Is a Zillow Zestimate Accurate?
If you have gone online to different websites to seek the value of your home, you have probably found differing results. The Zillow Zestimate is likely part of your search. While highly touted, the Zillow estimate is only as accurate as the input received by the sources of information that it utilizes, usually public records and prior sales.
The Zillow values do not incorporate value-added features, such as a home's condition, location, upgrades and those things that affect a buyer's emotions. Nor are conditions of sale considered in the final Zillow Zestimate. Final sales prices are impacted by buyer and seller concessions, such as closing cost concessions and negotiated repairs. Zillow sources are not privy to these important details.
