Assumptions, Limiting Conditions and Disclaimer

This report is not an appraisal and does not contain an opinion of value.

This document is a compilation and analysis of public record data and closed sales data. It is not an appraisal, an appraisal report, an appraisal review, a restricted appraisal report, a broker price opinion, or a comparative market analysis, and it must not be represented or relied upon as any of those. No opinion of market value has been developed and none is expressed or implied. The preparer has not been engaged to develop one, and no such engagement should be inferred from this document.

The price range shown is an arithmetic observation derived directly from unadjusted closed sale prices reported by the multiple listing service. It describes what the sales data shows. It is not a value conclusion, and it must not be used as one for any lending, tax, legal, estate, insurance, settlement, or transactional purpose.

The interactive estimator in Section 4 is a tool for the reader. Any figure it produces is the reader’s own arithmetic on raw sales data, chosen by the reader. It is not an appraisal, not the preparer’s estimate, and not a value conclusion.

No inspection of the subject property has been performed. Its condition, quality, and any deferred maintenance, permitting issue, or defect are unknown to the preparer and are not reflected in this analysis. Public record data, including living area, site area, year built and room count, is presented as reported by the county assessor and has not been independently verified. Comparable sale prices, concessions, financing terms and arm’s-length status have not been verified with a party to any transaction. No quantitative or qualitative adjustments have been developed or applied to the comparable sales.

This report is prepared for the exclusive use of the client named on this page. No other party may rely upon it. It may not be reproduced or distributed except in its entirety, including this disclaimer. Development of a credible opinion of market value would require completion of a full appraisal assignment consistent with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.

What This Report Is — and What It Is Not

WHAT YOU ARE GETTINGWHAT THIS IS NOT
  • The public record for your property, pulled directly from county assessor data
  • Every closed sale in your market screened against your property and sorted into five tiers of closeness — distance, recency, size, site and age
  • The median sale price and median price per square foot for each tier
  • An estimator you can move yourself to place your own home inside the raw sales data
  • Current market conditions — pricing, absorption and marketing time
  • An honest read on whether the data would support a credible appraisal
  • Not an appraisal or an appraisal report
  • Not an appraiser’s opinion of value
  • Not a broker price opinion or a comparative market analysis
  • Not usable for a mortgage, an estate tax return, a court filing, or any matter requiring a signed appraisal
  • No adjustments have been applied to the comparable sales
  • No inspection of your property has been performed and the sales data has not been independently verified

This is a sample GroundWork Report, published so you can see exactly what the product contains before you order one. It is built from a real assignment and every figure in it is real — the market statistics, the comparable sales, the tier medians and the complexity read are all genuine output. Only the identifying details have been removed: the client, the street address, the parcel number and the ownership record. This report looks backward, not forward. Every sale, every listing and every market figure in it is anchored to August 15, 2022 — the retrospective effective date for this property — and nothing that happened after that date has been allowed to influence the analysis. The purpose is to lay out the market evidence that actually existed around your property on that date, in full, before anyone commits to a signed appraisal. Where the evidence is strong you will see that plainly. Where it is thin or where your property differs from the sales, you will see that too, along with what a full appraisal would have to do about it.

1. Your Property — Public Record

The subject of this sample is a two-story single-family home built in 1977 in the Canyon Crest area of Riverside. Its street address, parcel number and ownership have been withheld because this is a demonstration copy; every other fact below is real and unaltered. It is reported by the county assessor at 2,050 square feet of living area with four bedrooms, two full baths and a half bath, central heat and air, one fireplace, an in-ground pool and a 660-square-foot three-car garage. What sets it apart from almost everything around it is the site: 25,265 square feet, roughly 0.58 of an acre, against a median of about 9,600 square feet for homes that sold in this ZIP code in the year before the effective date. Close to nine out of ten sales in that year sat on a smaller lot than yours. The pool and the large, treed rear yard are physical features that the sales data below does not price separately, and that gap matters — see Section 4. The property has no MLS listing history; the last recorded transfer was a nominal 2003 trustee's deed into the family trust, so there is no prior arm's-length sale of this house to reason from. All physical data here comes from county assessor records rather than from an inspection.

