass appraisal model and as a means of explanation to the public.
