Broker Feeds - Coming Soon
By: Jeff Somers, Director, Agent Services | June 14, 2007
Soon, we will be launching the capability for brokers to automatically upload their active listings for free to Zillow, reaching the more than 4 million people who come to the site every month – more than half of whom are in the market to buy or sell.
Even when we first launched the ability for listing agents and brokers to add their listings for free to Zillow last December, we knew we wanted to find ways to make the process even easier. We have talked with numerous agents and brokers around the country — and we have heard over and over that you want to send us listings through a direct broker feed. As I type, our developers are wrapping up work on a very simple tool that will allow brokers to automatically upload listings to the site and keep those listings up to date.
If you’d like to be one of the first to know when you can send us your feed, please follow this link & fill out the form. Just like today, any and all contacts agents or brokers receive from listings — be it email, phone calls, or clicks to their website — are free.
- Stumble it!

Care to tell us a little more about what format you want the broker feed in? I assume sending you an XML feed from a one of your competitors will work?

Will you be accepting FSBO feeds also since you already accept individual FSBO listings?

I can’t wait for this feature to become available. I think it will be incredibly beneficial to both realtors and consumers alike.

Robbie - we may support a few formats but aren’t ready with the details yet.
Havens - TX!
FSBOC - Sellers will continue to post their homes on Zillow for free as they do today but FSBO feeds are not planned for the launch of this feature.
Louisville - Thanks. Please tell every brokerage you know.

I don’t trust thge MLS or even agenst much anymore. Consumers have been forced into foreclosure and are suffering from the old way of doing business. People need to help themselves and it should be free.

Good thing about MLS is it will sell your land sooner.

You can upload your listings in bulk to http://www.brokerfeeds.com and your listings will feed to numerous real estate websites, including Zillow! You only have to upload them once with an Excel file and they will stay out there as long as you want. This means that in one simple step you are feeding multiple listings across the internet. And then you can log in and manage your listing info everyday, in case something changes. Go check it out!
