BuildZoom just updated their numbers to county vs county comparisons that get around the problem of inconsistent geographical boundaries in some cities.
The story remains.
- meritt 11y agoBuildZoom is utterly incompetent. Take a look at this: http://imgur.com/a/X2ajc http://imgur.com/a/X2ajc Notice how Baltimore County, MD includes Baltimore + the county on Realtor.com (8,579 properties) and Baltimore County, MD on Zillow does not include the city itself? 4523 vs 8579 is indeed ~52.7%. However when you include Baltimore, MD on Zillow too? An additioanl +4211 listings. (4523 + 4211) = 8734 VS 8579. Seriously BuildZoom. Get your shit together. You are still not comparing the same areas!
- Shu_snafu 11y agoOk. So thanks to your post they will fix Baltimore. But what about the other 50 cities? Once they fixed the initial geographic boundaries issue, you're just attacking the sidelines.
- meritt 11y agoI simply looked at the first city and found the exact same issue. Given that was the problem originally reported, the problem we still present after it was "fixed", at this point I think the onus is on you guys to prove it's accurate.
