How Accurate Is Your Zillow Estimate in San Diego?

from The Rieder Homes Podcast

How accurate is your Zillow estimate? If you're buying or selling in San Diego, the number you see online might be further off than you think. We recently listed a home where Zillow was $50,000 under the real value because the algorithm was working off outdated tax records that didn't include a 400-square-foot addition. On unlisted homes, we're seeing a 6-7% margin of error, which on a $600,000 home could mean a $40,000 difference. Watch our video to see why the Zestimate gets it wrong and what to do instead.

Zillow's algorithm can't walk through your home or see your upgrades. Here's what it misses and how to find your home's real value in San Diego.
