What is Zillow Showcase? A TrulySD seller guide

When a home hits the market, most buyers meet it on a phone screen first. Zillow Showcase is Zillow’s premium listing experience, built to make that first impression count, with immersive visuals and interactive tools that let buyers explore a home before they ever book a tour.

Worth Knowing

  • Showcase is an upgraded way to present a listing on Zillow, offered through participating agents.
  • Buyers can explore virtually staged rooms, interactive floor plans and an aerial-style SkyTour of the property.
  • Zillow reports Showcase listings get more page views, saves and shares than similar listings without it.

What buyers see

Virtual staging

Buyers can see rooms styled in different looks, such as modern, coastal or farmhouse, and swipe between the staged version and the original photo. It helps people picture themselves in the space.

Interactive floor plans

Floor plans show how the rooms connect, so buyers understand the layout and flow of the home, not just individual photos.

SkyTour

An interactive, drone-style view of the home’s exterior and surroundings that buyers can explore from different angles.

What Zillow reports

According to Zillow, Showcase listings receive 79% more page views, 76% more saves and 91% more shares than similar listings without Showcase (Zillow, September 11, 2025). Every home and market is different, so results vary.
