This is an important reminder that ListHub’s feed to the Zillow Group will end effective April 7, 2015. As a result, your members’ listings will no longer be delivered through ListHub to Zillow’s network of websites.
What About Trulia?
Zillow finalized its acquisition of Trulia in February, forming the Zillow Group. The acquisition means an end to Trulia as a standalone company, and thus an end to the ListHub agreement with Trulia. As part of our commitment to the industry, we have made arrangements to continue providing your members’ listings directly to Trulia until April 7, the same day ListHub’s agreement ends with Zillow.
Our Commitment to the Industry and the Brokers We Serve
ListHub will continue to provide brokers with a single platform for listing distribution to more than 150 other websites that we support today. We will continue to provide efficient listing aggregation and distribution within a platform that empowers brokers to manage listing content and analytics in a central control panel. As long as the publisher participants accept our terms that provide protections to content owners, we will continue to provide listing syndication services to them. In addition to 150 national and regional portals, ListHub’s distribution network currently includes industry websites such as those for: the franchise REN, the MLS REN, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Connector products (which feed to franchise “back office” systems for Keller Williams and Realogy brands).
Support for Consolidated Reporting and Analytics
The ListHub platform will also continue to provide the industry’s gold standard in reporting. We will accept metrics from the Zillow group for inclusion in the reports. In order to include these metrics in your members’ reports after April 7, you will need to request them directly from Zillow. Please contact us for information on how to do this. ListHub will keep building the industry’s leading tools for consumer traffic analytics and consumer reports for agents. In fact, we will be incorporating many more data points into the ListHub reports this year! We look forward to continued service.
