Austin Real Estate Blog | National Real Estate Review

I'm Lani. I live in Austin, Texas (jealous?). I am the New Media Director of Single Pointe Realty (and AgentGenius.com). I keep this blog as my personal take on the market, the business of Real Estate, and the agents that make up the profession from all over the nation. Because I am not a licensed agent- I write commentary from the unique perspective of part consumer, part insider. Oh, and I have a ridiculous affinity for cheese.

Does this Zillow make my butt look saggy?

Okay, so I read yesterday that Zillow’s CEO, Rich Barton partnered to invest in a new anti-aging website called RealSelf.com. It’s cool to know where Zillow ad revenue (that you paid for) that ends up in employee pockets goes. Drew Meyers spends endless time on microfinancing while Rich funds sites about anti-butt-cottage-cheese products which leads me to ask (in jest)… Hey Rich, does this Zillow make my butt look saggy? Or… Hey Rich, does this cream give me Zillowbutt?

Add your zesty question to Rich in the comments!

I wrote about that on Inman. Pretty funny, but also pretty smart if you ask me. I mean, something like 8000 baby boomers a day turn 60. and I bet at least a third of them have a real estate license.

Lani-
haha - I don’t quite get what “zillowbutt” is, but love your zesty questions. Sorry I’m not witty enough at the moment to think of my own “zesty” Q’s to add…

In all seriousness, as a result of that link to my blog, I just went and tagged some of my older posts dealing w/ microfinance so that my “microfinance” tag has more than 1 article in the archives — my older posts were tagged life or non-profit (I just added the microfinance tag a week or so ago).

[...] first step to overcoming a problem is admitting that there is a problem. Zillow.com, RealSelf.com, Avvo.com, Netflix.com and now GlassDoor.com- is there another website hidden under your bed? Do we [...]

Enduring Bubble Gum

I've interviewed the elite in real estate- bubble gum style....

Bubble Gum Interview- Benn Rosales (My HUSBAND)!!!

A better question is do you think people who say smooth as a baby’s butt have ever changed a diaper? I mean seriously, why do we spend so much time dreaming of being younger or going back in time, or relating to childhood when we really should embrace the “now”. Looking backwards is so “life in reverse.”[…]

Bubble Gum with Kris Berg

Without giving too much away, it involved a party, a Tall Scotch & Water with a Twist (or ten), midnight munchies, a drive-thru window, assorted food products named “Jack” (Bonus, Breakfast), two Super Tacos, a large order of fries and a couple of regrettable hangovers. Steve is such a romantic![…]
