There are many websites like Zillow and Redfin that claim to have the most accurate home valuations available online. Maybe they are, maybe not. Either way, the automated valuations should also be taken with a grain of salt. These sites provide computer generated values that are calculated from public records and user-submitted data online. No human has walked the property or area and the “computers” don’t know the neighborhoods intimately. While these Automated Valuation Models (AVM’s) can be useful as a reference or starting point, they can also cause confusion for the consumer. Zillow’s own CEO, Spencer Rascoff’s home sold for 40% less than it’s “Zestimate”. About 20% of the time, Zestimate’s miss sale prices by more than 20%.
