alternative<\/h2>\n<p>When you compare Trulia and Zillow, there really isn\u2019t a winner or a loser. Both platforms are incredibly valuable for browsing properties, generating leads, and marketing listings for sale and for rent. However, when it\u2019s time to stop browsing for fun and actually buy, sell, or rent, you need to understand which platform is going to help you the most.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s my breakdown of when it\u2019s best to use Trulia or Zillow. If you are:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A renter looking for a new home:<\/strong> Trulia will give you firsthand insights about each neighborhood and community.<\/li>\n<li><strong>An agent working with buyers: <\/strong>Both Zillow and Trulia can be used to search for properties. However, Zillow has a built-in communication platform and client insights to help you be extra efficient.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A buyer\u2019s agent with clients who are relocating: <\/strong>Trulia has much more in-depth insights on neighborhoods and lifestyles, which will help your clients feel confident about their new home.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Listing a client\u2019s house for sale: <\/strong>It\u2019s not possible to list a home manually on Trulia, but Zillow\u2019s free listing tools will be syndicated with Trulia.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A rental property owner:<\/strong> Although you must list the property on Zillow Rental Manager, it will also be published on Trulia<\/li>\n<li><strong>Looking for buyer leads: <\/strong>Zillow\u2019s advertising platform will help you generate leads from both Zillow and Trulia.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Looking for an agent:<\/strong> Zillow\u2019s Agent Finder will allow you to look through local agents and teams, read reviews, and contact the one you want to work with.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When to use an alternative<\/h3>\n<p>Working with buyers is only part of growing a successful real estate business. If you\u2019re an agent wanting to generate more seller leads, neither Zillow nor Trulia is an ideal option. As an <a href=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/zillow-alternatives\/\">alternative to Zillow<\/a>, consider using a comprehensive platform like Market Leader, which is built to help you attract home sellers. It provides multiple strategies to target sellers in your area and even provides exclusive leads.<\/p>\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n    <a class=\"button  \">Visit Market Leader<\/a>\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"698\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"Lead generation dashboard\" class=\"wp-image-112679 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.brightworksmanagement.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Marketleader-1200x698-1.png\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lead generation dashboard (Source: Market Leader)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"accuracy\">Estimate accuracy: Zillow wins<\/h2>\n<p>Even though Zillow owns both real estate platforms, Trulia and Zillow calculate their home value estimates differently. Zillow\u2019s estimates \u2014 or Zestimates \u2014 come from a variety of data, including MLS data, information that is manually added by agents and home sellers, and from similar properties. Since these sources can sometimes be inaccurate, Zillow\u2019s error rate is about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/z\/zestimate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2.4% on active properties<\/a> and 7.49% on off-market homes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trulia.com\/info\/trulia-estimates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trulia estimates<\/a> are calculated using a &#8220;proprietary algorithm&#8221;, which takes into account information such as location, square footage, property tax information, and recently sold comparable homes. Some states are \u201cnon-disclosure states,\u201d which means that public records don\u2019t always have sale prices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trulia.com\/info\/trulia-estimates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trulia<\/a>, their estimates can be within 5% to 20% of the final sale price. Overall, this makes Trulia&#8217;s estimates less accurate than Zillow\u2019s estimates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few examples of listings with Trulia vs Zillow estimates:<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<table id=\"tablepress-2629\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-2629 tbody-has-connected-cells\">\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"column-1\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/homedetails\/1410-NW-46th-Ter-Gainesville-FL-32605\/42713895_zpid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1410 NW 46th Terr, Gainesville, FL 32605<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n<td class=\"column-1\"><strong>Zillow Zestimate: <\/strong>$483,500<br \/>\n<strong>Zillow estimated payment:<\/strong> $3,416<\/td>\n<td class=\"column-2\"><strong>Trulia median home value:<\/strong> $483,500<br \/>\n<strong>Trulia estimated payment: <\/strong>$3,336<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"column-1\"><strong>Actual sale price:<\/strong> $465,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- #tablepress-2629 from cache --><\/p>\n<table id=\"tablepress-2630\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-2630 tbody-has-connected-cells\">\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"column-1\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/homedetails\/3126-Shamrock-St-E-Tallahassee-FL-32309\/447303864_zpid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3126 Shamrock St E, Tallahassee, FL 32309<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n<td class=\"column-1\"><strong>Zillow Zestimate: <\/strong>$538,000<br \/>\n<strong>Zillow estimated payment:<\/strong> $3,712<\/td>\n<td class=\"column-2\"><strong>Trulia median home value:<\/strong> $538,800<br \/>\n<strong>Trulia estimated payment: <\/strong>$3,591<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"column-1\"><strong>Actual sale price:<\/strong> $520,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- #tablepress-2630 from cache -->\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul class=\"icon-list gray-tb d-flex flex-col list-unstyled ps-0 ms-0\">\n<li class=\"icon-list-item mb-0 relative\">\n<p>\t\t<img class=\"icon-image absolute lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/wp-content\/themes\/theclose\/assets\/images\/icons\/helpful-resource.webp\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<span class=\"list-item-text\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"font-weight-bold\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tRelated article:<br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/how-accurate-is-zillow-zestimate\/\">How Accurate is Zestimate?<\/a>\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"features\">Platform features: Zillow wins<\/h2>\n<p>On the surface, both Trulia and Zillow are real estate platforms with property listings (for sale and for rent), search filters, map searches, and property details. Both platforms also have plenty of resources for buyers, sellers, renters, agents, and even mortgage details and financing.