Can anyone clue me in on the fluctuations in Zillow pricing? I know they get a lot of their info from tax records but I can't figure out what has happened with my property.
I live in the Pacific Northwest. Prices are holding up and sometimes inching up. Last year, about this time, Zillow's top range for me was $525,000. A couple of months ago, I checked again and it was $492,000. Checked last week and it was $624,000!!!! Values of neighbors' houses did not change. We have consistently been about $50,000 below one of the neighbors and now we are $50,000 higher.
Just got our new tax statement and the value of our house, for tax purposes, increased about $40,000.
Does anyone have an explanation? I'm absolutely sure our house would not bring over $550,000 tops and probably much less.
