How do I get the comparables changed?

I have a home that is on a golf course and has a Puget Sound view. My house is being compared against homes that have neither. How do I get the compariables changed?

To answer your question, You cannot change sales comparables. The only way sales comparables show up is when a home sells. If there are homes that are similar to yours in number of bedrooms, baths and roughly the same square footage, then they will all count as sales comparables. However, a good real estate agent or appraiser with experience will account for your golf course frontage and view of Puget Sound and adjust the suggested sales price to reflect your added amenities. The key here is to get the sound advice from a a few EXPERIENCED agents. What your home is worth is not determined by the agent, it is determined by the market. The agent should be telling you what price your home will sell for in the current market, not what its worth. In your mind, it could be worth 5 million dollars, but if the market does not support that price, then it will never sell at that price. Hope this helps.
