    Zillow could be the king of the road within a year or two.

    When they went public 1.5 years ago they had 20 mobile views per second. Now they have 75 views per second on mobile devices.

    The others won’t be able to keep up, except maybe Redfin.

    This is the way everything is going to go. Cloud Bases Web apps that are fast efficient, have back end support by professionals making life easier for buyers/ sellers and agents. Only a matter of time before Process map incorporates Title and Lending services.
