Zestimates to go

Zillow has enabled mobile home searches via SMS.

Or more correctly, they’ve enabled email based searches, which happen to work from most mobile phones using SMS. If you email an address+ZIP or address+city+state to z@labs.zillow.com, you’ll receive a summary of any available information on the given property including its “zestimate” (estimated value based upon comparable sales, assessed value, etc.), number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, square footage, and year built.

Very handy if you’re home shopping, or if you’re a real estate agent, or if you ever wonder “How much is that house worth?” while you’re out about town.

Another cool mobile service brought to you by texting.
