Zillow has our house about $90,000 less than what the County Assessment recently raised our house to ( which I am going to try and appeal)
I think Zillows is more accurate if still a little high, considering that most people don’t want to live in an under 1000 sqft house with a fuse box, and only one bathroom. ( It was supposed to be our * starter* house).
Sales are slowing considerably & sellers are having to lower their price-
But at least that has slowed down the flippers who were buying homes, throwing some paint and landscaping in and selling it for double to people who were coming in from even more overpriced areas.

We have lived here for about 25 years & we bought in this neighborhood because it was affordable. ROFLAO. not anymore.
Our loan is now more than what we originally paid, after job loss, refinancing for college tuition, and needed new car ( lower interest than the auto loan) But glad D didn’t apply to a school that needed PROFILE.
