Why doesn't the owner of the house respond to my email?

Profile picture for Brigitte K.
I'm looking for houses for rent, and when i find one i immediately contact the owner by using the "contact the owner" box on the right hand side of the screen. But nobody ever replys back. what am i doing wrong? are there some other ways to contact the person or do i need other settings? is zillow just a joke???

Perhaps they are having it go to their spam folder and not seeing it?

Check the number of days on Zillow as an indicator.  If the listing is fresh (in the single digits still), there may be a chance.   Not all landlords remove their listings.
