Statement regarding forward-looking statements

This report includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations of future events based on certain
assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this report, including statements regarding our future financial position,
business strategy and operations, and plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. The words believe, may, will, should, could, estimate,
continue, anticipate, intend, expect, plan, potential, predict, project, designed, provides, facilitates,
assists, helps and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, statements relating to:



| |  |  | trends in the residential real estate market, the market for mortgages, and the general economy;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our future financial results;
| | - |  | -----------------------------



| |  |  | our future growth and expansion;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | our future advertising and marketing activities; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our future investment in technology.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------

We have based these forward-looking statements principally on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial
trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking
statement.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those
described in Risk Factors in Item 1A of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as such disclosure may be revised under Risk Factors in Item 1A of Part II of
this report. Readers should carefully review such cautionary statements as they identify certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements and from historical trends. Those
cautionary statements are not exclusive and are in addition to other factors discussed elsewhere in this report or in materials incorporated herein by reference.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this report may not
occur and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by law, we do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statement contained in this report.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the three months
then ended have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Companys management, the
unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements, and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation
of the Companys financial position for the periods presented. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010, or any other
period. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and reflect the elimination of
intercompany accounts and transactions.

Seasonality

The Companys net transaction revenues and income (loss) from operations have historically varied from quarter to quarter. Such
variations are principally attributable to variations in home sales activity over the course of the calendar year. The Company has historically experienced lower net transaction revenues during the first quarter because holidays and adverse weather
conditions in certain regions typically reduce the level of sales activity and listings inventories between the Thanksgiving and Presidents Day holidays. Net transaction revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008
accounted for approximately 17.7% and 19.1% of annual net transaction revenues in 2009 and 2008, respectively.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING
PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to the disclosure requirements for fair
value measurements and provides clarification for existing disclosures requirements, which amends the use of the fair value measures and the related disclosures. This new guidance requires new disclosures for transfers in and out of Level 1 and
Level 2 fair value measurements. The Company adopted the provisions of this new guidance during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and its adoption did not have any significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.

3. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

At March 31, 2010, short-term investments were classified as available-for-sale securities, except for restricted cash, and were
reported at fair value as follows:

At March 31, 2010 the fair value of the
Companys investments that had been in an unrealized loss position for over twelve months was $1.9 million and the related unrealized loss was approximately $86,000. The Company evaluates its investments periodically for possible
other-than-temporary impairment and records impairment charges equal to the amount that the carrying value of its available-for-sale securities exceeds the estimated fair market value of the securities as of the evaluation date, if appropriate. The
Company considers various factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis and the financial condition of the issuer. The Company has no requirement or intent to sell the securities and expects to recover
up to (or beyond) the initial cost of the investment. The evaluation of asset and mortgage backed securities involves many factors including, but not limited to, lien position, loan to value ratios, fixed vs. variable rate, amount of
collateralization, delinquency rates, credit support, and servicer and originator quality. Based on its evaluation, the Company has determined that the unrealized loss is temporary and, accordingly, no impairment charge on investments has been
recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The factors evaluated in this determination may change and an impairment charge may be recorded in the future.

The estimated fair value of short-term investments classified by date of contractual maturity at March 31, 2010 was as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the accounting standards establishing a fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in valuation techniques.
There are three broad levels to the fair value hierarchy of inputs to fair value; Level 1 is the highest priority and Level 3 is the lowest priority. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy and are as follows:



| |  |  | Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2: Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or the liability, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the Companys own assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These
assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company measures and reports certain financial assets at fair value on a recurring basis, including its investments in money market
funds and available-for-sale securities. At March 31, 2010 there were no liabilities within the scope of the accounting standards.

At March 31, 2010, our available-for-sale short-term investments, measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the
fair value hierarchy were as follows:

5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE

Valuation assumptions and stock-based compensation expense

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options on the day of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which incorporates
various assumptions including volatility, expected life and interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Companys common stock and consideration of other relevant factors such as the volatility of
guideline companies. The expected life of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was estimated by taking the average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the option. The risk-free interest rate estimate
is based upon U.S. Treasury bond rates appropriate for the expected life of the options.

The assumptions used and the
resulting estimates of weighted average fair value per share of options granted were as follows:



|                                                                 |  |                              |  |

The accounting standards require forfeitures to be
estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company estimated expected forfeitures based on various factors including employee class and historical experience.
The amount of stock-based compensation expense has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. As of March 31, 2010, there was $5.3 million of unrecorded stock-based compensation, after estimated forfeitures, related to unvested stock options.
That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining recognition period of 2.7 years. As of March 31, 2010, there was $0.8 million of unrecorded stock-based compensation related to unvested restricted stock. That cost
is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining recognition period of 1.0 years.