<\/p>\n<p>But with a closer look, you\u2019ll see that Zillow undeniably leads the charge when it comes to additional features \u2014 especially for real estate agents who are growing their business. While Trulia offers incredible neighborhood features on every individual listing and neighborhood guides, Zillow offers tools that go beyond individual listings and neighborhoods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Zillow\u2019s platform is a one-stop shop for home buyers looking for a home and finding an agent, for agents generating and converting leads, for renters looking for their next home, and even for investors wanting to list a rental property and manage their tenants.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a comparison of just some of the features from Zillow vs Trulia:<\/p>\n<table id=\"tablepress-2631\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-2631\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n<th class=\"column-1\">Trulia features<\/th>\n<th class=\"column-2\">Zillow features<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n<td class=\"column-1\">\n<ul>\n<li>Local community input<\/li>\n<li>Lifestyle searches like \u201cpet friendly\u201d or<\/li>\n<li>Continually updated listing and neighborhood ratings for important neighborhood features<\/li>\n<li>Mortgage calculator<\/li>\n<li>Commute destination calculator<\/li>\n<li>Local shops and restaurants<\/li>\n<li>Comparable sales on each listing<\/li>\n<li>Parent reviews of public schools<\/li>\n<li>Local reviews for dog owners and parents<\/li>\n<li>Ability to see homes for rent and for sale simultaneously<\/li>\n<li>Neighborhood guides<\/li>\n<li>Guides for buyers, renters, and sellers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"column-2\">\n<ul>\n<li>Climate details<\/li>\n<li>Neighborhood scores for walkability, transit, and biking<\/li>\n<li>Mortgage calculator<\/li>\n<li>Detailed search filters<\/li>\n<li>National real estate market insights<\/li>\n<li>Zillow Premier Agent for lead generation and advertising<\/li>\n<li>Zillow Premier Agent mobile app<\/li>\n<li>Zillow CRM to manage leads from any source<\/li>\n<li>Free Zillow Agent profile<\/li>\n<li>Free Zillow team profiles<\/li>\n<li>Team management<\/li>\n<li>Local agent and home pro directory<\/li>\n<li>Zillow Home Loans<\/li>\n<li>Financing calculators<\/li>\n<li>Zillow 3D Home<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> app to create <a href=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/virtual-tours-real-estate\/\">virtual tours<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Zillow Immerse for virtual reality tours<\/li>\n<li>Zillow Rental Manager for rental property owners<\/li>\n<li>Zillow rental applications<\/li>\n<li>Agent resource center with guides, scripts, and templates<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- #tablepress-2631 from cache --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"experience\">User experience: Trulia wins<\/h2>\n<p>When you\u2019re browsing properties on Zillow or Trulia, you\u2019ll notice a lot of similarities between listings on both platforms. Both platforms show listing images and important listing information, as well as the ability to contact a real estate agent. However, for users who are starting a search or evaluating individual properties, Trulia definitely stands out for its neighborhood and lifestyle details.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For example, at the top of Trulia\u2019s home listings is a section with \u201clocal information,\u201d including a map of the home\u2019s location, a map of the assigned schools, and local shops and restaurants. Further down in the listing, you can see more details about the neighborhood and even get firsthand thoughts from current residents. Looking at a Trulia listing is like being able to talk directly to one of your potential neighbors.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"886\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"Local input on a Miami Trulia listing\" class=\"wp-image-112690 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.brightworksmanagement.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Trulia-localssay-1200x886-1.png\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Local input on a Miami Trulia listing (Source: Trulia)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Overall, Trulia is easier for home buyers and renters to scroll through and get a full understanding of the property and the area. On the other hand, Zillow\u2019s listings focus more on mortgages and financing. This is probably one reason why Trulia is more commonly used to look for rentals.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tools\">Agent and seller tools: Zillow wins<\/h2>\n<p>This is an easy one \u2014 Zillow is the clear winner for agents and homesellers. In fact, when you have a real estate listing to market, Trulia doesn\u2019t have a platform to upload information or promote the listing. Instead, everything you do to publish or promote your listing must be done through Zillow, and it\u2019s automatically updated on Trulia.<\/p>\n<p>However, as we already discussed, you don\u2019t have to choose between Trulia and Zillow when marketing yourself or a property! Whichever tools or listing marketing strategies you choose are automatically done on both platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the agent and seller tools offered on Zillow (which also apply to Trulia):&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Zillow Premier Agent<\/li>\n<li>Zillow agent profile<\/li>\n<li>Listing analytics<\/li>\n<li>Zillow 3D Home Tours<\/li>\n<li>Zillow Immerse<\/li>\n<li>Zillow CRM<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Pricing\">Pricing: Draw<\/h2>\n<p>The cost of using both Trulia and Zillow as a user is completely free. For real estate professionals who want to leverage the platforms to grow their business, the seller tools offered through Zillow Premier Agent require an investment. Since Trulia doesn\u2019t offer any unique or separate programs, its pricing structure is exactly the same as Zillow\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Although the price of being a Zillow Premier Agent depends on a variety of factors like your location, average prices of homes, and competition, our research found that Zillow leads usually cost between $20 and $75 each.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"icon-list gray-tb d-flex flex-col list-unstyled ps-0 ms-0\">\n<li class=\"icon-list-item mb-0 relative\">\n<p>\t\t<img class=\"icon-image absolute lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/wp-content\/themes\/theclose\/assets\/images\/icons\/helpful-resource.webp\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<span class=\"list-item-text\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"font-weight-bold\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tRelated article:<br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/zillow-premier-agent-worth-cost\/\">Zillow Premier Agent 2025: Is it Worth the Cost?<\/a>\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"methodology\">Our methodology<\/h2>\n<p>At The Close, we have a specific <a href=\"https:\/\/theclose.com\/methodology\/\">methodology<\/a> to give you the most accurate information from real estate experts.
