Can I trust some Internet company to calculate the market value of my home in Blincoes_addn_to_country_club_hills?
Zillow is a billion-dollar website that provides computerized estimates that purport to figure the ideal price of each and every property in the United States. Zillow tries to reach this goal this feat by using a complicated logarithm which crossreferences factors which impact property values, but here's a typical story I have heard from home sellers in Northern Virginia:
Our home was recently appraised for 650K. Zillow estimates the value at 521K. The estimate makes us one of the lowest priced homes in the subdivision. We have all upgrades in our home and it is the largest of the homes that were originally built in this subdivision. It was appraised at 750K before 2009. Our home has a basement. Neighbors do not have basement on one side and you appraised higher. Really? -- James E. - Fort Hunt
If you search the Internet for the phrase "Can I trust Zillow?" or "Can I trust Z-Estimates" you'll discover many posts by upset homeowners and leery property purchasers who have discovered the hard way just out inaccurate Zillow's pricing can be. Many people in Blincoes_addn_to_country_club_hills claim that Zillow's valuations have a margin of error of about 20%. Even if we assume the margin of error is only 10%, in Northern Virginia that means a "z-estimate" is only within $50,000 of the actual sales value. If the margin of error is an unlikley 5% that means that a z-estimate is only within $25,000 of the asking price.
Yet Zillow still remains popular with some real estate shoppers. Home sellers and property shoppers should understand that there is not a single community in Blincoes_addn_to_country_club_hills where either a mortgage lender or tax collector uses Internet for tax assessment or appraisals. Our professional advice is to take estimates from any website with a grain of salt. Putting too much trust into a computer can cause a lot of unnecessary anxiety.
