what area? why not work with an agent, it cost you nothing and their job is to get you comps.

That zillow site was about $100k off the estimate of my house. Not sure how fruitful that would be, although it claims to know the price at which my neighbors house was bought for. (I am not sure if it is correct, but it seemed high)
FYI: The zestimates seem to be based on how much taxes were paid, and thus loosely based on the assessments. The guy down the street with a much larger house is paying less property taxes (according to zillow) than I, and thus the website thinks my house is worth more.

Northshore. I have a comp report from two months ago, but it is missing a few more recent sales. I might just try to look those up individually.
quote:
why not work with an agent
Not really interested in paying someone 3% to find a house in an area that I know better than most agents. I also have some friends who are agents and willing to offer some free advice. However, I might consider using an agent if I look into any complicated transactions.
quote:
it cost you nothing
I am hoping to parlay the lack of a buyer's agent fee into a lower purchase price. And in that sense, an agent does cost something.
