Do you trust Redfin's Estimates?

Zachary Schimenz
Posted

Hey, I'm a new investor, currently analyzing a lot of deals (to buy and hold). I was wondering if the numbers on Redfin are fairly accurate, or do they just use a generic percentage across the US? There are two sections I'm referring to, one is the "Payment Calculator" area:

And the other is the "Taxes" under the "Property Details" section. Are these the real taxes on the property, or is Redfin estimating what the taxes would be?

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate any advice!

-Zach

@Zachary Schimenz

Don’t trust Redfin or Zillow values.  They are generally incorrect.  You need to conduct your own analysis.  Use sold comps, with similar style of house, square footage, bedrooms, baths, etc.
