What to watch out for: If you ask your clients to give a review, they would have to make an account in Zillow which might prove to be a hassle. Also, they do not have a clear description of how they filter reviews so it is likely that you might get a bogus review for your work. Another problem that clients encountered with Zillow is that home prices listed on the website are not always accurate.
What to watch out for: The robot that they’ve created for the website to filter reviews works on its downside too – their faulty algorithm could have half of legitimate and helpful reviews buried.
What to watch out for: There were complaints by realtors mentioning how Trulia promised them with leads from zip codes where the housing market was “hot,” but the site failed to deliver them this promise even after they have purchased leads.
What to watch out for: Some buyers may veer away from properties posted on this site because of the lack of information that could be featured on the site such as crime rates within the area. They also don’t feature photos of the property as much as other websites do.
What to watch out for: If you do use Facebook as a website for getting clients, it’s advisable to have other websites in tow – specifically websites which are mainly used for selling property – since Facebook may cause limitations in terms of presenting the full range of what realtors have to offer.
