What is even happening?
Agreed. I don't want to be friends with the person who sent that poor pug down the slide, though. Poor thing must have been scared.

It's about time *someone* did.

le nubian, the zillow estimates in my town directly correspond to the county estimates of value for tax purposes. Thankfully (from a tax-payer and house-seller's standpoint) these estimates are quite a bit lower than the houses sell for on the market.
Zillow might have better estimates in bigger markets, but here they just troll the tax rolls.

Oh, that's interesting, Rick. I've been saying we're underwater based on zillow, but I know the tax estimates were much lower than the appraisal we had done at the time. So I should check and see if that's the case in our area. I bet it is.

Huh, I wonder if the Bmore city estimates are affected by our homestead tax credit?

Our county lists a before and after homestead credit value, and zillow's bots grab the before.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
#21 needs to go up on Good Stuff.
Good call.
I know you said you weren't worried about it, Jesse, but just to throw it out there - do you still have checks? You can go to the grocery store and write a check for over the amount if the cash situation gets too tight before your new card shows up.
Ooh, good tip! The grocery store is way easier to get to than the bank, for me. But I can definitely go to the bank when it's open tomorrow, so that should be fine.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Rick,
hmm. thanks for that information. It is lower than my county tax estimate. To add insult to injury.
