Home Buying Advice - Comparable Sales in The Public Records

Usually information on the last sales price for a home is available in public records, but in Utah we are a non-disclosure state and so this information is not available. You can lookup the taxable valuation for a home but this is often way out of date, especially for older homes. The best way of getting comparable sales is to ask your Realtor to perform a CMA or Comparable Sales Analysis. Your Realtor has access to the MLS where home sales are recorded and so they can lookup the last sale price for the home you are interested in and also look to recent sales of similar homes in the area to give you some idea of a valuation.
