RealBird adopts the Zillow API as part of SearchOnMaps
By: Drew Meyers, Business Development Specialist | August 9, 2007
We’re excited to mention that RealBird integrated the Zillow API as part of their new consumer facing portal SearchOnMaps. The new site helps consumers in three key ways— finding properties for sale, providing instant home valuations and finding real estate professionals in a desired area.
In addition, the site pulls in data from a variety of sources — including Yelp’s new API and traffic from Yahoo’s traffic API — in an effort to give you an overarching feel for what’s happening in your area. To find these filters, click on the “Points of Interest” in the upper right of the search page.
For the real estate professionals reading this, you should also note that RealBird Listing Publisher will now syndicate your listings to SearchOnMaps.com, Google Base, Trulia, Edgeio, Local.com, Oodle, Lycos, Vast.com — for free.
All you API developers out there, keep up the innovation!

Drew,
Thank you for the coverage. To clarify our current Yelp integration, we are using their Geo RSS feed and not yet the newly released API. We had been done with that part before they have released their full API.
Thanks,

It would seem all real estate agents would want to take advantage of RealBird’s FREE Listing Publisher, which allows us to create single property websites, with no limits on photos, content or number of listings.
RealBird will also distribute, at no charge, the listing data to numerous online classified sites.
Free is good.
RealBird + Zillow = Great.

I look forward to see what other developments come out of yelp and the use of APIs in real estate listings search. Keep up the good work.
