You mean an algorithm created in San Francisco monitored in India didn’t hit the mark on your home is Bawcomville?

In general, Zillow is pretty terrible and slow to update. When I was looking for a house Zillow was always at least a week behind updating houses that were under contract, etc.

Lol, duh….to my knowledge Zillow doesn’t monitor the mls it pulls the information from property appraisers on closings. The property appraisers take a month or more often to update. So of course Zillow is behind.
Zillow simply uses comparable sales with an algorithm to compute your value. It is what it is, expecting it to be some on site perfect realtor is absurd. Use the information for what it is.

I used 3 different sites to estimate value on a rental property about 3 years ago.
None of them were accurate, and they went from slightly low to very high, so even the average of their values wasn’t accurate.
Not a good estimation tool.

I live in a city that was carved out of another city. There are 2 listings for our house, one in the old city and one in the current. There is a $90,000 variance between the 2 listings for the same house.
Same address. Same house. Same comps. Same zip code. Literally the only thing that is different is the city name... and they have even updated that now so the same city name resolves on both pages! lol

It's a sellers market at the moment.

Looking at Zillow and Redfin for my house, I see that one of them gives me credit for a bedroom that I don't have and the other is shortchanging me by about 400 square feet.
The numbers look pretty good, though. They're up about $35,000 from what I paid in September. I think that reflects market conditions pretty well.

Sometimes the underlying data is wildly inaccurate.
I saw a property once where they had the closing date off by three weeks and the sale price off by $400,000. I looked at it with a realtor who accessed the MLS and confirmed it was the same property.

Okay. Not literally. Zillow had it listed at $160,000. Sold it for $267,000. So sold it for $107,000 more. My bad.

If I could sell my house for $100k over their estimated price I would sell it today!
