"We've been working closely with Realogy for the past four months to showcase its ERA brand and drive significant exposure of its listings on Zillow and traffic to its agents and local brokers' Web sites," said Lloyd Frink, Zillow president. "ERA's participation set the tone for the success of our listings feed program in such a short amount of time, and Realogy's decision to include its other brand listings is a great testament to Zillow's value as a marketing partner."

"Our ERA brand has benefited from the added exposure its listings have received on Zillow.com. The expansion of Realogy's marketing relationship with Zillow to include our other brand networks and Company-owned offices was a natural next step in our online listings distribution strategy," said Alex Perriello, president and CEO of the Realogy Franchise Group. "We look forward to having all our brands receive the same level of online exposure on Zillow.com that ERA has enjoyed in recent months."

Property listings under the Realogy brand networks, which include listings from Realogy-owned brokerages operated by its subsidiary, NRT LLC, will be dynamically uploaded to Zillow on a daily basis, providing its brokerages with additional marketing exposure for their properties while enhancing the search experience for Zillow's users. Upon viewing the listings on Zillow.com, consumers will have the option to click a link to the listing brokerage's Web site where they can locate a Realogy-affiliated agent to guide them through the home buying and selling experience.

Zillow Listings Feeds allows real estate brokerages to post for-sale listings directly to the site in a bulk feed, giving the homes a virtual for-sale sign at no cost, in front of Zillow's 4 to 5 million visitors per month. For enhanced exposure, individual agents can create a free profile page with photos, contact information and more details about the agent, linked directly from each listing. Approximately 100,000 agents have created a profile on Zillow to date, which also allows individual agents the ability to list properties for sale.
