Running a Comp Report

How to generate, preview, and download comp reports in Dealius.

Overview

Comp reports can be generated from the Lease or Sale Comps grid by selecting comps using the checkbox and clicking Run Comp Report. If any comp is marked with a star, it will always appear first in the report. A pop-up allows configuring report options, which vary by report type. Once configured, the report opens in preview mode in a new tab and can be downloaded as a PDF or Excel file.

Every comp report consists of three parts: a cover page, a map page, and body pages with comp content.

Cover Page

The cover page displays the following elements, several of which can be customized in the Run Comp Report pop-up or under Admin > System Settings > Comp Report Settings:

Element Description
Logo Dealius logo by default. Can be replaced under Comp Report Settings.
Report Name Specified during report generation.
Prepared For Company name entered during report generation.
Brokers Name, title, phone, email, and license (if enabled) for each selected broker. The Lead Broker is listed first.
Background Fill color and image configurable under Comp Report Settings. A different image can be set per property type category: Retail, Office, Industrial, Land, Multi-Family, and Uncategorized.
Footnote Customizable under Comp Report Settings.

 

    Map Page

    The map page contains a snapshot of the map with numbered pins for each comp in the report. Pin numbers correspond to comp order throughout the report. The page also includes:

    • Company logo (from Comp Report Settings)
    • Selected search criteria
    • Footnote
    • Prepared By (lead broker name)
    • Date and time the report was generated

    The search criteria section can be hidden by disabling the Display Search Criteria toggle in the Run Comp Report pop-up.

    Body Pages

    Content varies by report type. See the dedicated articles for each:

    • Summary Report
    • Detailed Comp Report
    • Brochure Report

    Steps to generate a comp report

    Step 1 — Select your comps

    1. Go to the Comps section from the main navigation
    2. Use the filters and search to narrow down the comps you want to include
    3. Check the checkbox next to each comp you want in the report
    4. If you want a specific comp to always appear first, mark it with a star (★)
    5. Click Run Comp Report at the top of the grid

            Step 2 — Run the report

            1. A configuration pop-up will appear with options that vary by report type:
              • Report Type — Select Summary.

                 

              • Report Name — Free text. Defaults to "Comp Report".

                 

              • Client — Free text. Displayed on the cover page under Prepared For.

                 

              • Lead Broker — Single-select dropdown of active brokers. Auto-populates with the current user's name if they are a broker. Can be changed to any other broker. If the current user is not a broker and no selection is made, the Lead Broker line is omitted from the report. The lead broker is always listed first (far left) on the cover page.

                 

              • Additional Brokers — Multi-select dropdown of active brokers. Empty by default; up to 3 can be selected. Listed on the cover page after the lead broker.

                 

              • Display Broker License — Toggle, disabled by default. When enabled, pulls the first non-expired license from each broker's profile and displays it under their email on the cover page.

                 

              • Sort By — Options vary by report type:

                • Sale Report: Sold Date/Close Date (default), Price per SF, Sale Price, Square Footage, Distance from Subject Property, Year Built, CAP Rate, Space Size, City
                • Lease Report: Execution Date (default), Commencement Date, Square Footage, Distance from Subject Property, Year Built, City

                Square Footage uses Space Available from the property info if no space is linked, or Space Available SF from the space if one is linked to the comp.

                 

              • Sort Order — Select Ascending or Descending.

            Confidential and NDA Comps in Reports

            The combination of the Confidential and NDA toggles on a deal controls whether comp data appears in generated comp reports:

            • Confidential + NDA = ON — the comp is excluded from all generated comp reports. No data is displayed. Regardless of user permissions. 
            • Confidential = ON, NDA = OFF — the comp is included in generated comp reports and its data is displayed normally. Confidential comps are only visible to Office Admins and brokers who are participants on the deal.
