Should you get a home valuation from Zillow?

You can. It’s one way to get a home valuation, but I don’t think it’s the best way.

The best way is to have a real estate professional like myself meet you at your property and walk through it with you so you can get an accurate idea of what its value is.

Zillow won’t take into consideration what upgrades you have. I, on the other hand, can come to your house and look at the upgrades and improvements you’ve made that have added value to it. I can also evaluate its condition compared to the rest of the properties in the area.

Zillow is one way to get a home valuation, but it’s not the best way.

Another thing Zillow won’t take into consideration is the inventory in your area, whereas I can look specifically at how many houses are out there and what’s available in your neighborhood.

Take a look at Zillow if you like, but having a real estate professional walk through your property with you is a much better way to get an accurate valuation of it.

If you have any questions or would like me to come out to your home to figure out what it’s worth, don’t hesitate to call me or shoot me an email. I’d love to help you.
