As much as Zillow.Com can be construed as a "Realtor nightmare" there are some good things that can help us Realtors achieve new business that in this and any market comes in handy. Recently I spoke with a Zillow representative at a NAR convention to tell of my many nightmares I have with my Zillow listings being overwritten by the many websites that have auto-feeds to their site. During this conversation, this Zillow employee gave me a little tip. He asked if I have a Realtor profile on Zillow , which I replied yes. He mentioned by taking photos of homes not listed for sale and uploading and linking them to the corresponding property that the Realtor's profile will be linked to these sites. Apparently a high percentage of homeowners go for their "Zestimate" prior to selling and by having your profile linked, it can give you an advantage. I think its a great idea and I thought I would share it with all you bloggers. Ill gladly take any referrals for the tip...~smile
