Listed my 500k+ property on Zillow in the hot seller's market and got nothing.. and its on purpose. They act like they are innovative and re-thinking the industry whereas they are 100% only catering to the old agent oligarchy. When you list on Zillow, NOW, it shows only on the 'other listings' unless you come through a listing agent. Nobody clicks that button. Or even pays attention. So,.. since my house does not show on the primary page, I'm now stuck giving 3% of my nestegg to a listing agent where Zillow may have gotten a buyer referral if someone wanted to "contact agent". I just listed with an agent and asked that MLS used but Zillow is NOT. I want NOBODY to even click a button that gives Zillow a commission/referral. What a screwed up system in the U.S. we have.. its the good ol-traditional racket and Zillow is just part of that racket now. And its all about $$$$ .. no innovation, just $$$. It's the good ole boys network over there.
