Have you seen their numbers? I’m impressed. Looks like they came through that inital rough patch with barely a scratch. I hear about them everywhere it seems. Newspaper, local news, co-workers, in-laws. I’ll have more to say about the response to Zillow.com in the real estate community in a future post.

"Hey, these people want to spend this much on this house, so make sure the appraisal is for that much. Who cares if it's not worth that much, we have to hit our numbers." Only kidding. That never happens, I'm sure. We're still a month away from close, so it's too early for that at this point. I'll update when we get those numbers back. Should be within the next couple weeks.

After all they're the ones the lenders listen to. I’d be curious to know what the appraisers said the houses were worth. After all they’re the ones the lenders listen to.

I'm sure they'll recover in time, and I agree, the glimpse I caught did look pretty cool. Indeed, give them some credit for being transparent and making light of the situation.

Looks pretty snazzy. At least they wrote a cute haiku message about the outage:
A great site has stalled
Zillow sighs with frustration
Please come back later
