Whether you need to add a comp, clear one out, or just rearrange them,
WinTOTAL provides all the tools you need to manage your comps from the side-by-side comps view.
Moving Comps
As you continue to work on your report, you may decide that you need to
rearrange the order of comps in your report, hide a few comps from view so that
you can make that comp flush with the subject, or pull hidden comps back into
view. There are several ways you can reorganize your comps:
- Swapping Comps – If you need to swap the order of two
comps in your report, click the Move link in the top of
either comp column. Then, choose Swap With and select
the comp column where you want to move the current comp.
- Manually Reordering Comps – If you need to fully reorder
your comps, click the Move link at the top of any comp column
and then choose Reorder Comps. In the screen that
appears, use the up and down arrows to reorder the comps list to fit your
needs. Then, click OK to apply your
changes.
- Automatically Reordering Comps – If you need to order
your comps by their similarity to the subject property, click Move
Best Comps Closest at the top of the Subject
column. WinTOTAL evaluates the adjustments you’ve made to your comps and
reorders them so that those with the smallest adjustment percentage are
closest to the subject.
- Hiding Comps – If you’re comfortable with the order of
comps in your report, but you want to hide some of the comps from the
side-by-side view so that you can place certain comps flush with each, click
Hide at the top of each comp you want to hide from view. The comps
disappear from view but remain in your report. This can help you
organize your comps so that they’re flush with the subject to make adjustments
easier but without reordering the comps in your report.
- Restoring Hidden Comps – If you’ve hidden some of your
comps from view so that you can align other comps to ease the adjustment
process, you may need to restore them to view at some point. To do so,
just click Show Desired Comps in the Subject
column and either click Show All OR click Show
Specific, mark the comps you want to see, and click
OK.