Options generally vest over a four-year period with one-fourth (1/4) of the shares vesting
one year after the vesting commencement date, and an additional one-forty eighth (1/48) of the shares vesting on the first day of each calendar month thereafter until all such shares are exercisable. Options generally expire after ten years.
Options issued pursuant to the Companys voluntary stock option exchange program, completed in July 2009, vest ratably over a 36 month period and expire after seven years.

Aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the Companys closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal
period, which was $4.90 on March 31, 2010, and the exercise price for the options that were in-the-money at March 31, 2010. The total number of in-the-money options exercisable as of March 31, 2010 was 935,000. Total intrinsic value
of options exercised was $57,000 and zero for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Restricted Stock

The Company expenses the cost of restricted stock awards, which is determined to be the fair market value of the shares at the date of
grant, ratably over the period during which the restriction lapse. Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $184,000, and $214,000, respectively.

6. INCOME TAXES

At the end of each interim period, the Company calculates an effective tax rate based on the Companys best estimate of the tax
provision (benefit) that will be provided for the full year, stated as a percentage of estimated annual pre-tax income (loss). The tax provision (benefit) for the interim period is determined using this estimated annual effective tax rate.

The Company maintains that a full valuation allowance should be accounted for against its net deferred tax assets at
March 31, 2010. The Company considers its ongoing performance, recent historical losses and expectations for the foreseeable future, among other things, in determining the need for a valuation allowance.

Based on the full valuation allowance and the taxable loss for the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company has not recorded a
tax provision or benefit.

7. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Comprehensive income (loss) for the
periods indicated is comprised of the following:

Legal proceedings

On March 26, 2010, the Company was named as one of fourteen defendants in a law suit filed in United States District Court for the
District of Delaware, Smarter Agent LLC v. Boopsie, Inc., et al., by plaintiff, Smarter Agent LLC. The complaint alleges that the defendants have each infringed on patents owned by Smarter Agent relating to mobile device application
technology and seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief. Company is in the initial stages of investigating this matter, but does not currently believe that it has infringed on any patent, or that it has any liability for the claims alleged
and thus, intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.

On January 22, 2010, the Company was named in a class
action lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Alameda, Elizabeth Williams v. ZipRealty, Inc., et al., by a former employee agent of the Company. The complaint sought monetary relief and alleged, among other things, that
the Companys practice of classifying agents as exempt employees pursuant to the outside salesperson exemption under California law, and compensating agents accordingly, violates applicable law regarding the payment of minimum wages
and overtime. The Company filed a counter claim against Plaintiff Elizabeth Williams alleging, among other things, that Ms. Williams engaged in conduct violating her employment agreement with the Company. On March 16, 2010, the
parties entered into a settlement of these claims whereby each party agreed to dismiss its claim against the other. The parties have each filed dismissals of their claims.

The Company is not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings. From time to time, the Company has been, and it currently
is, a party to litigation and subject to claims incidental to the ordinary course of the business. The amounts in dispute in these matters are not material to the Company, and management believes that the resolution of these proceedings will not
have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Indemnifications

The
Company has entered into various indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of our business. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse the indemnified parties, which include certain of our
service providers as well as others, in connection with certain occurrences. In addition, the corporate charter documents require the Company to provide indemnification rights to the Companys directors and officers to the fullest extent
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, and permit the Company to provide indemnification rights to our other employees and agents, for certain events that occur while these persons are serving in these capacities. The Companys
charter documents also protect each of its directors, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, from personal liability to the Company and its stockholders from monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a
director. The Company has also entered into indemnification agreements with the Companys directors and each of our officers with a title of Vice President or higher. Further, the underwriting agreement for the Companys initial public
offering requires the Company to indemnify the underwriters and certain of their affiliates and agents for certain liabilities arising from the offering and the related registration statement.

The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is
unspecified. The Company is not aware of any material indemnification liabilities for actions, events or occurrences that have occurred to date. The Company maintains insurance on some of the liabilities the Company has agreed to indemnify,
including liabilities incurred by the Companys directors and officers while acting in these capacities, subject to certain exclusions and limitations of coverage.

OVERVIEW

General

We are a leading full-service residential real estate brokerage that uses an innovative combination of a comprehensive online presence,
robust proprietary technology and knowledgeable local agents in the field to offer our clients fast, responsive and transparent service. Our award-winning, user-friendly website gives our users access to comprehensive local Multiple Listing Services
home listings data, as well as other relevant market and neighborhood information and tools. Our proprietary technology, including our agent platform and customer relationship tools, helps us to enhance customer service while increasing agent
efficiency and reducing costs, allowing us to pass on significant savings to consumers as permitted by law.

