Zillow is without a doubt the most user unfriendly site I've ever visited!!

I use it as a buyer, not a seller, so maybe sellers have a different experience, but damn. Every time I go there to look at property, it's a bad experience. I can't find features. Things don't make sense. It's a cumbersome mess.

Usually just search address in Google. Then pick the response that looks best, sometimes it's Zillow, sometimes not. Silent Type Feb 13 #3

If i am driving down the road and see a for sale sign, I pull over, pull up the app, and 99 times out of 100 the house is NOT listed as for sale.

Redfin is a little better.

Crazy.

In about 2013 I listed a small family house for sell. Within an hour I had a call saying they really want that house because their best friend lives nextdoor. Sold it pretty quickly.

It's impossible to close the ads on a phone. Instead every attempt to close opens the ad.

Guess I'll be donating.

But like a lot of sites it added unnecessary bells and whistles which just made a mess.
