The Kingsbridge on Queens Creek HOA held its second annual Block Party on Saturday. I don't live in this Hubert NC subdivision but I had the privilege of selling homes to some of the families and they invited me to their party.

Good food, fellowship with neighbors and entertainment for the kids!

If you are relocating to Camp LeJeune, New River Air Station or the Naval Hospital at Camp LeJeune, you will want to take a look at this community of friendly and caring people. It's a wonderful place to live and raise a family and it is a very short drive (about 12 minutes) to the back gate of Camp LeJeune Marine Base. In addition the schools, shopping and restaurants are only about 10 minutes from the neighborhood.

I received an email from Zillow this week saying a Consumer had posted a question on one of my listing. Here is the question the reader asked:
"We just wondered if they were in grave need to sell this and if they would accept the zestimate" 
The listed asking price for this house is $299,500. Zillow's zestimate is $204,000 to $211,00!
Where do they get their comparables for my area? I've done my homework (CMA) and have the figures to support the listing price.
Is there some wiggle room? Of course there is..... but not $95,000!
House prices have fallen in Onslow County, North Carolina like they have all over the country but not that much.
Back to the question the Consumer asked? Go back and read it again.....could it be that Consumers do understand that Zillow's Zestimates are not always realistic?
Perhaps the Consumer is more savy than we give them credit for.
Take heart fellow Blogger, perhaps our efforts at educating Consumers is not falling on deaf ears after all.
Keep up the good work!
