First, when asking yourself how accurate is a Zoopla estimate, you need to keep in mind that Zoopla does not take into account the condition of your home. A property that needs major repairs or renovations can be valued differently than one that is in excellent condition. Additionally, Zoopla does not consider any potential upgrades or changes you may have made to the home.
Second, Zoopla does not factor in any improvements you have made to the surrounding area. If you have landscaped the garden, installed a new fence, or built a deck, none of these improvements will be taken into account.
Third, Zoopla says it gets its estimated valuations from region, property type and asking prices of similar properties in your local area. This is an automated process by Zoopla’s property valuation system called Hometrack.
