A Zestimate is Zillow’s estimated market value for a home, computed using a proprietary formula including public and user-submitted data, such as details about a home (bedrooms, bathrooms, home age, etc.), location, property tax assessment information and sales histories of the subject home as well as other homes that have recently sold in the area.
The Zestimate® home valuation model is Zillow’s estimate of a home’s market value. A Zestimate incorporates public, MLS and user-submitted data into Zillow’s proprietary formula, also taking into account home facts, location and market trends. It is not an appraisal and can’t be used in place of an appraisal.
Zillow publishes Zestimates for more than 104 million homes across the country. The Zestimate formula uses hundreds of data points for each home to come up with a number representing the likely selling price of that home. How accurate is a Zestimate? Zestimates are generally quite accurate.
For example, consider a home with three submodel estimates: $40,000, $50,000 and $100,000. The modeling system may determine that the $50,000 estimate or some blend of the $40,000 and $50,000 estimates are the most accurate value for the Zestimate. However, if the home is then listed for sale at $95,000, the system will look for a submodel that ...
A Rent Zestimate (pronounced ZEST-ti-met, rhymes with estimate) is Zillow’s estimated monthly rent price, computed using a proprietary formula. It is a starting point in determining the monthly rental price for a specific property. The Rent Zestimate is pulled from public property data and similar local properties listed for rent; there may ...
The Rent Range shows high and low rent estimates for an apartment or house — and the published Rent Zestimate will fall somewhere between the two, at a value we determine is most likely to represent a fair market rent. Example: If the Rent Range is $2,000-$3,200, the published Rent Zestimate might be approximately $2,600.
Fewer listings may result in short-term impacts. Recent home sales and new for-sale listings also affect the Zestimate. Both sales and listings have slowed due to COVID-19 concerns, making it harder to calculate Zestimates. As of May 3, 2020, new listings were down 39% compared to the same time last year.

Stan Humphries • Jun 27 2019. The algorithm that powers Zillow’s signature home valuation tool — the Zestimate — is getting an upgrade. Now more accurate than ever, the new Zestimate uses computer vision to analyze photos of a home to understand not just its facts and figures, but its quality and curb appeal. The Zestimate also now ...