We have grown our business rapidly since our inception in 1999. In 2009, we ranked as the
5thlargest residential real estate brokerage in the
nation as ranked by closed transaction sides, accordingly to REAL Trends. Also in 2009, our website received more traffic than any other residential real estate brokerage in the nation, according to Hitwise. As of May 1, 2010, we
operated in 35 major markets serviced by our team of over 3,000 local, licensed sales agents, and we had approximately 2.6 million active registered users who had accessed our website within the last year. All of our markets were opened prior
to 2009 with the exception of Portland, which we opened in April 2009. Depending on market conditions and other criteria, we may consider entering additional markets in the future.

We typically share a portion of our commissions with our buyer clients in the form of a cash rebate, and typically represent our seller
clients at fees below those offered by most traditional brokerage companies in our markets. Generally, our seller clients pay a total brokerage fee of 4.5% to 5.0% of the transaction value, of which 2.5% to 3.0% is paid to agents representing
buyers. In the Oregon portion of our Portland market (which serves portions of both Oregon and Washington), the payment of cash rebates is not currently permitted by law, so we have adjusted our value proposition for our buyer clients by offering an
enhanced client satisfaction guarantee.

Our agents show properties to our buyers, list and market properties for our sellers,
negotiate transactions and handle closing details. In most of our markets, our agents are employees to whom we provide training, marketing support, technology, customer leads and other employee benefits not typically provided by most residential
real estate brokerages. However, in February 2010, we ceased to employ agents in New York, and instead engaged agents as independent contractors in that state. We plan to do likewise in Nevada beginning in June 2010. Through our modified business
models in those states, we hope to deliver excellent customer service and enable independent contractor agents to be productive and efficient with minimal management oversight. We currently do not have plans to make a similar change in other
markets, although we continually evaluate all aspects of our business and operational model and could make similar or different changes in other markets in the future.

Our net revenues are composed primarily of commissions earned as agents for buyers and sellers in residential real estate transactions,
and we operate in one reportable segment. We record commission revenues net of any rebate, commission discount or transaction fee adjustment. Our net revenues are principally driven by the number of transactions we close and the average net revenue
per transaction. Average net revenue per transaction is a function of the home sales price and percentage commission we receive on each transaction and varies significantly by market. We also receive revenues from certain marketing arrangements,
such as with mortgage lenders to whom we provide access through the mortgage center on our website, who pay us a flat marketing fee that is established on a periodic basis, as well as from relationships with advertisers. Generally, non-commission
revenues represent less than 5% of our net revenues during any period. We routinely explore options for entering into additional marketing and other business arrangements for offering services related to the purchase, sale and ownership of a home.

We believe that customer acquisition is one of our core competencies, and although the difficulty of acquiring a sufficient
number of leads online could increase over time, we expect that we can mitigate some of that impact with repeat and referral business, as well as by increasing our visibility and credibility to potential clients over time. Because our aggregate
transaction volume market share in our markets has averaged less than 1% historically, we believe that there is an opportunity to increase our market share and grow our business, even if the overall level of sales do not grow due to macroeconomic
conditions.

Market conditions and trends in our business

Macroeconomic forces.For the past few years, the residential real estate market has been negatively impacted by macroeconomic
conditions. We perceive that conditions such as tight lending criteria, high numbers of distressed properties, and high unemployment continue to exert negative pressure on the residential real estate market, and may continue to do so for some time.
Although the federal government, state governments and related agencies have acted repeatedly to address the decline in the residential real estate market and the availability of home mortgage credit, there can be no assurance that these activities
will have a positive, meaningful and lasting impact. In addition, as these activities end, including the federal governments wind-down of its program to purchase troubled assets from financial institutions, the availability of credit and
interest rates could be negatively affected. For 2010, we currently believe that the health of the residential housing market will be significantly affected by the availability of credit, shadow inventory levels, and interest rates, all of which
could be negatively impacted by high unemployment levels.

Current residential real estate market conditions.Although
the residential real estate market has begun to show some signs of price stabilization, it remains volatile and unpredictable both nationally and regionally. Federal tax credit programs designed to encourage home buyers have been extended into 2010,
but the expiration of these programs, and any future rise in interest rates in keeping with our current expectations, could deter future home buyers.

