Upgrade to Premier Agent Status at Zillow.com

Posted 05/19/2010 by Rob Schmaus

I would like to introduce to you the Zillow.com premier agent program. In my continuing attempts to keep my clients on the cutting edge of modern real estate marketing strategies and techniques, I have decided to align myself with Zillow.com.

Zillow.com is constantly developing new ways to make real estate searching and buying easier for the consumer. This is why I have partnered with them. I would like to share with you a few of the reasons I feel so strongly about Zillow and their goals for developing their company:

-Zillow’s mobile apps are far and away leading the industry in mobile real estate applications. Combined, the Zillow iPhone App and Zillow on iPad have more than 1,100,000 downloads from iTuness, making each the #1 real estate app on their respective platforms. The Zillow Android App has been downloaded more than 200,000 times since its launch in March 2010.
-The 'Zestimate' is a constantly evolving and refining mathematical algorithm that has become more and more reliable over the past 2 years.
-Over 10 million separate people visited the website in April 2010
-90% of Zillow users own a home, and two-thirds are either actively buying or selling, or plan to within 12-24 months.
-Over 72 million U.S. homes have been viewed on Zillow – that’s 75% of all homes in the country. In some cities, more than 90% of all homes that exist have been viewed on Zillow-- including those in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston and Seattle.
-Nearly two million homeowners have claimed their homes on Zillow and 19 million homes have edited home facts.

My partnership with Zillow will allow my clients far greater online exposure to a well qualified audience of buyers. My new Premier status takes that exposure well beyond what a non Premier agent can provide to their clients.
