Looking at a house and the county records shows the value at about 30K less than the list price. How accurate are the valuations? Anyone know?

For that matter how good is Zillow with their estimates?

Zillow is inaccurate due to Utah being a "Non Disclosure St"

Call a Realtor and ask for a valuation.

Zillow's problem is it can't and never will be able to tell

In Virginia it is the opposite. Zillow undervalues.

No. In fact they are inadmissible in court
