Today, we are launching the final phase of our latest technological rollout that will increase our Real Estate Advisors’ consumer reach to over 78,500,000 a month. Below are instructions on how to get all setup as well as a recap of many of the benefits that our Real Estate Advisors receive as part of our Strategic Alliance with Zillow. As with the rest of the Sellstate Power Suite, this is included as part of Sellstate’s Value Proposition.
Phase 2 Details: Real Estate Advisor Sign Up Instructions
Sellstate Real Estate Advisors:
Situation 1 – You Currently Do NOT Have a Zillow Account:
Taking advantage of all the benefits of the Sellstate and Zillow Strategic Alliance couldn’t be any easier. You simply have to activate your Zillow profile using the same email address that is on file with your MLS.
To review the details of the Sellstate and Zillow Strategic Alliance and activate your profile, visit the Consumer Reach page on SellstateSource.com: http://sellstaterealty.com/source/power-suite/consumer-reach/
Click the “Activate Your Profile” button on this page to be redirected to Zillow and create your profile. Remember, you must use the same email address on file with your MLS for the link to be successful and all benefits activated.
Situation 2 – You Currently Have a Zillow Account That DOES Use Your Email Associated with Your MLS
If you already have a Zillow profile using the email associated with your MLS, then you don’t need to do anything. All of the Sellstate enhancements will be automatically activated on your account.
Situation 3 – You Currently Have a Zillow Account That DOES NOT Use Your Email Associated with Your MLS
If you already have a Zillow profile using a different email address than the one that is on file with the MLS, then you can still take advantage of the benefits. You must log into your Zillow profile and add an additional email in the area provided – add your email associated with your MLS, and your profile will link and the benefits will be activated
