In summary, Zillow provides instant valuation and data for over 60,000,000 homes, using information from tax records. Some users have found that their house value is listed lower than expected, while others have experienced issues with incorrect square footage and lack of added value for features such as pools. However, the site can serve as a quick and easy comparison tool and has received praise for its accuracy from some users.

I think they have whatever homes are in their database. They have mine listed with data from the tax records, and the price is the assessed value, which is under the market value, and they have the wrong square footage. So this stuff is just for reference.

The hell this house is worth $350,000. Maybe $250...
And the house on the street south of us at the corner.. they say $900,000... I say $1.2 million probably. Hey my mothers a real estate agent, why not ask her and we'll see how this site compares.
haha, "Construction quality: 8". I guess this scales out of 100
