What’s covered in this Maryland Real Estate Property Valuation and Financial Analysis Questions?

This section of the Maryland practice test focuses on one of the most calculation-heavy and high-impact areas of the real estate licensing exam: Property Valuation and Financial Analysis. Representing approximately 14% of the test, this section evaluates how well you understand real estate value, how to estimate it using standard methods, and how to analyze a property’s financial performance.

Property value

These questions check your ability to define and distinguish between market value, assessed value, and appraised value. You’ll also apply key economic principles, like supply and demand, highest and best use, conformity, and contribution, to determine what affects a property's value in different market conditions.

Methods of estimating value

You’ll be tested on the three primary appraisal approaches:
  • Sales comparison approach: Identify comps, make price adjustments, and support market-based valuations
  • Cost approach: Calculate replacement/reproduction cost and subtract depreciation
  • Income approach: Use Gross Rent Multiplier (GRM) and Capitalization Rate (Cap Rate) to assess income-producing properties
These are often math-based and require a solid understanding of formulas and when each approach is appropriate.

Financial analysis

These questions focus on a property's investment performance. You’ll analyze financial metrics like:
  • Return on Investment (ROI)
  • Net Operating Income (NOI)
  • Depreciation schedules
  • Cash flow and rate of return
These questions simulate investor scenarios and test your ability to evaluate profitability, risk, and tax impacts based on property performance.
