Online Real Estate Giant Zillow to Enter Canadian Market.

U.S. online real estate giant Zillow has announced it will post Canadian homes on its site through a direct listing feed from Century 21 Canada.

That means Canadian real estate listings will be exposed to millions of consumers who visit
Zillow every month, the company said in a Wednesday release.

The Seattle-based company announced last year that it planned to feature Canadian property listings early this year. The most recent news release says that it now expects to post Canadian listings, including those from Century 21 Canada, later this year.

“We know U.S. buyers are interested in purchasing Canadian real estate so we’re excited to offer the millions of buyers already coming to Zillow for their home search an easy way to see homes for sale in Canada and connect with an agent to help navigate the sale,” said Errol Samuelson, Zillow’s Vancouver-based industry development officer, in the release.

The agreement is the same as the relationship Zillow has with Century 21 in the U.S., said the Century 21 Canada chief technology officer Jack Miller.