Current indicators of national market conditions include the following:



| |  |  | Volume: According to the National Association of
REALTORS®, or NAR, existing home sales for March 2010 rose 16.1% from March 2009, with sales rising above
prior-year levels in all major regions of the country. March 2010 represented the ninth straight month of sales volume increase over prior-year levels nationally. Although the current federal tax credit program for first-time homebuyers likely
helped sales late in the first quarter of 2010, we expect that program to play a greater role in bolstering sales in the second quarter of 2010; please see discussion below under Fluctuations in quarterly profitability. In addition, home
buyers were also bolstered by low mortgage rates. According to Freddie Mac, the national average commitment rate for a 30 year conventional fixed-rate mortgage reached a record low in the fourth quarter of 2009 and remained near this record-low
level in the first quarter of 2010.

| |  |  | Price: According to NAR, in March 2010, the median existing home sales price remained relatively flat from March 2009, increasing by 0.4%. We
believe that some of this price stabilization was caused by the stabilization in the transaction mix with respect to distressed properties, as discussed below, and any future shift in the transaction mix back towards distressed properties could have
a negative impact on prices. In addition, we perceive that overall prices continue to be negatively impacted by the tight lending criteria for non-conforming jumbo loans and the resulting constriction of the market for higher-priced
homes.

| |  |  | Inventory: According to NAR, the total inventory of homes available for sale decreased by 1.8% from March 2009, representing the
20thstraight month of inventory decrease from prior-year
levels. According to NAR, foreclosures have been feeding into inventory at a fairly steady pace, which we believe has helped to support inventory levels. As discussed below, we expect that more distressed properties may enter the market in 2010,
which should increase inventory levels.

| |  |  | Distressed Properties: Currently, a significant percentage of our sales transaction volume is composed of distressed properties. Distressed
properties are homes that are in foreclosure, are bank owned (or REO), or are short sales, meaning a sale where the sale price is less than the loans or debt secured by the home listed for sale. In the first quarter of 2010, the
percentage of our sales transactions composed of distressed properties was approximately 37%, which was more than the 33% realized in the fourth quarter of 2009 but substantially lower than the peak of 53% realized in the first quarter of 2009. We
currently expect that this percentage may rise again in 2010, particularly as banks expand their efforts to sell shadow inventory through short sales, as discussed below. Distressed properties not only tend to sell at reduced prices, but they also
tend to put downward pressure on the values of other homes for sale in the same and nearby neighborhoods. We expect distressed properties to continue to represent a significant portion of the residential real estate market and of our business in the
foreseeable future.

| |  |  | Shadow Inventory: Shadow inventory refers to distressed and other properties that have not yet been listed for sale, as well as
properties that homeowners wish to sell, but will not sell at current market prices. Shadow inventory can occur when lenders put REO properties (properties that have been foreclosed or forfeited to lenders) on the market gradually, rather than all
at once, or delay the foreclosure process. They may choose to do so because of regulations and foreclosure moratoriums, because of the additional costs and resources required to process and sell foreclosed properties, or because they want to avoid
depressing housing prices further by putting many distressed properties up for sale at the same time. It is difficult to assess the current volume of shadow inventory and its future impact on the residential real estate market. Recently, we have
perceived a change in the handling by banks of distressed properties, whereby banks appear to be pursuing more short sales potentially to avoid the foreclosure process. We believe this trend will continue through at least the remainder of 2010 due,
in part, to the federal Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program, or HAFA, which is currently scheduled to run from April 5, 2010 through the end of 2012. HAFA was designed to promote the use of short sales instead of foreclosures for
certain borrowers by offering incentives to lenders and by streamlining the short sale process. If this trend towards short sales continues, it should help reduce the backlog of shadow inventory as these homes are introduced for sale on the market
and become true inventory.

Fluctuations in quarterly profitability. We have experienced
fluctuations in profitability from period to period. Our profitability has been impacted by various factors including seasonality, new market expansion, legal settlements, government activism and ongoing market challenges, including changes in the
availability of home mortgage credit.

For example, in 2009, the federal government introduced a program to provide a tax
credit of up to $8,000 to first-time home buyers, meaning, for this purpose, buyers who had not owned a home in the preceding three years. That program had been set to expire on November 30, 2009. We believe many first-time home buyers chose to
accelerate their home purchases to take advantage of the credit before it expired, which may have bolstered sales volume in the fourth quarter of 2009 and then reduced sales volume after the planned expiration date for the program.

In November 2009, before the tax credit program expired, the federal government extended and expanded the program. In its current form,
the program offers a credit of $8,000 to first-time home buyers and up to $6,500 to repeat home buyers who have lived in their current home for five consecutive years in the past eight years. To take advantage of the current program, buyers must
have entered into a home purchase contract by April 30, 2010, and complete the purchase by June 30, 2010. Once again, we expect that this program may have a positive effect on our home sales volume in the first half of 2010, particularly
in the second quarter, but may also result in fewer sales than we otherwise would have closed in the second half of 2010.

