Smart, empowering, surprising, and a little bit addictive, Zillow Talk is a guidebook for any would-be home buyer or seller. It's also an awful lot of fun." -Richard Florida, author of The Rise of the Creative Class, University of Toronto --

Synopsis
How do you spot an area poised for gentrification? Is spring or winter the best time to put your house on the market? Will a house on Swamp Road sell for less than one on Gingerbread Lane? The fact is that the rules of real estate have changed drastically over the past five years.

    When I'd originally placed this order, I had accidentally put in the wrong shipping address. However, the seller was more than helpful, and the CD arrived!! The packaging was wide open when it arrived, but luckily nothing was damaged. Additionally, there was nothing protective on the CD, so that open package made me feel kind of nervous. Otherwise, absolutely great! The customer service was awesome, and the product was as described.

    Item was lost in delivery- but after some communication, seller was understanding and provided a refund. I ordered another and had it sent elsewhere. My main issue was that it felt as if I was getting automated responses at first!! Please have humans review human inquiries!! It was painstaking explaining the situation to an A.I. who only repeats unhelpful replies. Thanks again!! Otherwise. Great price! Great seller!

    Although I received the incorrect book with my order (that had a title close to what I had ordered), AlibrisBooks apologized, said they could not re-send the book, and refunded my money and told me to keep the book that I had received, and either donate it or give it away, so I gave it to someone. That was very kind on their part to do that, and I would highly recommend them. Mistakes happen I get that.

  • Close, but no cigar...

    This book started out as a really great read! There are lots of interesting points, and some really excellent nuggets of advice buried within that can help you buy or sell your home. I especially appreciated their advice on how to choose a good real estate agent. However, about mid-way, the authors get a little too impressed with their own analytics, and the nuggets become fewer and farther between. Let's say you are planning to sell your home, and are looking to purchase a new one. As the authors themselves admit, it won't be possible to change the name of the street you're living on — and yet they spend a full chapter explaining the statistical advantages of certain street names over others. There's an an in-depth analysis of why prices are so high in certain boroughs of New York City, ...
