Zestimates are generally speaking 10-15% above or below actual appraised values. They post their range of accuracy on their website here: https://www.zillow.com/z/zestimate/ Scroll down a bit to "Off Market" then find LA / OC.

Zillow/Redfin Now/OpenDoor are problem solver products - Don't want to fix? Don't want buyers trampling through your home? Need to make a non-contingent offer?, or  _______________ Insert Reason Here - these cash buy out programs move problems to the sideline faster than traditional "hard money lending".

Are they relatively expensive compared to traditional methods of sale? Sure. That said, there is no universal set price for ease of mind.

Taa-daaaa!  Take a big bite of the nothing burger and hope and pray more.


Biden Pushes Gun Control, But Legislation Is Unlikely

The White House Rose Garden was an idyllic setting on Thursday -- incongruously so, given the brutal problem being addressed. There, President Biden announced a slate of executive actions to combat what he called an “epidemic” of gun violence.

“Let me say it again,” he told the assembled mothers and fathers of children horrifically killed at Newtown, Conn., and Parkland, Fla. “Gun violence in this country is an epidemic.” Those gathered signaled their approval with applause as Biden added that, what’s more, “it is an international embarrassment.”


Biden ran as a gun control candidate, someone with a record of both successes and failures on the issue. As a senator, he helped pass the Brady Handgun Violence Protection Act in 1993 and the Assault Weapons Ban in 1994. He could not get more comprehensive changes into law as vice president.

“I know it's painful and frustrating that we haven't made the progress that we'd hoped for,” Biden admitted Thursday as cherry blossoms swayed in the spring breeze behind him. “But it took five years to get the Brady bill passed, and it took even more years to work to pass the assault weapons ban.  And it saved lives.”

His message, now as president, is that he is willing to work with Congress, but he is also moving on his own. Flanked by Vice President Harris and Attorney General Merrick Garland, Biden announced half a dozen actions.

He will tighten regulations around “ghost guns” -- firearms assembled by hobbyists from parts that often lack serial numbers -- requiring that buyers go through a background check. He also called on the Department of Justice to propose a rule that could outlaw pistol brace devices, specialty slings that replace standard stocks, like the one used last month in a Boulder, Colo., mass shooting.

Biden also ordered the DOJ to issue an annual report on firearms trafficking and to draft legislative templates for states to follow in passing “red flag” laws that would allow family members or law enforcement to remove firearms from anyone a court determined to be at risk to themselves or others.

The president also announced his intention to nominate David Chipman, a gun-control activist and law enforcement veteran, to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

All of those actions, Biden argued, were meant to fulfill his duty to protect public safety. “My job, the job of any president, is to protect the American people,” he said. “Whether Congress acts or not, I'm going to use all the resources at my disposal … to keep the American people safe from gun violence.” In the end, though, he may be limited to what he can do from the Oval Office.

How did the final offer compare with the 'Zestimate' prior to contacting Zillow?

Definitely money left on the table.. but I think it was more based on where prices have gone since December rather than the price that Zillow offered.

Some fan vendors offer wall control that fits in place of a switch. For example this one: https://www.hunterfan.com/collections/ceiling-fan-controls/products/ceiling-fan-accessories-fan-light-dual-slide-wall-control-27182

I looked briefly at the manual and it may require a 3 conductor wire between the fan and that switch.
