Google and Zillow announce the acquisition at the Realtors Conference and Expo in Las Vegas (NAR).
This video is from the Business Technology & Information Systems Forum: Are You Ready For The Future?
The speakers in the video are Richard Barton (Zillow), Saul Klein (Internet Crusade), Justin McCarthy (Google), Greg Swann (BloodHoundRealty) and Joel Burslem (Inman News).
Google and Zillow discuss how they plan to eliminate the MLS system.
Special thanks for Faith Sedlin from Oodle.com and Dan Daugherty from RentMarketer for helping me brainstorm some over-the-top ideas for this video!

Talk about “BRILLIANT”
Zillow “Guess-Idiots” appear to rely on public tax records that in some cases haven’t been updated in twenty-five years. The zestimator is a sketchy tool to rely on. I believe it’s best to use a Professional Appraiser when valuing real estate.
