Zillow Spikes #Zillowfail, Settles with iZillow Developer
Last week Zillow laid the smack down on the developer of the iZillow iphone-optimized webpage (see Zillow for iPhone), demanding that he pull down the site.
Sellsius blog has the low down.
Bottom line. Zillow offered $250 for the domain – which prompted the developer to take his situation to the Internets and spawned a budding #zillowfail discussion on Twitter.
Good news today, however, as the situation seems to have been resolved.
A statement received by this blog this afternoon reads:
We reached an amicable agreement to purchase the URL. I don’t want to discuss the agreed price but it’s more than the $250 he 1st requested.
He can continue to run the site with different branding. Pity this got unnecessarily heated; other than this, Auston seems like a good guy.
Kudos to both parties for being able to come to a friendly agreement.
Now back to zestimating your neighbor’s house.
