Zillow:

Zillow Group, or simply Zillow, is an online real estate database company. A leader in the real estate marketplace, Zillow allows users to search millions of for-sale and rental listings, compare Zestimate® home values and connect with local professionals via the Zillow.com website or mobile app.

Zip:

An archive file format that supports lossless data compression. A .zip file is a”zipped” or compressed file and can contain one or more files or directories into a smaller archived file. Frequently, when you download a file, if the filename looks like this: “filename.zip,” you are downloading a zipped file.  A zipped file takes up less hard drive space and takes less time to transfer to another computer. This is why most large files that you find online are zipped. Plus, many zip software allows for encryption and password-protection for added security. You can also make self-extracting compressed archives that can be sent electronically to others without having to worry about what software they have installed.

To use a zipped file, you will first need to unzip it.  Most zip programs are extremely easy to install and available to download for free or on a free-trial basis for Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. Filezilla, PeaZipWinZip, Zipware and 7-Zip are some popular programs that allow users to zip and unzip files.

Zipware:

A free zip open-source software for Windows and Mac that supports all major archiving formats including the new RAR5 format. Zipware has been designed to be simple, fast and stable to handle both small and large archives with millions of files. Zipware also supports many Linux archive formats such as tar and gzip. A standout feature of Zipware is its integrated virus-scanning. Zipware is free to use, but after downloading the program from Zipware.com, the website invites you to make a small donation to support its ongoing development.
