When comparing two properties, how should a price adjustment be made based on a bedroom difference?

When comparing two properties, a price adjustment based on a bedroom difference should be made as a minus adjustment to the comparable property. This is because the comparable property is being evaluated against the subject property, which means if the subject has more bedrooms than the comparable, the value of the comparable needs to be decreased to account for the additional bedrooms of the subject property.

For instance, if the subject property has three bedrooms and the comparable has two bedrooms, then the comparable is considered less desirable due to fewer bedrooms. Thus, to accurately reflect the market value difference, the price of the comparable would be adjusted downward. This practice ensures a fair comparison based on the features that contribute to the overall market value of the properties in question.
