    Oh, and sequ, for the record... I sold my other three houses in one day or less too. That's probably why I'm so impatient. But I don't runaround giving everyone useless info like I know everything because of it. It was just because my Step-Dad was a realtor. He did it for me. He has since passed away. I think you are overrating your importance in the process. The Realtors are the ones doing all the legwork, you're just taking the credit.

    Well I take Sequ and the other self-proclaimed experts in here with a grain of salt since none of them live in the Stone Oak area. Zillow doesn't take into account the upgrades you have in your house such as water softeners, solar screens, electric air purification systems, additional insulation, etc... These are things that add great value to a buyer.
    FYI, my hedges are trimmed. Maybe you should get some glasses. Apparently the hideous pictures didn't turn off looker #3 because she made an offer today. It was quite acceptable and we are going to sign the papers tonight. Oh and it was higher than Zillow's estimate.

    Congrats! Don't be mad at us!

    Zillow is WAY off on the homes in my neighborhood. They have mine at only 300K and a house behind me at $154K that would sell easy for a half mil.

    Maybe Zillow isn't quite up to snuff in Texas? It is better in some regions of the country than others. It's a Seattle company and the prices are pretty accurate for Washington and Oregon, but I know it isn't accurate for some regions.

    Some comments from people about zillow from the consumerist website

    I use Zillow a lot in my work. Seconding that it works best in the suburbs. Not only does it have a hard time in the metro areas, it also performs poorly in rural areas (where there isn't much to comapare, and houses may vary widely in the same areas). And as the article states, it also has hard time at the highest and lowest ends of the real estate market

    but this is good to know

    Folks, you can update your home's information on Zillow to correct its errors, as well as get a more accurate estimation. You can even post your own private "asking price" if you think it might be time. Spend some time with it and its a very useful tool.

    sequ's relator probably made the decision to omit the pics of him playing in the yard. a lot of people are disturbed by dwarves and odd looking children.

    Exactly... as far as your upgrades, they don't mean all that much when you are on the high side of the cost per sf.

    You post your on here, you post your link and you can't take some criticism? It ain't you, it's your realtor..

    I am glad you sold your house today, but your pics still suck.

    You have a picture of a cluttered computer desk on your frontpage... How in the is that going to sell your house?

    Frickin hater...

    take it from someone who sold their house in a day... your realtor put your first impression right there on the website.. ty pics... the only good one is the back patio...

    constructive criticism.. learn from it... the bushes in the front yard need to be trimmed as well....
    Hey Sequ,
    My daughter suggested that if you hate my hedges so much we can give you a ladder and you can trim them.

    Zillow sucks in TX because they don't have access to sales data. State law makes sure only the Realtor Mafia has access to those. TX is one of the few states where that is the case.

    Congrats on selling the house, but expecting to sell a house that fast this time of year really does seem unrealistic. Glad you were able to do it.

    Wow! Congrats on the quick sell. Was it another California transplant that bought it?

    No. It's someone who already lives in this school district but has been renting while shopping for a house. As long as the inspection goes well then we are good to go. I don't see any problems.

    Bake cookies before the showing. Have them warm when they arrive and offer them some. That way it smells like home.
