HOW ACCURATE IS THE ZOOPLA ESTIMATE?

ONLINE VALUATION TOOL VS ESTATE AGENT MARKET APPRAISAL

An interesting question that some people ask is…

“Can I value my property online”?

It’s not possible to accurately value your property online because there’s not enough data available and the variables are too vast. Elements such as garden size, condition, restrictive covenants and leasehold status; to name a few, make it almost impossible to arrive at an accurate and realistic selling price. The property portal “Zoopla” have an online valuation tool but it relies on recent and comparable evidence. The only way Zoopla can get anywhere close to an accurate valuation is when a very similar property has sold on the same street in the last couple of months. More often than not, Zoopla is way out on its online valuation and should not be relied upon in any circumstances.  In any case, there’s no need to find an online valuation tool when estate agents are willing to come out to your property to provide an accurate valuation, free of charge in most cases.
