Zillow has this homes zestimated value at $190000+&nbsp; but only has a <a href="http://www.zillow.com">real estate</a> accessed value of $158000+. A home a few doors over has a higer city assessment and has almost the same square footage and 1 more bedroom but Zillow gave it a lower Zestimation. I sometimes find Zillows zestimations to be quite confusing.<br/><br/>So I am asking "What is the criteria used in making a Zillow home zestimation?"<br/><br/><br \><br \>0 replies Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:29:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/What-is-the-criteria-used-in-making-a-Zillow-home-zestimation/300481/ 2009-11-21T19:29:00Z Why is the "Create an estimate" button missing from my home's page?

Thanks. http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Why-is-the-Create-an-estimate-button-missing-from-my-home%27s-page-Any-help-would-be-nice-Thanks/299999/ The button to create an estimate doesn't show up on my home's zillow page, but I can see it on other homes just fine? &nbsp;Is it because my home was newly built about a year ago? &nbsp;I really would like to create my own zestimate, since they don't have one available for some reason. &nbsp;Thanks if you can help me out. &nbsp;<br \><br \>2 replies Fri, 20 Nov 2009 03:25:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Why-is-the-Create-an-estimate-button-missing-from-my-home%27s-page-Any-help-would-be-nice-Thanks/299999/ 2009-11-20T03:25:00Z this home has 1.5 baths, why isn't it listed at that?

I noticed a lot of <a href="http://www.zillow.com/homes/fsbo/">house for sale</a> in this neighborhood. Could it be due to the "Crips" gang activity? Is this neighborhood getting better or worse? How safe is the area and how bad is Norview High School? I kinda know the answer but would like to hear from someone else. The house obviously needs a lot of work but the gangs would be a deal breaker because I'm trying to live a long life.<br \><br \>1 reply Fri, 16 Oct 2009 02:46:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/This-house-was-vandalized-and-graffiti-read-Crips-all-around-the-property/288773/ 2009-10-16T02:46:00Z Hi I was wondering what type of heat and air conditioning does the house have? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Hi-I-was-wondering-what-type-of-heat-and-air-conditioning-does-the-house-have/286143/ 0 replies Wed, 07 Oct 2009 16:49:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Hi-I-was-wondering-what-type-of-heat-and-air-conditioning-does-the-house-have/286143/ 2009-10-07T16:49:00Z How much value will a gas-pack central heating and air unit add to my home? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/How-much-value-will-a-gas-pack-central-heating-and-air-unit-add-to-my-home/283992/ 0 replies Wed, 30 Sep 2009 22:42:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/How-much-value-will-a-gas-pack-central-heating-and-air-unit-add-to-my-home/283992/ 2009-09-30T22:42:00Z Is this house for sale? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Is-this-house-for-sale/282768/ 0 replies Sun, 27 Sep 2009 17:39:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Is-this-house-for-sale/282768/ 2009-09-27T17:39:00Z The purchase price for our house is wrong - how can I get this corrected? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/The-purchase-price-for-our-house-is-wrong-how-can-I-get-this-corrected/275858/ 1 reply Sat, 05 Sep 2009 19:26:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/The-purchase-price-for-our-house-is-wrong-how-can-I-get-this-corrected/275858/ 2009-09-05T19:26:00Z How can I get the correct purchase price and home value updated for my home????
