Zillow hosted a Premier Agent Summit in the company’s home turf of Seattle, and CEO Spencer Rascoff live tweeted the event.
Rascoff’s real time coverage comes on the heels of the most recent industry commotion about the value of Zillow leads, spurred by Gary Keller’s comments at the KW Family Reunion about lazy agents and Internet advertising. Here’s a few snippets of what Rascoff had to say:
