Based on the ~20 minutes of research I’ve done, I don’t think changing the zip code is going to have any effect on property values. Changing the zip code will have an effect on a lot of other things (every institution that has your address, checks, license, registration, business cards, web sites, etc) and it won’t be pretty. I’m guessing it would take years before all of the things affected by the change would finally be updated to reflect the new zip code. You would probably have to call your bank, the DMV, the IRS, the county, the list goes on, to make sure they change the zip code. I really don’t have time for this.
