Any computer algorithm is going to have flaws.

Plus there are the algorithms that determine your visibility and what price you show up at.

A site such as Zillow can only use an algorithm to come up with a rough estimate.

My assumption was that the Zvalues were both independent and (despite being presumably algorithm only generated) accurate enough to put them beyond any practical challenge.This was back in the 2010 time frame, so it's a totally done deal without issue.

I am sure I can make a few more bucks, but frankly I hate dynamic pricing when I am hunting for a place to stay.I have been told that the algorithms these days are better and that the potential guests see the actual price rather than the lowest possible price before booking and getting struck with a much higher price.

That way I can compete in the algorithms with apartments that do not provide heat or hot water.

I have never paid much attention to the algorithm for credit, and my score has always been fine.

That's how the algorithms on social media work.

Do you have any metrics or algorithms you use to do a price analyzation on Zillow or realtor?
