Using Your Own Criteria

You won’t be charged property report credits when running a Comparables search from scratch, as opposed to running it from a report. This method is especially beneficial if you’re running low on your monthly reports quota. To evaluate your property this way:

1. Click “Comparables” at the top and select “Comparables” again.
2. Select your search type (condo/coop unit, building or land).
3. In the “Subject Property” box, type in the address or Parcel ID of the property you want to evaluate, and select the right one from the suggestions, as shown below: 
   
4. Select the area of your research by setting a radius (from one-quarter mile up to five miles), picking a location from the map (neighborhoods, ZIP codes or community districts), or entering a street name.
5. Click “Open Building Classes” to specify the building class:
   1. You can search for keywords or even building class codes, such as A4 for “City Residence One Family.”
   2. Select an entire building class.
   3. Expand the building class to see what subclasses are available.
