Thank you for the education. But why do I need to use zillow or speak to a real estate agent?

this is details on the same house from zillow
estimated value 623K. Is this home owner is out of his mind offering his house for 134K below zillow estimate?

Cal and New York are probably more like 10 to 1.
Quote from HedgefundTrader2:
You will never see the day when those houses will be sitting at 2003 prices. This is where retail buyers become " Real Estate Speculators" and torpedo their own chances of setting foot in a house. Those prices will never come.
Quote from traderdragon2:
Too bad you are already wrong.
Im watching san diego homes hit 2003 prices as we speak. Here is one of many examples
Quote from krazykarl:
Zillow is NOT accurate by ANY measure. My house changes in value several thousand dollars, according to Zillow, from one day to the next(up and down) almost every day.

Quote from traderdragon2:
Its perfectly accurate when it records a SALE though. See the little circle with the $$$ in it??? Thats not an estimate. Thats the actual sale price.
The zestimate is horribly lagging though. The market is well below the zestimate.
Quote from krazykarl:
The sales are fine, but the blue line on that chart is worthless. Completely and utterly.
I've seen "Zestimates" both high and low on comps. Again, that number is useless.
