The good folks over at sellsius have posted video of the panel discussion involving Realtor.Com's Allan Dalton and Zillow.com's Lloyd Frink at the California Association of Realtors' annual convention. Well worth a look ...

Speaking of Zillow, they were hit with an FTC consumer complaint earlier in the week, filed by the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC). According to the NCRC's press release:

“Zillow is placing the American dream of homeownership at risk for countless working families,” says John Taylor, NCRC President and CEO. “For a company that represents to consumers that they are the ‘Kelley Blue Book of Homes,’ this is a very dangerous situation. We call upon the FTC to intervene and ensure that Americans receive accurate appraisals and valuation information to protect the single most important investment of their lives: their home.”

You can read the actual complaint here.

And last but certainly not least, another blog worth checking into is Todd Tarson's MOCO Real Estate News, where we learn there is more to Mohave County than being the Valley's lifeline to Vegas.
