It’s really interesting to see how Zillow is changing their business model infront of our eyes, the foreclosure crisis and this recession have everyone scrambling for something new, that works.

With the launch of the Zillow Marketplace they’re bringing down the information walls between buyer and seller, and let’s hope the community section will be of aid to homeowners facing foreclosure.

Zillow is positioning itself to be a strong merger/acquisitions candidate.

zillow mortgage? didnt know they started a mortgage company.

I like their feature which allows you to add new features to your home to see a more accurate price. It also tells you the recent homes sold in your area….and you can always check to see what your neighbor bought it for!

I encourage everyone to go visit Morgan’s post on Blown Mortgage. He and I are very much on the same wavelength here.

Todd – Excellent job on getting the ball rolling on this intriguing subject. I agree with the folks here who say that there hasn’t been a suitable online gateway for mortgage information for consumers yet. The problems are myriad from misinformation, bait-and-switch and lack of transparency, to name a few.

If Zillow wants to Zillowfy this process they are going to have to eliminate the above problems and rewrite the rules of what it means to be a conduit between the general public and mortgage lenders.

I think Zillow has an opportunity to do that by leveraging the things that it does best and by being the un-lead generator.

I’ve got some ideas myself on how they might do that; but they need to be hashed out in a longer space – so I’ll ping you when I get my thoughts up online.

If you are serious about wanting to save your home, preventing the foreclosure is going to require finding the money to make up all of your missed payments. This will stop foreclosure, regardless of how far along the process is, as most state laws require that your lender accept a full repayment of arrears.

Zillow allows users to see the value of millions of homes across the United States….. this is giant!
