Dream Home Property Estimate

4 years ago

https://dreamhomebykeith.com - Are you relying on Zillow to give you your property's estimate?

Hi, my name's Keith Kreis with Charles Rutenberg Realty. Zillow uses a computer algorithm system based on public data. Zillow comes up with a value based on what other homes have sold in your neighborhood. They look at things like how large a house is, how many bedrooms you have, how many bathrooms you have. Zillow has never seen the inside of your house.

The one great thing about living in the suburbs is there's so many different style houses, they really can't give you an accurate estimate. And even Zillow acknowledges their lack of accuracy stating that in Illinois, it estimates that they are currently 10% off the final sales price of only 54.5% of all homes. That means a $400,000 house, they could be off by $40,000 or more. Don't have the value of your home based on an algorithm. Zillow even encourages you to get a professional appraisal on your house or an estimate from a licensed real estate.

That's why you need a professional realtor that lives and plays in this area, that knows the area, who has sold hundreds of homes in the area.
