Zillow Adds For Sale Postings, Make Me Move, and RE Wiki
So…this is exciting stuff to say the least–Zillow is launching a new version of our website tonight (in process)! Personally, I think this is the most exciting thing we’ve done since we launched in February. So-what’s included in our new feature set??
- Agents and owners can post homes for sale–for FREE.
- Added a real estate wiki that is seeded with over 100 articles–and opening it up to the community for improvement & expansion
- Make Me Move–now ANYONE can set a “dream” price for their home
If this sounds intriguing (which hopefully you do), you can read more over at the Zillow Blog (I’ll link when posted).
UPDATE: We’re now LIVE!! Come on…go check out the Zillow Blog post and then visit Zillow and see the new features for yourself!!
Zillow’s own David Gibbons (Director of Customer Service) writes his introductory post, “Zillow wants Your Listins,” as a member of the Active Rain community (with 10,000+ members, should I jump on the bandwagon too?).
Keeping Track–I’ll keep a tab of the blog posts & stories that I find tonight. Here’s the run-down (in order):
- Kevin Boer took some guesses as to the product features we were adding tonight when he found our “Holiday Suprise” page (shown below).
- TechCrunch was the 1st blog to post to announce the new features (hit 9:00 on the dot)
- Greg Swann at the Bloodhound Realty Blog
- Inman News – Article 1, Article 2, Article 3
- Ardell at Rain City Guide
- GigaOM says “Zillow Shows More of Its Cards”
- LA Times with an article titled “It’s a Seller’s Market for Real Estate Web Site Zillow.com“
- RCG’s Ardell on her own blog
- MSNBC’s “Expedia founder in web property move“
- John Cook’s “Homes for sale now listed on Zillow.com“
- Hotpads’ “Zillow Launches for-sale listings“
- Future of Real Estate Technology’s “Zillow to offer free listings“
- SocketSite’s “Zillow Adds Listings (Zlistings?)“
- Transparent RE posts “Everything you need to know about Zillow in 15 minutes“
- Russell Shaw at BloodHound wonders “Is BloodHound the Most Wired Blog in Real Estate?“
- Michael Parekh on IT writes “On Zillow’s New ‘Make Me Move” Feature’“
- Sellsius posts “Yes, I am a National Listing Site“
- Kevin Boer (2nd post) posts “Wow! You Leave for an Hour, and Zillow Changes the World” (I don’t know if this is EARTH changing–but we’ll take the compliment)
- Ryan Stewart says “Sell Your House with Flash“
- Galen at RCG writes “Zillow’s new way to spite your neighbor“
- Marlow Harris at 360 Digest posts “Zillow adds ‘For Sale’ postings and other goodies“
In my search for new blog entries, I’ve been using IceRocket, Technorati, Google Blog Search, and Bloglines. I’ve concluded:
- Bloglines sucks. At 9:54, not a single post has shown up yet. STILL nothing at 10:55
- IceRocket sucks. Same result as above…zero entries
Update: Ok everyone…it’s almost 2 am PST and I’m off to bed. I’ll continue to monitor the chatter tomorrow as much as I can. However, the day after a release is always busy. Please leave a comment if you have a question you’d like to get answered and I’ll get to it as quick as I can.
2006 is the Year of Zillow: The 900 pound AVM has been upgraded to be a free listing platform and the presumptive national MLS system . . ….
The News
An upgrade made tonight to Zillow.com’s on-line home evaluation system will add the following new functionality:
Owners or listing agents for any of the 67 million homes in Zillow’s database will be able to list those homes for sa…
news.google.com is pretty robust; you can search into blogs after the first search into MSM news sites.
Greg-
I am having good luck with Google’s Blog Search. The only two sites mentioned on Google News are GigaOM and Inman (as of 10:15).
You’re right. I get that stuff from a Google update, so I didn’t realize it swapped out to a different service.
drew – cool. this is what we expected from you guys since day one. looking forward to seeing it!

[...] Well, I decided I need to go to sleep anyway, in spite of this very timely blog fodder. So I woke up this morning to a plethora of commentary going on out there in the blogosphere. Some of my favorite thoughts on the topic so far, are from Kevin Boer at 3 Oceans. I see merit in Kevin’s 2.0 approach. Well presented, Kevin. Thanks for doing some of my thinking for me. Otherwise I might have been yelling “the sky is falling, the sky is falling” this morning. OK, not really, but… Drew also is tracking the commentary on his blog. I’ll have to do some reading today. I have a feeling we will be talking about this for a while. [...]

What can I say that hasn’t been said. All the speculation has ended as to what direction ya’ll would take. It rocks. Now, is any of this new functionality coming to the next release of the API?
Mary-
Make sure you feed your ideas as to what you’d like into the feature ideas section of the API forum. We’ll see what we can do for RSS Pieces

I’ll try to give you some more notice next time. I can’t promise anything as far as pre-briefing though.
Rudolph-
Glad you like the feature set!
Congratulations on all of the free buz marketing. You guys are awesome!
Thank you Teresa!!
[...] Geez…MyBlogLog is making all the right moves! I haven’t kept up to date with tech blogs I usually read since Zillow’s Wednesday release, but I just checked TechCrunch and found that MyBlogLog launched support for myspace profiles, which should grow their audience/reach considerably. I do have a myspace profile, but don’t really use the site that much–the experience is just too crappy. However, there are roughly 100 million users using it and people DO want the ability to view who is looking at your profile as this comment mentions. I wonder what approach MyBlogLog will take to raise awareness in the myspace community. As much as I hate to say it, my suggestion to rapidly raise awareness would be to target good looking girls and focus on getting them to place the widget on their profile. Guys don’t really look at other guys’ profiles. The myspace super-users browse around and look for hot girls–so by reaching them you reach all the guys using the myspace. A useful tool will spread via word of mouth VERY quickly…so I’m guessing mybloglog will continue their organic expansion strategy. [...]