What these figures are — and are not

The amounts above are provided by the county assessor and exist for one purpose: calculating the property tax bill. They are not the home’s value and should never be read as one. Under California’s Proposition 13, assessed value is generally set at the price paid when the property last changed hands and can rise by no more than 2% per year — so the longer ago a home was purchased, the further its assessed value falls below the prices similar homes actually sell for.

An appraised value is a different thing entirely: a licensed appraiser’s supported conclusion about one specific property as of one specific date, developed by examining the property, verifying comparable sales, and adjusting those sales for their differences. The assessor does none of that. This report contains neither figure — the assessor’s numbers are reproduced here only for completeness, and no appraised value has been developed.

2. Market Conditions

Everything in this section describes the Riverside 92506 single-family market as it stood on August 15, 2022, and nothing after that date has been allowed into it. The underlying dataset is every Riverside single-family listing record available for the period — 7,513 records, of which 4,642 had closed on or before the effective date. Your own ZIP code, 92506, is used as the market area because it is deep enough to stand on its own: 896 closed sales on or before the effective date, 622 of them in the trailing twelve months.

The headline is that August 2022 sits almost exactly on an inflection point, and that is the single most important thing to carry into every number in this report. Through 2021 and the first months of 2022 this market appreciated hard. Measured over the trailing twelve months into the effective date, median sale price rose 13.4 percent — from $595,000 to $675,000 — and median price per square foot rose 18.3 percent, from $327.61 to $387.43.

Then it stopped. Price per square foot is the more reliable measure here, because raw median price also moves with whichever homes happened to sell in a given month. Fitted as a straight line, the trailing six months of median price per square foot were still climbing at 13.3 percent. The trailing three months — May through August 2022 — were essentially flat at minus 0.5 percent. The final month-over-month reading, July into August 2022, was down 3.2 percent, from a local peak of $403.31 per square foot to $390.44. Median days on market lengthened over the same stretch, from a low of about 6.5 days in the May window to 11 days in the August window. That is the mid-2022 mortgage-rate shock arriving.

None of this made it a buyer's market. On the effective date homes were still selling at roughly 101 percent of asking price, with about 2.3 months of inventory and a median of ten days to go under contract — fast by any normal standard. What changed was the direction of travel: the market had gone from accelerating to flat, and it was no longer tightening further.

The practical consequence for the sales below is direct. A home that closed in early 2022, or in 2021, transacted in a materially stronger market than a home that closed in August 2022. No sale figure anywhere in this report has been adjusted for that difference. When you compare a March sale against an August sale, part of the gap you are seeing is the calendar rather than the house.

What the market data means

As of August 15, 2022 the 92506 single-family market had moved out of a period of strong, broad appreciation and into a flat-to-slightly-softening one in the weeks immediately before the effective date, while remaining seller-favorable on every other measure. This is a description of the trend at that date. It is not a forecast of what came afterward, and this report makes no statement about what happened to this market after August 15, 2022.

One methodology note, stated plainly because it affects a figure above: the months-of-inventory reading of 2.3 is calculated from the pace of closed sales rather than from a snapshot of active listings, because the underlying export records only listings that reached a final status. For the same reason the new-listing count for the final quarter before the effective date is understated. The direction both figures point — cooling listing volume, lengthening marketing time — is reliable; the precise level of the inventory figure is an approximation.

3. Comparable Sales — the Five Tiers

Comparable sales are sorted into five tiers. Tier 1 is the strictest — closest to you, most recent, most like your home. Each tier after it relaxes one thing at a time, so the tiers read as widening circles of evidence around your property. Every window is measured back from August 15, 2022.

The tiers are cumulative. Each tier is a superset of the one above it. A sale that qualifies for Tier 1 is counted again in Tiers 2 through 5, so the medians widen and steady as the tiers loosen.

A sale qualifies on time if it closed inside the window or went into escrow inside it. Properties still in escrow are counted separately and are never folded into a median - no price has been paid yet.

“In escrow” counts properties that went under contract inside the tier’s window and had not closed. No price has been paid on them yet, so they are never folded into a median. The right-hand column is simple multiplication — the tier’s median price per square foot times your living area — and it is not an opinion of what your home would sell for.

Tiers 2 through 5 start collapsed. Click any tier heading above to open or close its list of sales. Every sale is still counted in its tier’s medians whether or not the list is open, and a printed or saved PDF copy of this report always contains all of them.

