Zestimate home values are terribly unreliable on pricing home sales and home values in general. As a broker I have know this since Zillow first started showing up on the web over 6 years ago. Though this site is accessed by many buyers and sellers alike it is inaccurate in estimating home values. Buyers as well as sellers get confused. I am not surprised. Check out this recent online valuation that was generated on sold listings while I was doing an Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) with my business partner, Phillip Bailey, for a property we will be listing at the exclusive Peninsula Point area of Newport Beach. The sold Zestimates ( Z for Zillow ) are 18% to over 30% off from the actual closing price.
Location, interior finishes and views can not be put into a formula. It still takes a professional agent or broker to do it right! Contact me for an evaluation anytime. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

It will come up for standard auction not a foreclosure action soon. Opening bid is $9.55 Million. The land is 59,563 sqft with 200 feet of bluff. The house needs to be remodeled, if not constructed new, but this view is worth the time and effort. Listed by WEA.
