Search Like an Agent!
More parameters
& keep your information private
Why are there so few search parameters on Sites like Zillow?
You may be familiar with the old adage of “Nothing in life is free” and with free Home Search sites such as Zillow and Redfin, that saying is especially true!
These Home Search sites are sales funnels to buyer agents who pay for your attention and information. When you try to contact a home listing, Zillow is giving your information to a buyer agent that will try to win you over as a client. On Zillow, you are the PRODUCT – you are the LEAD being sold to a Buyer Agent.
