Re: real estate deals
Steve, I couldn't agree more about Zillow. I put our house on Zillow and found later that they established "their value" for the house. It was less than what it cost to build 9 years ago. I found how they arrived at the number. They use public records available online and pick some properties in the general area. In my case, they had a comp at 80K, two others at 120K. It was ridiculous. We're in the 400s. I tried to remove our place from their web page and they will not allow you to do that. Since then their value, I think they call it the "Zillow estimate" or something like that has been all over the board. I'm really sorry I put our info out there.
