Make it easy for me please!

Just noticed a flyer in the breakroom advertising a house for sale (Reduced!). If want to find out more about the house, it says I have to go online to Zillow.com and search for the address… [pause for thought]
How lame is that?! Too bad Zillow doesn’t give out cool URLs, like http://zillow.com/spacious-living/1234. Or anything you could easily link to and have at least some keyword juice.

Hi, it’s David from Zillow,
Interesting thought - I wonder if sellers will pay for branded URL’s? We do give every home a unique ID (ZPID = Zillow property ID.) I wonder if it would simplify things if we allowed users to search for homes by ZPID.
Great feedback, thank you - I’ll pass this on to the relevant product teams at Zillow.
