Spanish term

testigo

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Real Estate
Hi I would appreciate your help with this term.

I initially though "witness", as it appears in other parts of the document, but I cannot relate it to this context.

Context is:
(After a table that compares the different properties with different variables. When it talks about peso it is referring to weighted percentage. In this case 6 plots of land -> Peso: 16.67%
"Se tiene en cuenta el peso de cada testigo, en función a su similitud al bien valorado"

Thanks :)

Sorry, forgot to add in this question that it is an appraisal report. Variables of these six properties are surface area, yield value and total value. I think it is a comparison to subsequently calculate the value attributable to land.

Robert We need the full context, please. What is this document? What are the properties? Why are they being compared?
Gallagy2 is right that "testigo" can mean "control", but I don't know whether this fits the context.

Stab based purely on trying to phrase in context, but is testigo being used like a synonym for partida here? Could be, I think, if they're taking it in the sense of "witness" as something like a declared statement?
But very difficult to tell for sure without seeing the table.
