Are Zillow Home Value Estimates Accurate?

Understanding your home value accurately is critical when planning to sell your home. Rob Jensen, Owner of Rob Jansen Company explains to the CoachYu Show why it’s a mistake to use Zillow to price your home.

He points out that Zillow uses square footage and recent sales prices to calculate a value for your property, but it doesn’t take into account the unique features of your home, such as recent renovations, interior details like pocket doors or a wine cellar, or exterior features like views, water features, or landscaping.

According to Jensen, Zillow may know a few things, but it doesn’t know what makes your home special. Therefore, relying solely on online estimates may not provide an accurate reflection of your home value.
