How accurate are online home values in Brunswick County?
Across 15 Brunswick County homes compared on Free House Value, Zillow's Zestimate® and the public-records estimate were a median of 3% apart (about $22,000) on the same home. Neither has been inside the home.
Which estimate runs higher in Brunswick County?
Public records came in higher on about 67% of the homes compared here.
Why are the estimates so different?
They're built from different data — tax records, past sales and listing history — and none of them can see a home's condition, updates, view or lot. A local agent's comparative market analysis from the MLS looks at what actually sold, went under contract and failed to sell nearby.
What's the best way to get a real number?
Use the online estimates as a starting range, then ask a local licensed agent for a comparative market analysis built from MLS data and your home's actual condition.
