Most common problems Account Closed are putting a band-aid on a bullet hole when it comes to repairs, trying to 'make it work' with tenants who are always a slow pay and tenants not knowing how their homes work (i.e. change AC filters, clean condensers, where water shut off is,) and things the tenants can do to avoid repairs.

Even doing comp itself is sometimes vague because like I say, comps high and comps low has three to four standard deviation, in a one million home, the range could be from $850k to $1.3mil.and to make even thing more complicated even the same house that was sold for X price in March, same house could go to 0.98x by December due to seasonality aspect of neighborhood and supply-demand dynamics.From statistical perspective, zEstimate is good when there're lot of similar comps in the neighborhood with condensed price pattern (for example, if neighborhood price is ranging from 200k-250k ; but it would be all over the place if home price is too low or too high).Even professional desktop appraisl would face similar problem as well, so I would not blame Zillow/zEstimate. this is merely statistical issue.So you still need professional appraisal.But again if you ask three different appraisar, they would come with three different opinions LOL , it's the reality.