A sale listed under Tier 1 also counts toward the Tier 2, 3, 4 and 5 medians. Percentages beneath each figure are the difference from your property. Distance is straight-line, not driving distance. $/SF is sale price divided by living area, before any seller concessions are deducted.

Properties offered for sale as of August 15, 2022

These homes were on the market — not sold — on the effective date, and they passed the same screens as the sales. A seller can ask any number they like, so treat these as an indication of the ceiling sellers were testing, not as evidence of value. No figure below enters any median or range in this report.

“What happened next” is information that did not exist on the effective date and is shown only so you can see how the market answered each asking price.

Place your own home inside — or outside — this data

The table shows what each home sold for, but not what it looked like. Most of these addresses have recent photos and descriptions on Redfin or Zillow — look a few of them up, especially the Tier 1 sales, and compare their kitchens, baths, flooring and overall finish to your own home. If your home shows better than most of them, it belongs toward the top of the data; if it is more dated, toward the bottom; and if it is in materially different condition than all of them — a full remodel, or significant deferred maintenance — it may sit outside the data entirely. That comparison takes twenty minutes, and it is the single most useful thing you can add to this report on your own. The estimator in Section 4 is built for exactly that judgement.

The Tier 1 sales, explained

1500 block, Ransom Road · 0.26 miles N — 2,096 SF on 16,988 SF, built 1964, sold 08/10/2022 for $725,000 ($346/SF). The closest match in the set on size and timing — 2,096 square feet against your 2,050, a quarter mile north, closed August 10, 2022, five days before the effective date. Single-story, built 1964, on a 16,988-square-foot lot with a built-in pool and RV parking. At $725,000 it produced $345.90 per square foot. Its lot is about a third smaller than yours.

5900 block, Windemere Way · 0.29 miles NNW — 2,096 SF on 20,038 SF, built 1964, sold 08/22/2022 for $700,000 ($334/SF). Also 2,096 square feet, three-tenths of a mile north-northwest, on 20,038 square feet — the second-largest site in this tier and the nearest to yours in that respect. Single-story, built 1964, with a city-lights, hills and mountain view your property does not have. It went into escrow July 7, 2022, five weeks before the effective date, and closed August 22 at $700,000, or $333.97 per square foot. It qualifies on the escrow date, not the closing date; the price was agreed before August 15.

6400 block, Barranca Drive · 0.34 miles SW — 2,219 SF on 15,246 SF, built 1987, sold 06/17/2022 for $730,000 ($329/SF). The most recently built home in the tier, 1987, and the only other two-story — 2,219 square feet on 15,246 square feet, a third of a mile southwest, with a three-car garage like yours. Closed June 17, 2022 at $730,000, or $328.98 per square foot. Being ten years newer than your 1977 construction, it carries an age advantage that has not been adjusted out.

2000 block, Thistle Court · 0.28 miles W — 1,878 SF on 24,829 SF, built 1966, sold 09/21/2022 for $657,500 ($350/SF). The most useful sale in the set for your site, at 24,829 square feet — within two percent of your lot — on a cul-de-sac a quarter mile west. Two stories, built 1966, but smaller at 1,878 square feet and sold as a probate listing after 41 days on market, considerably longer than the tier median of 8. It went into escrow July 27, 2022 and closed September 21 at $657,500, which is the highest unit price in the tier at $350.11 per square foot. A probate sale and a long marketing period are both conditions of sale that an appraisal would examine and this report does not.

1500 block, Bellefontaine Drive · 0.16 miles N — 2,242 SF on 13,939 SF, built 1964, sold 05/31/2022 for $665,000 ($297/SF). The nearest sale of all, a sixth of a mile north, and the largest house in the tier at 2,242 square feet — but on the smallest lot, 13,939 square feet, roughly half of yours, with no garage reported. Single-story, built 1964, first time on the market in over 50 years, sold May 31, 2022 in four days at $665,000. At $296.61 per square foot it sets the bottom of the tier's unit-price range, and the absence of a garage is a real part of why.

4. What the Sales Data Indicates

Median sale price and median $/SF, tier by tier

A median is the midpoint: half the sales landed above it and half below. Nothing has been adjusted. The last column multiplies each tier’s median price per square foot by your 2,050 square feet of living area — it is arithmetic, not a conclusion.

