Zillow vs. cyberhomes. WTH happened to Zillow?

[Anonymous]

Zillow is flawed. Presenting comparable properties that are not comparable, estimating values based on non comparable properties and allowing people to think they are the source of pricing is absurd. Pathetic communication. No response to inquiries, no response to posts on their site, no ability to call…awful! Founders should go back to travel web sites and stay out of real estate. I am going to forward my attempted communications with them to the attorney general in Massachusetts.

Quite right! They have no standing to list your property or mine! They particularly have no business providing poor information and positioning themselves as “authorities” on pricing. They are flawed! Badly and should be held accountable in court.

I don’t get it, how exactly are you hurt by Zillow? They take historical data and use a formula to give what they think is a price. They have disclaimers up the wazoo saying the prices are only an estimate.

Even if they list your house for sale, when it is not, how are you harmed? Would it be a crime for me to say your house is worth less than you probably think?

Zillow harms people by presenting information based upon flawed models that impacts public perceptions. Regardless of what the instrinsic value of a property is today (much less than FMV) there is a fairly accurate way of establishing FMV (comparable analysis at the street level by appraisors and realtors). Zillow provides lots of good information but their presentation of zestimates is irresponsible IMO.
