Today I’m discussing Zillow’s home valuations, which are called Zestimates. Zillow uses three factors to come up with your house’s value: location, square footage, and what the sales in your neighborhood have been. They don’t take into consideration the particular features of your house or any improvements that you’ve made. Therefore, it’s in your best interest to have a Realtor come take a look at your property, and only use Zestimates as a loose guideline. A real estate agent will have the best advice about where to place your home on the market. They can also offer great advice on a myriad of other things you’ll need to know about how to sell your house. If you would like our team to come take a look at your home, please reach out to us by phone or email. We would love to help you!
