Curious about what your home’s value is in this market and you don’t think Zillow or Redfin know your true value? Same!!! I have been working in Real Estate for over 15 years and only once did I have a home sell right at the Zillow value and that home was in the suburbs surrounded by a lot of similar types of homes. But here in the city, many of the algorithms don’t quite get the value of homes right.
What is My Home’s Value in Seattle?
Fill out the form below and we will send you a questionnaire to help us figure out your home’s value. By us I mean experienced real estate brokers who live and work in Seattle. It will not be an algorithm or AI bot that doesn’t give a crap about you or your home.
In the questionnaire we will ask you questions like the following:
- What is the Square Footage of the Home?
- Is the square footage all finished?
- Have you done any updates to your home?
- Have you cultivated a garden?
- Is your home currently rented?
- Do you know of any major work that is needed in your home?
- And more!
The list will help us figure out what your home value is today. We might have some follow-up questions to your responses. Just know there are real people with years of experience figuring out what your home is worth right now. Our team will also send you updates on your home value as the market shifts.
Most Algorithm Generated Home Valuations Stink
Right now as I’m writing this Zillow thinks our house is worth $870,000 and Redfin thinks it’s worth $850,000. Meanwhile, the home across the street from ours sold for over $1,000,000 million. Another home that is closer to Lake Washington sold for around $900,000. The thing that the algorithms do not understand is that our home is sandwiched between Rainier Avenue and Lake Washington. Three blocks to the west of us homes typically sell for about $200,000 less than our home. And homes two blocks over on the east side next to the Lake sell for well over $1.5M.
