Zillow's Gone Public - Makes Big Bucks!

Most buyers start looking on the web when they are considering a home purchase. There are so many websites available that it makes the house hunt a little bit more cozy in the beginning.

Zillow, not one of my favorites, has just released itself public. Just been sold public. Just had it's IPO, Initial Public Offering. And, it kicked butt! Article link below:


Zillow has been around for a while. Picks it's data from public sites and compiles it for generating a lead on a sale or a price value for an existing home. It's got everything you would want....but, it's not always accurate. Realtor.com wasn't always super accurate either, but it's better now. Zillow will get better as well.

So, great that something related to housing has made some nice big cash. Maybe they will be able to hire some more people and cut the jobless rate at bit?????
