This information isn't always accurate. A "zestimate" is good information, however, not personalized for your home. It is always best to get a professional Realtor (experienced in your area) to view your home &amp; provide a market analysis for you.

If your's hasn't, then they will just use their computer models to approximate your value.&nbsp; One thing you can do is create your own estimate on Zillow.&nbsp; If your not trying to sell then I wouldn't even worry about it.&nbsp; If you are thinking about it, then the reality is you should have at least 3 professionals (Realtors) do what's called a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis).&nbsp; You aren't obligated into anything and certainly don't jump at the first person who can promise you they will sell your home for top dollar.&nbsp; Those brokers are shadey in my book.&nbsp;The reality is that most brokers&nbsp;use all the same tools and channels to sell your home.&nbsp;&nbsp;The difference is follow through that makes the difference.&nbsp; Your home is only worth what someone is willing to pay&nbsp;for it at a given time period.&nbsp;Nobody, not even the best broker can "make" someone buy your home.&nbsp;&nbsp;If and only if you'd like, I'd be happy to ballpark a value for you.&nbsp; You can email me directly, just look up my profile, or my phone number is listed above.&nbsp; <br/><br/>Jay Feaster<br/>FeasterRealty.com Thu, 14 Oct 2010 17:23:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/MY-property-is-under-zestimated-compared-to-same-floor-plan-backing-up-to-high-traffic-boulvard/353296/ 2010-10-14T17:23:00Z
