Buyers want a house; Sellers want a buyer

By ARDELL

The National Association of Realtors held their Mid-Year conference this week. Often the Mid-Year Conference kicks up more dirt than the Annual event, as the Mid-Year conference focuses more on the business end and the mls issues (legislative sessions).  Less partying…more in depth issue discussions. The big new issue is about Trulia and Zillow and... »

Zillow widens gap on Trulia, traffic soars to 7.5 million visitors

By Jon Ribary

Thanks to John Cook at TechFlash for the article (and picture).  I overheard Rich Barton talking to some friends a couple weeks ago at a TechFlash Launch Party talking about the record number of hits they were receiving. I guess using Zillow today, was like watching the NASDAQ 8 years ago. »
