We do not delete Zestimate®. However, for some homes we may not have enough data to provide a home valuation that meets our standards for accuracy. In these instances, we do not publish the Zestimate® until more data can be obtained.
The Zestimate is designed to be a neutral estimate of the fair market value of a home, based on publicly available and user-submitted data. For this purpose, it is important that the Zestimate® is based on information about all homes (e.g., beds, baths, square footage, lot size, tax assessment, prior sale price) and that the algorithm itself is consistently applied to all homes in a similar manner.
The Zestimate is calculated by an automated software process. It is not possible to manually alter the Zestimate® for a specific property.
