'I thought overhead satellite images were fantastic, until I saw the bird's eye images, which are taken from low-flying planes at an angle which gives remarkable depth,' said Lloyd Frink, Zillow co-founder and president. Additional coverage will be added later this year. Currently, bird's eye imagery can be found on home searches in major cities such as San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, Boston and Las Vegas. The images are shown on Zillow home details pages, alongside satellite maps, parcel information, Zestimate™ home valuations and individual home data.

The images, a first for any consumer real estate site, provide stunning views of a home and its surroundings from four directions, giving home buyers another valuable piece of information about a potential home purchase.
