Maui Blog - Georgina M. Hunter R(S): Zillow can be your tool - why not use it?

Hey great article! I look forward to working on this!

Hi Scott - go for it!  If nobody else has claimed your town, it's all yours.

Lyn - thanks for your comments - did you remove them?  I agree with you on certain points about zillow.  I am not inputting any listings, just some pictures and links back to my website and this website... what's wrong with that?

Hi Georgina

Zillow has been good for me. I have used it for about a year or so. Got a couple of divorce lawyers to call me for real estate pricing advice. ha ha. I always like reading your blogs.

Hi Jeffery - nice to see you around!  It's good to see somebody has good things to say about zillow.  I guess it's all a matter of what you put out there.

I stop back to Zillow every now and again.  I admit, I was a little put off by much of the inaccurate info but I say the same exact thing:  "That's why people need agents".  I'll have to check back as it's been a while since I've been there,.

Great post to keep it in our minds. 

Brian - I think you can't have too many links to your own site.... can you?

Georgina - this is a wonderful idea and I am going to check this out! thanks!

Thanks for the post Georgina.  I have heard of Zillow, but have never gone.  Its now on my list of sites to check out.  I think one reason some of these sites take a while to get rolling is because there are so many out there.  I never had a clue how much info was out there until I started looking!  Thanks again!

BJ - Every little thing helps.

Ben - Zillow might be a good thing or it might be a bad thing, but it's how you choose to use it that makes the difference.  Of course I might change my mind on that later.... : )

 

Georgina, Thanks so much for the great information! I am headed to Zillow to check it out! They do have some inaccurate info, don't they? Makes me crazy when clients say "Zillow says" blah blah blah....Thanks again! Elizabeth

Will have to check it out, thanks

Georgina-Hi.....hey how's your e-PRO Course going?  I think you have a great idea.....and whatever Lyn wrote, well I am going to assume it wasn't complimentary to Zillow.  I used Zillow once, and it was kind of fun.  Yes they were off, but I still liked the site.  It's a tool, not the end  all :)

Elizabeth - Might as well give it a try!

Mel - Thank you for commenting.

Kathy - Hi!  I'm over half way through and it's been a breeze.  Thanks for asking. 

Georgia, Something happened that one day & AR was stuck! Posted the same thing 6 times which I removed. Thanks for your comment, I am glad you read at least one of the 6. I did leave one!

 

Hi Georgina - Thanks so much for the helpful tip.  I just checked out my area - Rockland County, NY - and while there are discussions going on, all of the input is from Real Estate Agents.  I think that I can, as you suggested, establish myself as the area expert in mortgages.

Lyn - it's odd - I saw all of your messages in my inbox, but none of them stayed here.  I was hoping that it was you that removed them, and not some unknown entity - a moderator.  I think it was a good comment.  Thanks for coming back.

Steven - well there you go... a change to get your name out there.

Georgina- After Blogging for awhile and reading all these Posts....it is a breeze, but still useful :)  Great to hear......

Georgina, I think the more places we can post that we are the "local expert" the better for our business.

great ideas I will check it out. I do post to Zillow

Kathy - I'm looking forward to getting my designation!  I have learned a few things, and that's what counts.

Gary - I agree - you can never have too much Google Juice.

Anne and Eddie - Just another tool in the tool box.

Brilliant idea,  I have never thought of using zillow that way.  I am currently checking out the discussions boards as I am typing this message!  Thanks

Hi Ryan - good luck with it.  Thanks for coming by.

Georgina - I have my listings on Zillow, but never thought about using Zillow that way.  Another project for the weekend... thanks for sharing all of your ideas.

Thanks for the great idea...I think I will jump on over and see what is going on in my town. Thanks for sharing.

Debbie - Good luck with that.

Terry - This is your chance to be top in your town.
