Can zestimate update the improvements in my home to match my estimate?

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:58:00 GMT

I believe the information that you have according to zestimate is inaccurate and I want to know how I can have it updated. Since we recently renovated our house.

This condo valuation dropped drastically, but other units in the same building did not - seems strange.

The highest estimate in 2006 was $325k. How could your estimate be off almost $30K? Credibility is important. What gives?

We have purchased a "future" retirement home, Jan 2009. We have not moved in yet, and our time line was 1-2 years before moving from our current home to retirement home. Can we still take advantage of the credit?

Refinancing on a Fannie Mae loan

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 09:19:00 GMT

I am looking to refinance my first mortgage on my primary residence. I have my mortgage with Chase but Fannie Mae owns it. I owe 400K and the value of the house is about 330K. Chase proposes a streamline value refi but the rate is 5.65%. I was doing my homework and found that you can refi through HARP up to 125% LTV and the rates are about 4.5 - 4.75 APR no points. I have a second mortgage with Chase for 60K. What would you recommend to do?

why is the newly-announced $6500 tax credit only for people that have owned their home 5 of 8 years?

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 20:46:00 GMT

Both the house and senate have agreed to extend the $8000 first-time homebuyer tax credit through May 1st, 2010. In addition, ANY homeowner that's lived in their home for 5 of the past 8 years can now also claim a $6,500 rebate as well.
This is big news for those of us in the real estate community, as this credit seems to be the driving motivation behind a large percentage of recent home-buying decisions. But, has anyone heard an explanation why the "must have owned for 5 of the past 8 years" requirement is attached to the $6500?

Hi - how to correct the figure on the recently sold info on our house? Date right, figure wrong!

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 17:26:00 GMT

The date is right - but the figure for what it sold for is the figure our seller bought at and not what we bought for in Aug 09... is there a way to correct that info somehow? thanks!

when pricing your home to sell, does your price include the lot size of your property?

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 16:42:00 GMT

My lot size is considerably larger than my neighbors and I wanted to know if this would be able to increase my for-sale price.
