Property Valuation

AReject it automatically as too old
BUse it with a time adjustment to reflect current market conditions✓ Correct
CUse it without adjustment if in the same neighborhood
DUse it only in the cost approach

Explanation

Older comparable sales can still be used, but the appraiser must apply a time adjustment to account for market appreciation or depreciation since the sale date.
