Whether you are a customer looking for a home or an agent using a Zillow website, you have the right to know the good, the bad and the ugly about Zillow. Unfortunately, there is a lot more bad than good and it turns out that you are better off NOT using Zillow for these 7 reasons...

1. 7 Good Reasons NOT To Use Zillow

2. 


Listings are notoriously outdated / inaccurate
36% of the “active” listings on Zillow we no
longer for sale on the local MLS
Zillow only shows 79% of the homes for sale
showcased on the local MLS

3. 


Nothing on Zillow is designed to make you
stand out
Plain and monotonous design
Makes you (as a real estate agent) look like
just another agent in the crowd chasing the
low-end market

4. 

Zillow does not have enough lead generation
tools
Want to be able to see the communities a
client has perused, the searches they made
and how long they watched a video before
contacting you? Take a look at this:

5. 

Your personal Zillow site won’t make it to the
top of search engine results
You need to be able to use your own content

6. 


Zillow’s links pull visitors away from your
website
They allow advertising that you don’t control
These ads could potentially feature YOUR
competitors

7. 


…Or should I say a lack thereof?
Their “Priority Customer Service” is a web
form with no telephone number or email
address
Could take weeks for them to respond to you

8. 


Zillow’s mobile website is difficult and not at
all user-friendly
Zillow does not utilize “Responsive Web
Design”
Without RWD, your site (and by implication,
your entire business) is obsolete

9. The cutting-edge technology that Brilliant
Agent offers exclusively to real estate agents
ensures that your websites will not have
problems like the ones made by Zillow.
