Emails are flying around about Zilpy and Zillow…
What does it mean that the new rental valuation site (announced by Inman) is partnered with Zillow?
Speculation is that Zillow may be (at least partially) funding these guys. Anyone from Zillow care to clear it up?

Hey Dustin-
I’m happy to clear things up on this issue. I’ll post a similar comment here that I posted over at ResidentialRentals last week:
To clarify the relationship between Zilpy & Zillow — there is no formal strategic partnership between our companies. Zilpy is, however, planning to use quite a bit of data from the Zillow API (I talked to their founder last week) as they continue to build out their website.
Hope this helps.