Industry seasonality and cyclicality. The residential real estate brokerage market is influenced both by seasonal factors and
by overall economic cycles. While individual markets vary, transaction volume nationally tends to progressively increase from January through the summer months, then gradually slow over the last three to four months of the calendar year. Revenues in
each quarter are significantly affected by activity during the prior quarter, given the typical 30- to 45-day time lag between contract execution and closing for traditional home purchases. For non-traditional sales, the time lag from contract
execution to closing can be longer. We have been, and believe we will continue to be, influenced by overall market activity and seasonal forces. We generally experience the most significant impact in the first and fourth quarters of each year, when
our revenues are typically lower relative to the second and third quarters as a result of traditionally slower home sales activity and reduced listings inventory between Thanksgiving and Presidents Day.

The impact of seasonality can be masked by the general health of the residential real estate market at any given point in time, whether
affected by macroeconomic events, periodic business cycles or other factors. Generally, when economic times are fair or good, the housing market tends to perform well. If the economy is weak, if interest rates dramatically increase, if mortgage
lending standards tighten, or if there are disturbances such as terrorist attacks or threats, the outbreak of war or geopolitical uncertainties, the housing market likely would be negatively impacted.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of
these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and
assumptions. Accordingly, our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our
significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and of those policies, we believe that the following accounting policies
are the most critical to understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

Revenue recognition

We derive the majority of our revenues from commissions earned as agents for buyers and sellers in residential real estate transactions.
We recognize commission revenues upon closing of a sale and purchase transaction, net of any rebate, commission discount or transaction fee adjustment, as evidenced when the escrow or similar account has closed and funds have been disbursed to all
appropriate parties. We recognize non-commission revenues from our other business relationships, including marketing agreements, advertising, referral and other income, as the fees are earned from the other party. We recognize revenue only when
there is persuasive evidence an arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable, the transaction has been completed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Internal-use software and website development costs

We account for internal-use software and website development costs, including the development of our ZipAgent Platform (ZAP)
in accordance with the guidance set forth in the related accounting standards. We capitalize internal costs consisting of payroll and direct payroll-related costs of employees who devote time to the development of internal-use software, as well as
any external direct costs. We amortize these costs over their estimated useful lives, which typically range between 15 to 24 months. Our judgment is required in determining the point at which various projects enter the stages at which costs may
be capitalized, in assessing the ongoing value of the capitalized costs, and in determining the estimated useful lives over which the costs are amortized. The estimated life is based on managements judgment as to the product life cycle.

Stock-based compensation

We follow the provisions of accounting standards for share-based payments, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation
expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases, based on estimated fair values. Under the fair value recognition provisions of the accounting standards,
stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards expected to vest and recognized as expense using the straight-line method over the requisite service period of the award.

We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which incorporates various assumptions
including volatility, expected life and interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock and consideration of other relevant factors such as the volatility of guideline companies. The expected life of
options is estimated by taking the average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the option. We estimate expected forfeitures based on various factors including employee class and historical experience. The estimation of stock awards that
will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from our current estimates, such amounts will be recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period the estimates are revised.

Income taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from the differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in
the financial statements as well as from net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax amounts are determined by using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received, as provided
under current tax law. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable or refundable, respectively, for the period adjusted for
the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The accounting standard for income taxes requires that
deferred tax assets be evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent we believe a portion will not be realized. We consider many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of our deferred tax
assets, including our recent historical results and our expectations for the future. Historically, we have recorded a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets, the majority of which relate to net operating loss carryforwards and we maintain
that a full valuation allowance should be accounted for against our net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2010.

Net transaction revenues

Net transaction revenues consist primarily of commissions earned as agents to buyers and sellers on the purchase or sale of real estate
transactions, net of any rebate, commission discount or transaction fee adjustment.

The increase
in net transaction revenues of $3.5 million or 16.3% was driven primarily by an increase in the number of transactions closed during the period of 732 or 17.5%, offset by a decrease in average net revenue per transaction of $52 or 1.0%. The
year over year increase in the number of transactions closed was partially attributable to an increase of 159 or 73.3% sell side transactions as these seller representation transactions increased to 7.7% of total transactions closed from 5.2% in the
quarter ended March 31, 2009. The year over year decrease in average net revenue per transaction for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was $1,328 or 20.6%. We believe year over year decreases in average net revenue per transaction have moderated
because of a combination of factors. Foreclosure, bank real estate owned (REO) and short sale transactions, which are typically transacted at reduced sales prices, declined to 37% of transactions in the quarter ended March 31, 2010
from 53% in the quarter ended March 31, 2009. Overall decreases in housing prices continue as well as ongoing tightening in the availability of consumer mortgage financing particularly impacting the sale of higher priced housing.

