Value Analysis
Approach 1 — Cantabria $/SF
The three Cantabria sales averaged $396.71/sf. The highest ($411/sf) came from a smaller home with premium upgrades; the largest sold at $384/sf. Given the subject's mid-range size and original finishes, we position it at $385–$395/sf, suggesting $1,229,690–$1,261,630.
Approach 2 — Bracket Method
Subject brackets between Comp 3 ($1,152,500, no pool) and Comp 2 ($1,315,000, larger). Adding pool premium + size adjustment to Comp 3 yields ~$1,202K–$1,223K. Subtracting extra bed/size from Comp 2 yields ~$1,265K–$1,280K. Overlap zone: $1,200,000–$1,260,000.
Approach 3 — Sale Price Trend
Both Cantabria comps that sold at higher prices required significant reductions ($95K–$125K cuts). Cantabria buyers resist pricing above $1,250K–$1,300K even for upgraded, larger homes. The subject sits right at this resistance level.
The midpoint is approximately $1,230,000. This is where we believe the property would appraise and where a well-informed buyer should anchor negotiations.
