<|begin_of_text|><|begin_of_text|><|begin_of_text|>Ever since Zillow evolved into.. well, whatever it is now (some sort of real estate search, AVM, mortgage rate and discussion forum Frankenstein Hydra, as far as I can tell), the controversy over Zestimates seems to<wm> be the latest casualty. They need a new "improvement" model, I presume?.

Over the years, a lot of users seem to be saying how much of the Zestimate is not a perfect reflection of the actual, fair market price for a property. Because the Zestimate uses its assumptions, algorithms and computer models to generate what they call "estimates," as opposed to the actual selling price paid for a transaction in most places in the US. You can't know how accurate that</wm> Zestimate will be.

According to reports in Zestimates, this is not a minor matter.