##### Table of Contents

We expect our net transaction revenues will increase for 2010 driven by an increase in the
overall number of transactions in our markets partially offset by a continued decrease in net revenue per transaction. The decrease in net revenue per transaction year over year is expected to result from a continuation of the factors impacting the
period ended March 31, 2010: overall decreases in housing prices, the number of foreclosure, bank REO and short sale transactions, typically at further reduced sales prices, and ongoing pressure on the availability of consumer mortgage
financing particularly impacting the sale of higher priced housing. We expect foreclosure, bank REO and, particularly, short sales to increase as a percentage of transactions closed during the remainder of 2010 which will continue to contribute to
the expected decrease in net revenue per transaction.

Marketing and other revenues

Marketing and other revenues consist primarily of market transaction referrals and corporate marketing agreements and advertising.

The increase in corporate marketing and other revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2010
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was primarily attributable to fees from a mortgage services marketing agreement with Bank of America, which commenced in June 2009.

We expect our marketing and other income will increase for 2010 attributable to full year results from the Bank of America agreement and
as we explore our options for other marketing agreements, advertising and sources of residential real estate related services.

Cost of revenues

Our cost of revenues consists principally of commissions, payroll taxes, benefits including health insurance, performance and tenure based
award programs, agent expense reimbursements and amortization of internal-use software and website development costs which relate primarily to our ZAP technology. Agent commissions are generally paid on market net revenues which include net
transaction revenues plus referral and other revenues generated by our ZipAgents.

The increase
in cost of revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was primarily related to the overall increase in net revenues on which we pay agent commissions. Agent commissions and payroll taxes
increased by $2.0 million or 19.0% primarily attributable to the mix of agent commissions paid and the increase in the net revenues on which these costs are based. Agent performance and tenure based programs, benefits and expense reimbursements
decreased by approximately $0.6 million or 19.0% primarily attributable to a decrease in the number of qualifying agents. Overall, cost of revenues as a percentage of market net revenues decreased by about 3.1 percentage points.

We expect our cost of revenues for 2010 will increase in absolute dollars and decrease as a percentage of net revenues over the remainder
of the year. The first quarter of each calendar year is typically the seasonally slowest quarter of the year with the highest cost of revenue percentage primarily attributable to the relatively fixed costs of agent performance and tenure based
programs, benefits and expense reimbursements as well as higher payroll taxes due to resets of limits at the beginning of the year.

The increase
in product development expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was due primarily to supporting higher website volume and fulfilling product requirements for our website and ZAP system and
consisted primarily of increases in salaries and benefits of $0.1 million and infrastructure costs of $0.1 million partially offset by a decrease in depreciation expense of $0.1 million. As a percentage of net revenues, product development
expenses decreased by 1.2 percentage points for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

We expect our product development expenses to increase in 2010 in absolute dollars and to decrease as a percentage of net revenues over
the remainder of the year. The first quarter of each calendar year is typically the seasonally slowest period of the year with all operating expenses representing a higher percentage of net revenues than full year results are expected to reflect.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel engaged in sales, sales support and
customer service as well as promotional, advertising and client acquisition costs. These expenses have been categorized below between those incurred in our market offices and those expenses which are incurred by the regional and corporate support
functions.

Sales and marketing expenses increased in our markets by approximately $0.6 million or 7.4%
principally attributable to increases in salaries and benefits of $0.3 million and customer acquisition and marketing costs of $0.3 million. As a percentage of market net revenues, market sales and marketing expenses were 35.2% in the current year
compared to 38.1% in the prior year.

Regional/corporate sales support and marketing expenses increased by approximately $0.2
million or 12.4% and consisted primarily of general operating expenses including sales incentive and management meetings. As a percentage of net revenues, regional sales support and marketing expenses were approximately 7.7% in the current year
compared to 8.1% in the prior year.

We expect our market level and regional/corporate sales and marketing expenses for 2010
will increase in absolute dollars but will decrease as a percentage of net revenues over the remainder of the year. The first quarter of each calendar year is typically the seasonally slowest period of the year with all operating expenses
representing a higher percentage of net revenues than full year results are expected to reflect.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel and facilities related to our
executive, finance, human resources, facilities and legal organizations, and fees for professional services. Professional services are principally comprised of outside legal, audit and tax services.

The increase
in general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was principally due to an increase in salaries and benefits of $0.1 million. As a percentage of net revenues,
general and administrative expenses were 14.0% for the current year compared to 16.0% in the prior year.

