I would claim your house and then flag the old "sale" with the small white flag next to the transaction so that Zillow can update it. If records are available, they will update the last sale and that often seems to make the Zestimate more accurate especially if the sale was land only.

I pulled the documents at our assessors office, which are accurate. However, Zillow still references the info from the prior house on this lot - which was scraped in 1981! Really?

I contacted my county regarding how the sale price of my home was recorded. They explained to me that it was sold to me by two separate people, each with one half interest in the house, and there were two deeds recorded on the same date for the same amount - each for exactly half of what I paid for the house - one from the owner and one from the personal representative of the other owner. So it is recorded correctly, according to the county, but Zillow needs to look at both the deeds recorded on the same date and total them in order to post the correct sale amount.

This information comes from public data sources such as your local assessor's office. If you want it corrected then that would be the first place to go. You cannot make a change to that section on Zillow.
How do I edit public record fact? Price history (sale price) is wrong.
