MLS vs Zillow

[Tyler S.]

What would be the benefit of pulling comps on zillow vs the MLS. Also I just pulled comps from the county assessor and zillow and averaged them out and came up with an arv of $80000. So would I be ok with pulling comps from these sources?

There really is no comparison between MLS and Zillow. I read some of your posts on the tax assessor. You really need an agent to give you MLS comps before going forward with your deal. Do NOT buy based on zillow or tax assessor, you will be get burned. If not this deal, then another.
