Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Signature Service, Core
Assets Real Estate and Greater Property Group will send
Canadian listings directly to Zillow.com
SEATTLE, Oct. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Zillow®, the leading
real estate and rental marketplace in the U.S., today announced
three new marketing partnerships with Canadian brokerages: Better
Homes and Gardens Real Estate Signature Service, Core Assets Real
Estate and Greater Property Group.
All three brokerages will send a direct listing feed to
Zillow.com to gain free advertising exposure for their listings on
one of the most-visited real estate sites. Zillow now has listing
commitments from seven Canadian real estate companies, representing
more than 30,000 listings in Canada.
Home shoppers from around the world come to Zillow every day to
start their home search. Zillow Group, Zillow's parent company,
operates the largest real estate network on the web, with more than
186 million average monthly usersi.
"With every Canadian partnership we build, the experience on
Zillow will get better for everyone – from brokerages and agents to
the millions of home sellers and buyers who visit Zillow every
month," says Errol Samuelson, Zillow
Group Chief Industry Development Officer. "We believe there's a
massive opportunity ahead to help connect Canadian real estate
professionals and their listings with Zillow's audience, and we're
thrilled by the interest we've received from our partners and their
members around Zillow's plans for Canada."
Zillow has relationships with thousands of brokerages and real
estate agents, and hundreds of MLSs in the U.S., and is expanding
these efforts into Canada.
"We have a great relationship with Zillow in our U.S. offices,
so it was an easy decision for us to decide to work with them in
Canada as well," says Nelson Goulart, Better Homes and Gardens Real
Estate Signature Service, Broker of Record, Owner. "We met with all
our agents to discuss partnering with Zillow and the decision to
join was unanimous. Partnering with Zillow amplifies the reach of
our listings and enhances the consumer experience when searching
for homes."
"As a modern, boutique brokerage we've always positioned
ourselves as a company that focuses heavily on technology and
marketing," says Jordan Rasberry,
Core Assets Real Estate, Managing Partner. "With this partnership,
our home sellers will benefit from the exposure Zillow can provide
to listings on a reliable search platform. Additionally, our
broker's listings will have a competitive advantage with greater
leverage behind them."
"As a growing brokerage, a partnership with Zillow is a
no-brainer for us," says David
Morrell, Greater Property Group, Managing Partner. "It gives
us another platform to bring our offers and incentives to our
clients. The partnership fits nicely with our vision and concept
for the future of real estate in Canada and will benefit our agents, and most
importantly, our clients in the coming years."
All Canadian listings on Zillow will include a description and
photos of the property, and will prominently feature the listing
agent – with contact information – as well as a link to the
brokerage or franchise website. Any agent whose brokerage
participates with Zillow can put a home on Zillow for free and
benefit from the visibility their listing will receive on the
largest real estate network on the web.
