Buying a home? Click here to perform a full home search
A lot of my clients in Seattle have been asking me how it’s possible to increase their Zestimate on Zillow. The Zestimate is created by an algorithm, and there is no ability for humans to manually alter the Zestimate for a specific property.
Zillow can't take features or upgrades on your property and compare them to other recently closed homes in your area, even though doing so gives you a more updated value on your property. Tax values and data from appraisals are used to place a value on your home, which really has nothing to do with its real market value.
However, you can go into Zillow and claim your home, which allows you to change the data on the website. Zestimates are notorious for being inaccurate, and this is one way to combat this problem. Simply follow the instructions in the video and update the features of your home. You can even add square footage from your basement and new pictures of your home. Within 24-48 hours your home value will change on the website.
If you want to find the true value of your home, I would recommend you reach out to me and I can run a comparative market analysis on it. That will be the most accurate way to find your home’s true market value.
We look forward to hearing from you!
