Chat With Zillow at Real Estate Connect
By: Drew Meyers Community Relations Specialist | January 4, 2008
A fair number of the Zillow team will be at Real Estate Connect next week in New York. We’d love to chat with as many attendees of the conference as possible — so please come talk to us! We’ll be hanging out in the exhibit hall in booth number D29 for those of you with floor-plan layouts at the tip of your fingers (or just leave a comment and one of us will reach out to you).
Here’s the list of friendly Zillowites attending the conference this year:
- Lloyd Frink - President
- Jorrit Van der Meulen - VP, Partner Relations
- Jeff Somers - Director of Partner Relations
- Mark Eamer - Director Industry Relations
- Sara Bonert - Partner Relations Manager
- Amanda Hoffman - PR Specialist
- David Gibbons - Director Community Relations
- Drew Meyers - Community Relations Specialist
And for fellow bloggers out there, since we had such a great time last year at Beer for Bloggers, we’re sponsoring it again! The party takes place Tuesday night at Heartland Brewery (also known as the Chophouse) from 6pm-8pm.
So whether you have a specific Zillow question, want to discuss signing up for our Zillow Listing Feed program, pitch us on a business development opportunity, discuss the API program, kick back a few beers or just shoot the breeze, come find us. We hope to see you there!
- Stumble it!

When a lender reviews your loan package for approval, one of the things they are concerned about is the source of funds for your down payment and closing costs. Most likely, you will be asked to provide statements for the last two or three months on any of your liquid assets. This includes checking accounts, savings accounts, money market funds, certificates of deposit, stock statements, mutual funds, and even your company 401K and retirement accounts.
If you have been moving money between accounts during that time, there may be large deposits and withdrawals in some of them.
The mortgage underwriter (the person who actually approves your loan) will probably require a complete paper trail of all the withdrawals and deposits. You may be required to produce cancelled checks, deposit receipts, and other seemingly inconsequential data, which could get quite tedious.
Perhaps you become exasperated at your lender, but they are only doing their job correctly. To ensure quality control and eliminate potential fraud, it is a requirement on most loans to completely document the source of all funds. Moving your money around, even if you are consolidating your funds to make it “easier,” could make it more difficult for the lender to properly document.
So leave your money where it is until you talk to a loan officer.
Oh…don’t change banks, either.
