Is Zillow still relevant ?

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

I have to ask myself if Zillow.com is still a relevant resource for Real Estate ?
During the Real Estate boom, I was wowed and amazed at the skyrocketing values that Zillow told me my house was worth… but, once values started dropping, I began to notice that Zillow was totally out of touch with realistic valuations for local Real Estate.

I understand that Zillow gathers its data based on recent sales data, etc… and this may cause a slower reaction time since by the time sales close in a fast moving market, prices may have already changed… but, I just want to know from people out there using Zillow…

What are you using Zillow for specifically ?

Is Zillow still providing you relevant services ?

Why would the average person need or want to use Zillow ?
