its a cool tool, but its not that accurate. I wouldn't use it for anything more than fun curiousity.

Re: zillow.com - saw this on news 12
I agree...Zillow takes an average of the home listings in your area/block and then spits you out a mid range assessment...
So say the house two doors down sold for 1.5 million, and the house three houses down (on the other side) sold for like 775,000 - it would give you the mid range between those figures as a value for your home. There was a very prominent case lately where a homeowner got screwed out of several thousands of dollars because he trusted in the numbers off Zillow.

Re: zillow.com - saw this on news 12
They show our house for about 50K less than we bought it for. Other houses in the neighbor hood are showed at lower also.
When I plug in the amount of bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage and property size it says my house value is $1,676,054... I WISH!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's more than triple it's current value.
