One of the contestants in Zillow vs. Realtor.com weighs in

October 20, 2006

Lloyd Frink of Zillow posted a fairly tame account of his panel talk with Alan Dalton et. al. Perhaps the session wasn’t as combative as we were led to believe?

On the substantive issue of Zillow’s future vision, Lloyd reiterated that Zillow has no intention of trying to grab a piece of the transaction:

“We make money by selling ads, and have no plans to divert from this core business model.

This is radically different from another company I helped to start, Expedia.”

Quite the opposite, he sees Zillow as providing a valuable service for both consumers and real estate professionals, whom he says “play an invaluable role in the industry in guiding and advising customers in what is the most important financial decision of their lives.”

He even had nice things to say about the California Association of Realtors:

“As a side note, I think that CAR does a tremendous job collecting and sharing this kind of information [information about how people are using the web to find Realtors].”

I wonder if Alan Dalton will post his thoughts?