We expect our
general and administrative expenses for 2010 will increase in absolute dollars but will decrease as a percentage of net revenues over the remainder of the year. The first quarter of each calendar year is typically the seasonally slowest period of
the year with all operating expenses representing a higher percentage of net revenues than full year results are expected to reflect.

Interest income

Interest income relates to interest we earn on our money market deposits and short-term investments.



|                |  |                             |    |                    |   |     |               |   |      |   |  |       |

Interest
income fluctuates as our cash equivalents and short-term investment balances change and applicable interest rates increase or decrease. The decrease in interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended
March 31, 2008 was due primarily to lower interest rates earned on lower average balances. The lower interest rates were primarily attributable to overall decreases in market interest rates combined with maintaining higher money market account
balances yielding lower interest rates as we decreased our short-term investments positions. The lower average balances were primarily attributable cash used in our operating activities as a result of the losses incurred since March 31, 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal sources of liquidity for 2010 are our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. As of March 31, 2010, we had
cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at fair value of $38.1 million and no bank debt, line of credit or equipment facilities.

Operating activities

Our operating activities used cash in the amount of $5.2 and $4.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. Cash used in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 resulted primarily from a net loss of $6.2 million increased by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.5 million and decreased by non-cash adjustments. The non-cash
adjustments resulted primarily from $0.6 million of depreciation and amortization and $0.7 million of stock-based compensation expense. The increase in cash used attributable to the net changes in operating assets and liabilities was mainly driven
by timing differences in accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses relating to agent compensation, bonuses, and customer acquisition expenses. Cash used in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 resulted primarily from a net loss of
$7.5 million decreased by non-cash adjustments including $0.6 million of depreciation and amortization and $1.0 million of stock-based compensation expense.

Our primary source of operating cash flow is the collection of our net commission income from escrow companies or similar intermediaries
in the real estate transaction closing process offset by cash payments for ZipAgent costs; commissions, payroll taxes, benefits, award programs and expense reimbursements, as well as for product development, sales and marketing and general and
administrative costs including employee compensation, benefits, client acquisition costs and other operating expenses. Due to the structure of our commission arrangements, our accounts receivable are settled in cash on a short-term basis and our
accounts receivable balances at period end have historically been significantly less than one months net revenues.

Investing activities

Our investing activities provided cash of $0.4 million and $14.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. Cash provided for in the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily represents the proceeds from the sale and maturity of short-term investments of $0.9 million less the purchase of property and equipment, including amounts for
website development and internal use software. Cash provided for the three months ended March 31, 2009 represent the net proceeds from the sales and maturity of short-term investments of $14.6 million less the purchase of property and
equipment, including amounts for website development and internal use software.

We typically maintain a minimum amount of
cash and cash equivalents for operational purposes and invest the remaining amount of our cash in investment grade, highly liquid interest-bearing securities which allows for flexibility in the event our cash needs change.

Currently, we expect our remaining 2010 capital expenditures to be approximately $2.2 million primarily attributable to amounts
capitalized for internal-use software and website development as well as expenditures for increased server capacity and software. In the future, our ability to make significant capital investments may depend on our ability to generate cash flow from
operations and to obtain adequate financing, if necessary and available.

Financing activities

Our financing activities used $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and were not significant in the three months
ended March 31, 2009. The use of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2010 represents primarily the repurchase of shares of our common stock in connection with the payment of withholding and payroll taxes due upon vesting of employee
restricted stock awards partially offset by the proceeds from stock option exercises.

As of March 31, 2010, we had one
warrant outstanding for the purchase of an aggregate of 3,284 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $18.27 per share; that warrant is currently exercisable at the option of the holder and expires in August 2010.

Future needs

We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to fund cash used in our operations and
capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our level of investment in technology and advertising initiatives, our rate of growth into new geographic markets
and possible repurchases of our common stock. In addition, if the current macroeconomic environment and depressed state of the residential real estate market continues or worsens, we may have a greater need to fund our business by using our cash
reserves, which could not continue indefinitely without our raising additional capital.

We routinely explore our options for
offering services relating to the purchase, sale and ownership of a home, including services related to title insurance, escrow, mortgage, home warranty insurance and property and casualty insurance (including auto insurance), which we refer to as
core services. We expect that some of our core services will be offered through affiliates (including wholly owned subsidiaries), while others will be offered through joint ventures or promoted through marketing arrangements with independent third
parties, such as title companies, banks and insurance companies. We may enter into these types of arrangements in the future, which could also require us to seek additional equity or debt financing.

