Two sources. Not one.
Refreshed weekly and dated. Where they disagree, that disagreement is the useful part — so we publish it instead of averaging it away.
Homes here are modeled at $681,989 while the ones currently listed are asking a median of $682,583 — a spread worth knowing before you write an offer.
Zillow models every home in these ZIPs; Realtor.com takes the median of the homes currently listed. Part of any gap is seller pricing and part is that active inventory is not a representative sample of the area.
