Zillow app also receives updates, which
include improved navigation on for-sale listings and a way to
simplify financing with the new Zillow Home Loans tab
SEATTLE, Oct. 23,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Zillow® is
launching a big update to the look and feel of for-sale property
listings on its website, improving home shoppers' experience with a
more intuitive and simplified layout.
The enhanced design of for-sale property listings on Zillow.com
offers a wider, single-scroll format, making it easier for home
shoppers to find key information, such as square footage, the
Zestimate® feature, lot size and home type. The new
layout also introduces a media section at the top of the page that
better showcases photos and 3D tours. By clicking on a photo, the
media section expands, providing a full-page, magazine-style layout
for seamless navigation through the rest of the home's
photography.
"The new design delivers a fun and efficient way to browse homes
on the Zillow website, making it easier for home shoppers to
navigate and process information," said Jenny Arden, chief design officer at Zillow. "We
introduced a wider layout for images, larger fonts for the most
important facts and a clearer articulation of what makes the home
special to help our users quickly understand if the home is right
for them."
Zillow's app updates: Navigate with ease and simplify
financing with the Home Loans tab
In addition to the
redesign on the Zillow website, for-sale property listings on the
Zillow app (iOS) are also receiving an update. This new look
minimizes excessive scrolling by allowing users to more easily find
the information that matters the most to them, whether that's home
facts and features, a cost calculator or the Zestimate history.
When viewing a for-sale listing on the app, users will see a new
look that presents the home details categorized into sections such
as "What's Special,"' "Market Value," "Monthly Cost" and
"Neighborhood." Users can click into particular sections of
interest to find more details. This new look will be available
before the end of the year on the Zillow iOS app.
Zillow is also introducing a new "Home Loans" tab on the Zillow
app to help shoppers become buyers. Users can now easily figure out
their budget, connect with a lender, get prequalified with Zillow
Home Loans℠, and track their loan status — all in one place.
"Financing is a critical part of the home-buying process, and
60% of buyers say setting their budget is their first step when
buying a home. With this update, we're helping the millions of
people browsing the Zillow app better understand what they can
afford within their budget and see a clear path toward getting the
mortgage they need," said Matt Daimler, senior vice president of
product at Zillow. "We're already seeing an impact: Customers are
saying it's easier than ever to access and use our financing tools
and get prequalified with Zillow Home Loans."
