Extension summary

Better Zillow allows you to turn the maps on Zillow.com into full screen, real estate maps.

It helps optimize Zillow for the larger screens found on desktop and laptop computers.

The larger interface helps in the following ways:

    1. Location. Location. Location. You can focus more on real estate locations instead of real estate listings.
    1. Stop letting your screen go to waste. Utilize more of your computer screen.
    1. Spy on your neighborhood. Now you can quickly and easily find out what property values are in your current or potential area.
    1. Track property sales. Quickly visually what parts of your neighborhood, city or state are experiencing recent sales.

TIPS

  1. Log into your Zillow Account prior to using the extension if you plan to save properties.
  2. Use the search tool to view recently sold properties in your area by selecting the "Sold" filter from the top search bar.

So far so good. Very frustrating that Zillow has crippled their website. This extension seems to make it usable again! Thanks!

I emailed Zillow about this incredibly frustrating issue a couple years ago and received no response. This extension is incredible. Thank you for doing what Zillow should have done a long time ago!!!

Looking at the source code, this extension just adds a CSS style sheet to zillow.com, so at least version 0.0.0.1 isn't doing anything sketchy. The full-screen map is very useful.
