YOUR HOME. YOUR CHOICE.
Letās get real about portals vs. real pros.
1. Portals donāt sell homes ā agents do.ļæ½Even in one of the hottest markets in 15 years, only 3% of home sales started from a Zillow lead. That means 97% of buyers and sellers found their agent, and their home, somewhere else.
2. 90% of buyers work with agents who search the MLS, not portals.ļæ½Serious buyers rely on real agents with real access.
3. Zillow trains agents to redirect buyers away from your home.ļæ½A listing agentās job is to sell your home. A Zillow lead-agentās job is to sell any home. Their own training scripts literally teach agents to divert buyers from the property they clicked on.
4. Portal views donāt equal results.ļæ½Zillow gets 200M+ visitors a month. But only 4.2M homes sold nationwide in 2024. Most people browsing ⦠arenāt buying.