Estimate your own property, tier by tier

This is your estimate, not an appraisal and not an appraiser’s estimate. The sliders below do one thing: they let you pick a point inside the raw range of prices per square foot that the sales in each tier actually produced, and multiply it by your living area. Where you place the slider is your own judgement about your own home. No adjustment for condition, quality, view, upgrades, pool, solar, garage or location has been made to any sale, and none is made here. The preparer of this report has expressed no opinion of value and the figures these sliders produce are not one.

Each slider is split into ten steps between the lowest and highest price per square foot recorded in that tier. The middle position is the tier’s median — a typical property for that set of sales. Move left toward the sales that brought the least per square foot: the most dated, the least appealing, the ones with the features buyers discount. Move right toward the sales that brought the most: remodelled, best condition, best position, best features.

Applying the unit-price range of the closest matches — $316 to $360 per square foot — to your 2,050 square feet of living area produces the following raw bracket.

$648,000 — $738,000

Raw, unadjusted range indicated by the closed sales · Most support between $675,000 and $720,000

This is a description of the sales data. It is NOT an opinion of value and must not be used as one.

Two different sets of five sales appear in this report and it helps to be clear about which is which. The bracket in the box above comes from the five sales that ranked closest to your property overall once distance, recency, size, site and age were weighed together; their unit prices ran from $316 to $360 per square foot. The Tier 1 table in Section 3 uses the published tier rules instead — half a mile, three months, same ZIP — and catches a slightly different five sales whose unit prices ran $296.61 to $350.11 and whose median was $333.97 per square foot, or $684,638 applied to your 2,050 square feet. Both are honest descriptions of the same market; neither is a conclusion. And neither has been adjusted for the two things that most distinguish your property from every sale listed: a site of 25,265 square feet, larger than four of the five Tier 1 lots, and an in-ground pool that only one of them reports. Those are unpriced in this analysis. So is condition — no one has been inside your home, and the interior condition of a house tenant-occupied for seven or more years is exactly the kind of question a raw sales screen cannot answer. Measuring what those differences contribute in dollars is the substance of an appraisal, and it can move a figure materially in either direction from the bracket above.

What is NOT adjusted for — read this before using any figure above

No adjustments of any kind are made to the comparable sales. That includes condition, quality, upgrades and renovation status — and it equally includes pools, solar electric systems, garages and covered parking, views, traffic noise, busy-road versus cul-de-sac locations, and lot utility. A sale with a pool or an owned solar system is shown at its full price next to one without; a remodelled home is shown next to a dated one; a home backing a highway is shown next to one on a quiet street. The tier screens are the only filtering performed. Features like these are neither excluded from the data nor adjusted for, and they are a large part of why the figures above are a spread rather than a single number — and why the sliders have a left end and a right end at all.

Why this is a range and not a number

An appraisal converts a range like this into a single supported figure by measuring what each difference between your property and each sale is supported at in your market — square footage, lot size, age, condition, view, garage, upgrades — and adjusting each sale accordingly. That work requires paired-sales analysis, verification of each transaction, and a determination of your property’s actual condition and quality. None of it has been performed here.

Expect an appraisal to differ — possibly by a lot. An appraised value may land well inside this range, at its edge, or outside it, and an appraisal may rely on different comparable properties than the ones shown here. Appraisal requirements — verification of each transaction, condition ratings, financing and concession analysis, and rules about distance and date of sale — can disqualify sales this screen includes and bring in sales it excludes. This report is the raw material an appraisal starts from, not a preview of its conclusion.

The data around this property is unusually good — with one clear gap. Out of 7,513 Riverside single-family records examined, 158 sales qualified against your property's size, site and age within the twelve months ending August 15, 2022, and 29 of those sat within a mile. That is ample quantity. The five Tier 1 sales are all in Canyon Crest, all within a third of a mile, and their unit prices cluster inside a tight spread. One line in the adequacy table on the next page reads “no qualifying sale in the subject's own neighborhood or subdivision” — that is a records artifact, not a finding: county records file the property under its tract number while the listing service files the surrounding sales under the area name, Canyon Crest, so an automated name match finds nothing even though the sales are on the streets around you. Bracketing is satisfied on every physical characteristic that matters: there are at least three qualifying sales above and below your property on living area, on site size and on age, so nothing here rests on evidence from only one direction. Twenty properties were also being offered for sale on or before the effective date, asking $291 to $399 per square foot — supporting evidence about the ceiling only, and deliberately excluded from every sale figure and from the range, because an asking price is what an owner wanted, not what a buyer paid. The gap is site size and the pool. Your 25,265-square-foot lot sits in the top 11 percent of what sold in this ZIP code that year, and only one Tier 1 sale — the Thistle Court sale, a probate listing — comes close to matching it. That is the single question a full appraisal would have to answer with paired-sales work rather than with a median.

