I just received an email from Zillow letting me know that I could now answer questions about my listings that someone may have OR about listings I know about in my area.
Since I hadn't been out to Zillow in a long time, I thought I would go check this out just to see what people are asking. I was quite amused. It seems like one particular person has way too much time on their hands and has posed some "interesting questions" they'd like answers to about a home.
- Is there adequate fencing for my dogs? I have six pit bulls. I also rescue and raise feral cats, but most of them live in the crawl space and the attic.
- Will my family be comfortable living there? I have eight children from three marriages. And each of them has a live-in partner. And a child.
- Can I run my small business from the home? It is a combination halfway house/rehab center/entertainment enterprise.
- Does the house have an old-fashioned dirt floor, or has more modern wood flooring been installed on top of the dirt?
- Are there rectangular openings in the walls that allow the free passage and exchange of air from the outside to the inside? And from the inside to the outside? If so, are these window openings, complete with transparent glass to allow residents with views of the outside?
- Do the walls contain doorways allowing passage from one room to another? And are the doorways fitted with doors hung on hinges, complete with doorknobs?
And that's not all of the questions they asked....there are more!
Good grief, if these are going to be the types of people playing around on there asking questions like this...why even bother?
Are any of you answering any of the "real" questions on there? Waste of time or no?
Have any of you ever sold a listing off of Zillow of received any worthwhile leads from there?
