What is Zenlist?

Zenlist is an agent-to-client collaborative home search platform that enables efficiencies by putting everyone in the same space. Zenlist's highly optimized mobile app provides clients with the home search experience they expect in today's world while putting the tools agents need to do their job right at their fingertips.


So Zenlist is an app?

Zenlist is a platform available on the web (at Zenlist.com) and via the mobile app for iPhone and Android. To download the app visit: https://zenli.st/tryinstall


Why should I use Zenlist?

Zenlist will put you and your client in a shared space during the home search process, allowing you to collaboratively search for homes, chat, write notes on properties, organize listings of interest, and arrange tours, all in the same platform.

It's also a great tool to use with your sellers to keep them updated on the market, jot notes for them on comparable listings, and to view activity on their own listing.

Your job as an agent becomes easier because of Zenlist's modern mobile app. Easily search for upcoming broker tours and arrange them into a schedule, input and edit listings and open houses/broker tours directly into the MLS from your mobile device (coming soon), have direct access to your client's home search activity at your fingertips, and more.


Is this just another Zillow?

No! Zillow's business model is based on generating leads for agents who choose to pay for leads, and they have a public search site. Zenlist, very intentionally, does not have a public search, because it is not a lead generator; the focus of Zenlist is to provide user-friendly tools and functions that enable the agent and their existing clients to work together more effectively during the active home search process. On Zenlist, agents and their clients will have access to additional inventory and data not available on public sites such as Zillow. It's like combining the information and tools you need from the MLS with what clients want from Zillow and putting it all into a single place.

Importantly: Zenlist does not make money by selling leads to agents.


How do I sign up for Zenlist?

All you need to do is hop on your computer and go to Zenlist.com - click "Try for Free" to create your account or download the mobile app


Does Zenlist cost me anything?

How will I learn how to use Zenlist?

No! While Zenlist is new to SFAR agents, it's been supporting tens of thousands of agents and their clients in some markets for years.
