When the Zestimate is so far off of market value how do I prove more value for Zillow.

Thu, 20 Aug 2009 22:57:00 GMT

I am an agent with a million dollar home which Zillow shows worth at $524,000. This is not even realistic. Is there a way to prove to Zillow there is more worth than they give this house?

Each of us may have our favorite websites, I enjoy reading newspapers online from local to the NYtimes. One of my favorite sites for reviews is http://www.Yelp.com Lets say your looking for an Italian Restaurant in Monterey, CA, you will find a review, your looking for a Hotel in Sacramento, a place for coffee in Oakland once again you will find a review.

I have seen many positive reviews and negative such as a recent review for a Oakdale Plumber.

Enclosed is the default link for Sonora.

Support your merchants, add your own reviews its fun.

This year I ate at a Mexican Rsstaurant in Watsonville, CA. It was the best meal of my life and it was do to Yelp and its readers.

What is the value of your Real Estate?

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 23:14:00 GMT

Looking to check the value of your home? Have you used Zillow for an estimation? Its a great tool that as a Sonora Broker that I use. Is it accurate?

Sometimes and others times its off by thousands. The best tool is work with an agent/broker who has the experience and knowledge of the local community.

The more accurate the value the chances increase for an actual sale. The higher number quoted is sometimes not accurate and it does little good to have a home on the market 6 months without an offer or any showings.

Thinking of selling? Price your home to the market.

Real Estate Dispute? Real Estate Conflict?

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 16:29:00 GMT

November 14 th 2008

What happends if you are having a real dispute? Real Estate conflict?. An alternative to litigation is Mediation.

Mediation is a consenual dispute resolution process where a neutral thrid party assist the disputing party in coming to a mutually agreeable solution. The mediator has no power to impose a decision as he would if he were an arbitrator or judge.

Issues such as non-disclosure, mold or water intrusion, easements, deposits may come to rise in a real estate transaction. Other issues such as landlord tenants issues are common.

Why litigate when you can mediate. www.RealestateMedation.org (209) 536-1103 Jim W Hildreth Real Estate Mediator

460 Arbona Circle

Tue, 28 Oct 2008 00:50:00 GMT

Is this a lot that is located in between 434 and 424 Arbona? If so, 296 seems way too steep of a price, when another larger lot by Golden Gate is only $110! I am interested in purchasing this particular lot location, but need more info on this lot as to why the asking price is so high compared to it's neighboring lots. Thanks, CH

Jim W Hildreth Tuolumne County Sales Leader

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 00:41:00 GMT

August 19 2008 by RE/Max of Sonora Jim W Hildreth

Today I recieved a call from an agent from Heidi Hovatter of Century 21 of Twain Harte, she said to me congratulations on being number One.

I told her I was not number one but number 3 on ActiveRain.

She corrected me and said not ActiveRain but for actual sales both on the listing and and sale side from January 1st to August 19th 2008 for the Tuolumne County Board of Realtors.

I told her I had no idea and she stated that her Broker Kim Darr had brought it to her attention.

The actual unit sales were are at 22 and the top 49 agents averaged 8 sides of sales year to date.

This has been a soft market.

I knew I was closing transactions and as I have told others, its been all the lower end prices that have been selling. $20,000, $65,000, $150,000, $30,000. $231,000

It seems I'm closing 6-7 deals compared to one in the past for the same numbers.

I have a pending sale of $475,000 and this is high end in the present market.

What do I owe to these numbers ?. I'm equal in working with both sellers and buyers at 11 each and the number 2-3 agents have tied into the REO market with strong listings.

Hard work, great sellers & buyers, pricing to the market and I'm also a strong dual agent representing both buyers & sellers.

In addition the internet continues to be valuable in marketing.

I look forward in finishing the year and both buyers and sellers have been great to work with and in the past I have been a strong listing broker.

I look forward in my first ActiveRain referral.
