Sales Comparison Approach - Economic Basis

Economic Basis

The sales comparison approach is based upon the principles of supply and demand, as well as upon the principle of substitution. Supply and demand indicates value through typical market behavior of both buyers and sellers. Substitution indicates that a purchaser would not purchase an improved property for any value higher than it could be replaced for on a site with equivalent utility, assuming no undue delays in construction.

Famous quotes containing the words economic and/or basis:

    Just as men must give up economic control when their wives share the responsibility for the family’s financial well-being, women must give up exclusive parental control when their husbands assume more responsibility for child care.
    Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)

    It was the custom
    For his rage against chaos
    To abate on the way to church,
    In regulations of his spirit.
    How good life is, on the basis of propriety,
    To be followed by a platter of capon!
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
