Real Living Zillowed? : Discover Columbus

Oct. 2, 2006 - Real Living Zillowed?

Do I have to stop doing entries about property in Central Ohio being "unzillowable?" Do I have to stop asking if Columbus area sellers were Zillowed?

I saw it on a news release on our company intranet first.

When a REALTOR® friend Don Fabrizio-Garcia on the east coast read it in Broker Agent News he wrote me....

"Have you and your company been Zillowed??

How are the agents taking this? I would think they may be concerned about Zillow over- or under-valuing the property, then having to fight against Zillow's estimate."

It was also in Rismedia.

Real Living has been an advertiser on Zillow since the very beginning.... dumb?

According to The Future of Real Estate Marketing blog by Joel Burslem Real Living's match up with Zillow is not so dumb..

I love how they’ve successfully tapped into the whole controversy around the accuracy of Zillow’s data, used it as a teaser and then successfully paired it with a call to action, in order to capture the lead.

Brilliant. "

I don't see Zillow on HER Real Living yet.... HER Real Living is Columbus and Central Ohio...

Front page of the Real Living website says

" Get a Free Home Valuation Instantly!

Use our quick estimate tool to find out what your home is worth! "

The Real Living Zillow Page says:

"Working with a Real Living agent means you can be sure your home's estimated value is accurate - on average - within 96 percent of its final sale price. So when the time comes, your agent will sell your home fast - and get you top dollar."

I have blogged about Zillow a time or two....

Zillowed

Unzillowable is a word coined by Sellsius° Blog :

"Unzillowable, adjective (un zil’ o abull): unable to be valued by the popular website zillow.com."
