Hello S_Khan-

Send me a message with the address of the home in question, and I'll remove the For Sale listing.

Thanks!

Zach

Zillow does not post houses for sale on their own. If you look at the very bottom of your main house page, at the bottom there is section titled "listing provided by" and link or agent name to click on. Click on the "see listing website" link to get to the feed site. 

That agent or company is the one who must remove the listing from being sent to Zillow. If you see a link there that is the person who MUST remove the information. Removing a feed from Zillow take no more than 3 business days from what I read. Send the agent an email giving them 3 business days and tell them if they do not remove it, you will turn a complaint into their board. Make sure and bcc yourself in the email so you have proof that it was sent. 

As an owner, you have a right to have your house NOT listed for sale. This agent needs to get a kick in the pants to remove it and a small claims suit and board complaint if they don't. You also need to google your address to make sure that you are not listed on other RE sites as for sale and ask for any of those feeds to also be removed. I will flag your question so Zillow can try to help, but you have to get the agent to remove the feed or it will pop up for sale when the new feed comes in. Hope it helps.

After doing that find out why it happened, as we have too many homes that are showing for sale on zillow tha are not for sale.  Perhaps since yours is a current problem they can get to the bottom of this and make thier site better and not be bothering people like you and the rest of us.



Thanks so much,

Since the house is listed by an agent, I can't even claim it.

You will want to 'claim' your home as well as call Zillow customer service.  The number to call is  877-815-3918

You can claim your home by logging into your account and underneath the picture of your home there should be an 'edit' button.  You can send an email to zillow or claim the home.

Hope this helps.
