Comparables
Characteristics of an asset that are similar to those of another asset. Comparables are especially important in real estate when appraising the value of a property. For example, if an appraiser is attempting to determine the value of a house, he may use the comparables of other houses in the neighborhood, such as the number of bedrooms or the square footage, when making the determination.
