I got back to my desk late this evening. I had an Inman News Flash email with a time stamp of 10:21 PM announcing the new features on Zillow. Naturally I thought I would pass it along to the Phoenix resident expert on all things Zillow – Greg Swann. The last two times I tried “helping Greg” by passing something along to him I was surprised to find that he already knew about it. This time I thought it might be different as it was about 11 PM and I knew he didn’t have a paid subscription to Inman News. But just to be sure, I went to Bloodhoundblog to catch up first. As you will see below – if you haven’t already, Greg not only knew all about it – he had known all about it for days<\/em>, and had been interviewed by the folks at Zillow so they could find out what he had to say about it!<\/p>\n

I don’t have all of the correct facts yet, but I received a call last night from my good friend, Marge Lindsay – Bob Wolff<\/a> had called her. Most of today Bob and I played phone tag and I have not spoken to him yet. Bob is the top selling Re\/Max agent whose name I mentioned in my post about Steve Ozonian’s home sale<\/a>. I believe the specific statements I made which are not true are: his house was not located in Laguna Niguel, there was no dispute regarding commissions – in fact Bob Wolff HAD the listing but later canceled it, and it was not a Coldwell Banker agent who later sold the house. I was also told that Steve Ozonian had sent me an email to let me know about this but I did not receive one from him. I did reply via email to a comment from Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
