Congratulations to ChaNJestimate! They won our Zestimate ML competition and the $1M prize money. Huge credit to Andy Martin for leading the way, and to @StanHumphries for making our "we should surprise them with a giant check" idea a reality .

The Zestimate now includes real-time updates & neural networks! . We're pretty proud of the accuracy results for our users, all the cross-company collaboration it took to get here, and, frankly, our donut selection for this release. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿฉ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ’ป
