Zillow Using Their Own Facts

Written by Jim the Realtor

Oh geez, here we go again.

The number of Zillow views DECLINED since yesterday.

How do the views go backwards?

We already know that Zillow recalibrates their zestimates to within 1% of the list price once a home is listed on the MLS, rendering their posted guesses of a home’s value as completely useless on active listings. They also re-jigger the entire zestimate history too, in a blatant attempt to appease the listing agents.

Now they are tinkering with the view counts too?

Redfin is a lying scumbag too. This was their guess on Wednesday:

Now look at their bogus claim, just two days later:

Get Good Help!

Follow up – this is the Saturday version, three days after the listing hit the MLS. But by now I don’t know who or what to believe, if anything. It like learning about Santa Claus!

    Yes.
    I have screenshots from a few listings that were showing a certain number of views. The next day the view count decreased almost 1K views. Next day it was down a few hundred more. It slowly crept back up in the next few days. It was a very popular property which is why the views were quite high. I lost all trust from Z when I saw this happening. If there is a reasonable explanation I’m open to hearing but it would need to be something like the internet got hacked or the power grid blew a gasket. Wtf lol.
