New Zillow listings as Telegram cards

Whether you are buying a starter home in Columbus or renting near the Loop, the homes that join your own Zillow search reach your Telegram chat while the listing agent still has open showing slots.

3 steps

Set up in a minute

  1. Search on Zillow, sort by newest

    Build the search on Zillow

    Choose For sale or For rent, type a city, neighborhood or ZIP code and draw the area tighter if the map lets you. Set the price range, beds and baths and the home type, then switch the sort to newest so fresh listings sit on top. Copy the link from the address bar.

  2. Copy the link, paste it into mxsender

    Hand the link to MXSender

    Send it to the MXSender Telegram bot or paste it on our website, and keep Telegram as the channel. Email can run next to it if you want an archive. Give the search a short name such as „Clintonville 3 bed“.

  3. New listings land in your Telegram

    Get a card per new home

    Each listing that appears in your results after the first check comes as a Telegram card with the photo, the title, the price and a button that opens it on Zillow. What was already listed on day one stays out of the chat.

Why does the good Zillow home always say pending by the time you see it?

In a tight market a well-priced house can collect several offers over its first weekend, and a sensible rental can fill its showing calendar in a day. If you look at your results once in the evening, you are reading about homes other people already booked to see. The fix is not to stare at the map but to hear about each new listing on your phone soon after it shows up in the search you built.

Being early still needs a next step: a message to the agent or landlord, a showing request, a pre-approval letter ready to attach.

Zillow’s own saved-search alerts and where Telegram cards fit

Zillow lets you save a search and get notified about matches through its own account features, and many buyers use that. MXSender is a different route to the same goal: the alert lands in a Telegram chat you already read all day, with every search in one place and each card tagged so you know which one it came from. Use whichever you like, or both.

Homes for sale and rentals side by side in one chat

Some households look at both at once, buying if the right house comes up and renting for a year if not. Save one search for sale and one for rent; each card carries its search’s hashtag, so a glance tells you which is which. Mute the fallback search so it arrives without a sound and keep the main one loud.

A card is easy to forward to a partner, a co-signer or your buyer’s agent, and the same chat is on your laptop when you sit down to compare.

Before a showing, an offer or a deposit

Look up the property in the county assessor or recorder records to see who owns it. For a rental, contact the manager through a number you found yourself, tour in person or on a live video call, and never wire a deposit or pay in gift cards before that. Application fees exist, but their limits depend on the state. For a purchase, keep earnest money with a title company or attorney you chose, and confirm wiring instructions by phone, since fake closing emails are a known trick.

How many Zillow searches each plan keeps checking

Free covers one search checked every 30 minutes. Starter, $5.99, covers five searches checked every 10 minutes, enough for a couple of neighborhoods in both modes. Pro, $14.99, holds twenty searches with the fastest checks. Telegram and email come with every plan.

❓Frequently asked questions

Does MXSender work for rentals and homes for sale?

Yes. It follows the Zillow results link you give it, whichever mode the search is in.

Will I get the homes that were already listed?

No. The first check marks what is there; only newer listings come as cards.

Can I see the photo without opening Zillow?

Yes, the card shows the photo, the title and the price, with a button to the full listing.

What if I widen my price range?

Change it on Zillow, copy the new link and replace the old one in MXSender.

Can two of us follow the same search?

Forward the cards, or add email as a second channel; on Pro alerts can go to three addresses.
