I thought Zillow is a legit…
I thought Zillow is a legit website/business and they use honesty in their business practices, but I was very wrong. Zillow is like a badly run SCAM business. I had my property listed for sale and was not able to sell it for 2 months. Then, I decided to take it off listing for sale on Zillow's webiste to try to rent it via their website. I made several attempts to contact Zillow via emails and phone calls to have them remove it from the listing and no one contacted me back. In the meantime, I was losing money by paying the HOA fee and insurance, for this property each month. After more than 30 days, I started contacting Zillow again, and then they finally get back to me only via their internal mesaging system. No one from Zillow called me back ever! They did take my property off the sale, but I had to jump through the hoops to get it posted for renting it. They also had my listing posted on their website where people can see my rental with pictures. However, after just 24-hours, Zillow grouped all the properties in this community and to get to my property you had to click on the community's name and my property was listed as the last one. This significantly decreased the number of views of my property and I know that's not how my property was listed in the first 24 hours when people were able to see my property on the initial page. They probably did not make any money off of me, so they changed my listing. Zillow is a terrible business and I hope they start losing money like I lost money because of them. I also believe people who run Zillow publicly misinterpret the current real estate market conditions just to make it look better than what it is since their profits depend on it. Zillow is a SCAM a provides false information on their website and make it difficult for people. Zillow, please do not reply to this message with a cliche" we care about our customers", blah blah, blah becaue I know you do not care.
