GLA adjustment

reflect the market’s behavior of paying less per unit with increases in size. GLA adjustments may be obtained by paired sales analysis or by graphing the cost per square foot against the size of the house.

When using paired sales analysis it is necessary to perform analysis for each variation in GLA between the subject and comparables. Graphing permits a broader application of calculating any variation in GLA in that price and quality range of housing.
