Using Zillow North Fort Myers Fl for sellers.

Some of the good things:

• Provides greater listing exposure to millions of consumers.
• The addition of tax records, school ratings and other information to listings is good for consumers.
• Levels the playing field.
• Gives consumer access to FSBOs, foreclosures and other non agent represented properties, painting a fuller picture of the available market.
• Creates a new, broadly reaching, advertising platform for agents to advertise their skills.

Some of the bad things:

• A high percentage of their “available” listings are actually sold or off the market. This confuses and upsets consumers and makes listing agents look bad.
• The sites’ property valuations are often way off, making agents’ jobs harder. We have tried to recreate the Zestimate with our data and cannot. In many cases it is much too high or too low.
• Promotes non-listing agents alongside listings that aren’t theirs, tricking consumers into believing they know the property.
• Sells to any agent, regardless of experience, the title of “Premier” or “Pro”.

As a seller of a North Fort Myers property, you want your listings on Zillow but you need to understand, that in and of itself will not sell your property.
