Example: An appraisal is to be made of a four-bedroom house. One comparable is similar in all salient characteristics, including total size, except that it has 3 bedrooms. This comparable sold for $100,000. The appraiser makes an adjustment of $1,000 to the com- parable to account for the difference of bedrooms. The adjusted sales price of the comparable is $101,000.
