217: Zillow Secrets: How to Use It the Right Way (and What the Zestimate Misses)

Zillow might be the #1 real estate website but that doesn’t mean everything you see there tells the full story. In this episode, we’re diving into how to use Zillow effectively whether you’re buying, selling, or just window shopping. We’ll walk through a real listing in Pomona and show you exactly what to look for (and what to question). From understanding how listing details get uploaded, to knowing that your “schedule a tour” button connects you to a Zillow-preferred agent, not necessarily the listing agent.. What about that famous “Zestimate”? We’ll talk about how Zillow calculates it, why it’s often off-base, and why working with a local real estate professional is key to getting accurate numbers and guidance. Zillow can be an amazing tool when you know how to use it right.
