Any time Zillow is in the news for business acquisition or for rolling out a new online feature, some real estate agents hit the panic button. A quick look at any Zillow-related Facebook comment section reveals agents’ fears about Zillow taking over, controlling the home buying and selling process, stealing data and ultimately putting them out of business. But I’m not afraid of Zillow. Here’s why:

Six years ago, we published an article that predicted what a day in the life of a U.S. real estate agent would look like in 2020. (Read the original post here.) We imagined a life where our daily routines were interconnected and assisted with the newest technology.

Let’s clear up any confusion.
Yes, I recruit agents. I am always on the lookout for incredible talent to join our company.
Yes, I think we have the best tools, support, and programs available to help any real estate agent out there take their business to an even higher level. Yes, I am fully aware that my opinions regarding the merits of our company are utterly biased.

Now that this is cleared up let’s dive into the goal of this post.

I was heartbroken but happy to hear that she’ll be moving out of the area, and because of this, wouldn’t consider leaving her current company. In fact, the national headquarters of her company is in the state she is moving to. As a result, any hope of recruiting her has been completely shattered.
