Description

Join our mission to give the people power to unlock life’s next chapter. We’re looking for smart, passionate people to join our largely distributed workforce as we reimagine the real estate transaction and change the way people buy, sell, rent and finance their homes.Our homes are the heartbeat of our lives, and we believe that finding a home shouldn’t be so hard in today’s always-on world. That’s why we’re reimagining the traditional rules of real estate to make it easier than ever to move from one home to the next. Our journey began nearly 15 years ago with a handful of employees and one big idea: to make it radically easier for people to move. We began by helping people understand and track their homes’ values with the Zestimate, our proprietary algorithm, and then with advanced technology and valuable connections with real estate professionals. Today, Zillow has become a household name; “Zillow” is Googled more frequently than “real estate.” We believe that the time for a seamless and convenient real estate experience is now. This is Zillow’s next chapter.

What do you like best about Trulia?

What I like best about trulia is that you can search all homes for sale OR for rent to cater to any of your short term or long term needs. You can also search outside of your current area. The "save home" option is very useful so you can compile a list of listings for an easier decision making experience. The website is fast, visually appealing, and easy to navigate. When searching for a specific area, I like that it also shows a map of listings for the homes in and slightly outside of the desired area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trulia?

I would like for trulia to have a more in-depth photo requirement for listings that included interior, appliances, and the neighborhoods. Some listings can be a bit misleading. I also would love the option to view 'private listings' versus 'business listings'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Trulia:

Trulia has become a household name among search engines for rental properties and homes for sale. It is a beneficial site to get your listing in front of a variety of audiences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Trulia solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is very beneficial to see what homes, and apartment complexes are using the site and their availability to analyze any shadow markets that could compete with the property I work for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My buyers like the user friendly experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trulia?

I do not like how it's connected to Zillow and I can no longer access Trulia reports. You cant do anything without paying for it now. Trulia and Zillow do not syndicate listings properly from the MLS either. It shows homes in "pre foreclosure" which is honestly the biggest scam I've ever seen. I can not stand Trulia and Zillow.

What do you like best about Trulia?

Trulia is a really good service for scouting what is available in the area of interest. I have used it as a customer exclusively. My wife and I used Trulia to find housing options and markets of interest when we moved to a new town. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trulia?

Sometimes a created listing can be hi-jacked for phishing scams. What we ran into specifically were duplicate listings for the same property, with misleading pricing. During the process of contacting the owner of the listing, we would often find that the listing would be a scam (someone asking for a check, or some other form of money) from out of town. A google search of the phone number on the listing would quickly identify it as fraud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Trulia:

If you are trying to cast a "wide net" in a new area, or if you are looking to find the most options fast - Trulia works the best. The app is easy to use, and contacting agents with legitimate listings is easy to do. If nothing else - it gives you a great place to start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Trulia solving and how is that benefiting you?

Trulia gets listings and availability out. It is often simply a wide net to cast. It is most helpful in finding an area with the most options. If you're looking for property, Trulia (even with the phishing scams) is a great tool to identify which areas have legitimate listings. Even when weeding through the scams - you are able to find good listings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