We currently have no bank debt or line of credit facilities. In the event that additional financing is required, we may not be able to
raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operations and results will likely suffer.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

We lease office space under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through June 2016. The following table provides
summary information concerning our future contractual obligations and commitments at March 31, 2010.

|Adjusted EBITDA margin |  |                             | (19.4  | )% |      |   | (28.6  | )%

We present Adjusted
EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental measure of our performance. We believe Adjusted EDITDA provides useful information regarding the operating results of our core business activity and prospects for the future. We define Adjusted
EBITDA as net income (loss) less interest income plus interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation and further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider
reflective of our ongoing core operating performance.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and
analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are reflective of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our financial
results and business strategies, develop budgets, manage expenditures and as a factor in evaluating managements performance when determining incentive compensation.

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:



| |  |  | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | non-cash stock-based compensation is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as
an expense when evaluating our ongoing operating performance for a particular period;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges or credits resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective of our core
ongoing operations, and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which limits its usefulness as a
comparative measure.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. When evaluating our performance, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered alongside other financial measures, including net income and our other GAAP results.

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure, net loss for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009:

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk:
|------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

Interest rate sensitivity

Our investment policy requires us to invest funds in excess of current operating requirements. The principal objectives of our investment
activities are to preserve principal, provide liquidity and maximize income consistent with minimizing risk of material loss. We believe this investment policy is prudent, and helps to reduce, but does not prevent, loss of principal, and results in
minimal interest rate exposure on our investments.

As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, our cash and cash equivalents
consisted primarily of money market funds and our short-term investments consisted primarily of investment grade, highly liquid interest-bearing securities. The recorded carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to
their short maturities and short-term investments are carried at fair value. The amount of credit exposure to any one issue, issuer and type of instrument is limited. Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of interest rates
in the United States, particularly since the majority of our investments are fixed income investments. If market interest rates were to increase or decrease immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels at March 31, 2010 and 2009, there would be
a negligible increase or decline in fair market value of the portfolio.

Exchange rate sensitivity

We consider our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations to be minimal, as we do not have any sales denominated in foreign
currencies. We have not engaged in any hedging or other derivative transactions to date.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures:
|------- | ------------------------

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such items are defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act)) as of the end of the
period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly
Report are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings:
|------- | ------------------

On March 26, 2010, we were named as one of fourteen defendants in a law suit filed in United States District Court for the District
of Delaware, Smarter Agent LLC v. Boopsie, Inc., et al., by plaintiff, Smarter Agent LLC. The complaint alleges that the defendants have each infringed on patents owned by Smarter Agent relating to mobile device application technology and
seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief. We are in the initial stages of investigating this matter, but do not currently believe that we have infringed on any patent, or that we have any liability for the claims alleged and thus, intends to
vigorously defend against this lawsuit.

On January 22, 2010, we were named in a class action lawsuit filed in the
Superior Court of California, County of Alameda, Elizabeth Williams v. ZipRealty, Inc., et al., by a former employee agent of the Company. The complaint sought monetary relief and alleged, among other things, that our practice of classifying
agents as exempt employees pursuant to the outside salesperson exemption under California law, and compensating agents accordingly, violates applicable law regarding the payment of minimum wages and overtime. We filed a counter
claim against Plaintiff Elizabeth Williams alleging, among other things, that Ms. Williams engaged in conduct violating her employment agreement with us. On March 16, 2010, the parties entered into a settlement of these claims whereby each
party agreed to dismiss their claim against the other. The parties have each filed dismissals of their claims.

We are not
currently subject to any other material legal proceedings. From time to time we have been, and we currently are, a party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of the business. The amounts in dispute in these matters are
not material to us, and we believe that the resolution of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors:
|-------- | -------------

Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Because of risks and uncertainties affecting our operating results and
financial condition, past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. You should consider carefully the risk factors
described under Risk Factors in Item 1A of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. At this time, we are not aware of any material changes to the nature of those risk factors. We
intend to set forth material changes to the nature of those risk factors in our future reports on Form 10-Q as required by Item 1A of Part II thereof. For business, market and other developments in the quarter ended March 31, 2010, please
see Item 2 of Part I of this report, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.



|Item 5. | Other Information:
|------- | ------------------

Our Insider Trading Compliance Program allows directors, officers and other employees covered under the program to establish, under
limited circumstances contemplated by Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, written programs that permit automatic trading of our stock or trading of our stock by an independent person (such as an investment bank)
who is not aware of material inside information at the time of the trade. As of the filing date of this report, none of our directors or executive officers has adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, but they may do so in the future, and we believe
that our additional officers and employees may have established such programs or may do so in the future.