Two of the Tier 1 sales closed after the effective date — and that is correct, not an error. the Windemere Way sale closed August 22, 2022 and the Thistle Court sale closed September 21, 2022, both after August 15. They belong here because a sale qualifies on time if it closed inside the window or went into escrow inside it, and both were in escrow before the effective date — July 7 and July 27 respectively. The price on each was agreed in the market that existed on August 15; only the paperwork finished later. No sale that went into escrow after the effective date appears anywhere in this report.

Nothing here has been time-adjusted, and in this particular window that matters more than usual. The Tier 1 sales span May 31 to September 21, 2022 — a stretch that runs from the tail of a strongly appreciating market into the flat-to-softening conditions that prevailed at the effective date. the Bellefontaine Drive sale closed May 31 at $296.61 per square foot; the Thistle Court sale went into escrow eight weeks later at $350.11. Some of that difference is the houses and some of it is the calendar, and this report does not separate the two. Widening to Tier 4 or Tier 5 pulls in sales from as far back as August 2021, when the market was materially cheaper, which is part of why the wider tiers show lower medians than Tier 2 and Tier 3 despite containing more evidence.

Assignment complexity: NON-COMPLEX

The sales data for this property is strong. A full appraisal on this property would be routine work.

  • 158 qualifying sales — ample quantity.
  • Tier 1 unit prices cluster tightly (14% spread).
  • 29 qualifying sales within the 1-mile primary radius.
  • No qualifying sale in the subject's own neighborhood or subdivision.

The sales evidence for this property as of August 15, 2022 is strong: ample quantity, a tight Tier 1 cluster, and bracketing supported on living area, site and age. A full appraisal on this property would be routine work rather than a research problem. The two items that would take real analysis are the site premium for a lot that is nearly three times the neighborhood median and the contribution of the pool, neither of which a raw median can price — and the interior condition, which cannot be settled without either an inspection or photographs.

This rating reflects the comparable sales data only. Characteristics of your own property — unusual zoning, an accessory dwelling, excess land, a partial ownership interest, deferred maintenance, or a retrospective effective date — can raise it further and would be identified during a full appraisal.

6. Your Next Step

If you decide to move forward with a full appraisal on this property, the $99 you paid for this analysis is credited in full against the fee. You pay only the difference.

If you orderWhat you getFull feeYour creditYou pay
Desktop AppraisalSigned USPAP report. Full comparable grid with adjustments, market conditions, property history, maps and photos. No site visit.$449– $99$350
Standard AppraisalEverything in the Desktop, plus an in-person interior and exterior inspection with condition assessment and photographs taken on site.$699– $99$600

A note if a mortgage brought you here. If you bought this report to see what an appraiser will look at for a home loan or refinance, it shows you exactly the kind of data involved — but a mortgage appraisal must be ordered by your lender through its own process, and the preparer of this report does not prepare mortgage appraisals. The $99 credit therefore cannot be applied to a mortgage appraisal. It applies only to the Desktop and Standard Appraisals above, which serve purposes such as estate and date-of-death matters, divorce, bankruptcy, Proposition 19 transfers, and pre-purchase or pre-sale decisions.

What changes when you order the full appraisal

  • Each comparable sale is adjusted for the ways it differs from your property, so the range above resolves to one supported figure.
  • Your property’s condition and quality are determined — from your photographs on a Desktop, or from an in-person inspection on a Standard.
  • Every sale is verified against public records and, where possible, a party to the transaction.
  • The report is signed, USPAP compliant, and can be relied upon by the IRS, a court, an attorney, an accountant, or a lender that accepts an independent appraisal.

This retrospective analysis describes market data; it does not conclude a value and it cannot be filed with a tax return, submitted to the IRS, or relied on in a court or settlement matter. A date-of-death matter requiring a supportable figure as of August 15, 2022 needs a signed appraisal, and the $99 paid for this report is credited in full toward one.
