🚨 Why You Can't Trust Zillow's Zestimate for Major Decisions

🚨 Why You Can't Trust Zillow's Zestimate for Major Decisions

I'm Steve Hise, and people are making SIX-FIGURE mistakes by trusting Zillow without understanding it's just a computer algorithm with incomplete, outdated data.

Here's what Zillow DOESN'T know:

❌ YOUR PROPERTY'S ACTUAL CONDITION Foundation cracks, old roof, outdated systems, water damage - Zillow knows none of it.

❌ RECENT MARKET SHIFTS Data is 30-60 days old. If the market changed last month, Zillow hasn't caught up.

❌ WHAT'S ACTUALLY SELLING NOW Recent sales under asking, sitting inventory, new competition - not in Zillow's data yet.

❌ LOCAL FACTORS School changes, neighborhood issues, buyer demand shifts - algorithms don't know this.

❌ CONDITION DIFFERENCES Your outdated home vs. renovated comps - Zillow treats them the same.

REAL EXAMPLE: Client: "Zillow says $615K!" My analysis: $589K Result: Sold $592K in 10 days

Why was Zillow wrong? Market shifted 6 weeks ago, competition increased, sales going under asking, old HVAC. Zillow knew NONE of that.

If they'd listed at $625K based on Zillow? Months of price reductions.

Zillow = research tool, not professional valuation Local agent = real-time expertise and strategy

Stop trusting computers with major financial decisions.
