Zillow doesn't get feeds directly from the MLS's except for two specific areas, so it may NEVER show up!

If your MLS feeds to a broker's website that has an autofeed, it will depend on the sequence of polling for each of the successive syndications.

Zillow polls the syndicating sites every night.

If in doubt, post to a syndicating site to make sure the listing shows up.

By the way, Zillow recently purchased Postlets.com, which is a very popular syndicating site that doesn't charge for posting listings.

By the way, if in a listing on the syndicating site, it is marked "no automated valuations", then Zillow cannot accept the syndication and will reject it as Zillow will not turn off their auto-estimates, as they are needed for calculating median trend data.

Carol, I see you are using a Top Producer Website. A Good Product, but if you were to switch to an A La Mode website it has built-in syndication. We have switched many of our Realtors from Top Producer for that very reason. I am sure they will implement it soon and you might call them and tell them you are considering switching.  Since they partner with Realtor.com they are not as interested in syndication I presume.

Good Luck!

Thanks so much for your help!  I guess I have a little bit of investigating to do. :)
