I'm talking about comparables in the sense of 'actual sales.'  To me, the
best determinant of FMV is actual arm's length sales of comparable homes.
Of course, I know what my 'feel' for the house is - but I want to see what
others are paying for similar homes in the area to get an idea for what the
market is.
