The Zillow Gone Wild Instagram page features images of these unusual homes. Some are worthy of an MTV Cribs spotlight, while others are complete head-scratchers because of their lack of logic. We’ve collected a new set of photos for this list that’s part of our previous series. You may see something that catches your eye, whether in amazement or puzzlement. While it still features the castle-like structures that many call home, a lot of these images show outrageous interior designs. “When I decided to start the account, it completely took off from the start,” he said in an interview with Tulsa World. “Then, a few weeks later, Saturday Night Live did a sketch on Zillow, which made me feel like I was really onto something.” “It was, like, prime pandemic. Everyone’s working from home. Companies are saying you can live wherever you want. So people are moving, thinking about moving, or browsing Zillow just as a bored-on-your-phone thing. “I kind of felt like there was an audience of people out there that are also doing this.” “It’s what you say you would do if you’re rich. When you’re a kid you would say you want all these things … they went through with it and did it all.” In a May interview with San Antonio Express-News, she revealed that she had immediately received “more than 100 inquiries” when the listing went viral in October 2023. “This actually brought me income, and it brought me so much exposure. I still get messages via Facebook and Instagram about this.” “I just think it’s interesting to see what’s out there,” she said. “I wish I could find another property with a cave because then I could go back to all the people that wanted a house with a cave.” “I would not necessarily avoid using it,” she said. “I would just be very clear on what to use it for. It will provide for-sale-by-owner properties as well as MLS-listed properties, which is good. However, for any kind of value estimate, it’s terrible.” “One of the worst things is that Zillow is designed to make money by charging agents for showing up on a listing as though they were the listing agent,” she said. “So consumers contact the agent who pops up, assuming that that agent will be knowledgeable about the neighborhood and the house. “Most of the time, that is not the case and the buyer ends up with an agent who cannot properly represent them."
