Reimagining real estate to make it easier than ever to move from one home to the next.
About us
Join our mission to give the people power to unlock life’s next chapter. We’re looking for smart, passionate people to join our largely distributed workforce as we reimagine the real estate transaction and change the way people buy, sell, rent and finance their homes. Our homes are the heartbeat of our lives, and we believe that finding a home shouldn’t be so hard in today’s always-on world. That’s why we’re reimagining the traditional rules of real estate to make it easier than ever to move from one home to the next. Our journey began nearly 15 years ago with a handful of employees and one big idea: to make it radically easier for people to move. We began by helping people understand and track their homes’ values with the Zestimate, our proprietary algorithm, and then with advanced technology and valuable connections with real estate professionals. Today, Zillow has become a household name; “Zillow” is Googled more frequently than “real estate.” We believe that the time for a seamless and convenient real estate experience is now. This is Zillow’s next chapter.

It’s here! Today, together with the Casita Coalition we are launching the “Build the Middle” Playbook – A Guide to Expanding Affordable Housing. For advocates, policymakers, and community leaders, this comprehensive playbook offers essential tools to address the housing affordability crisis and broaden housing options. Why it matters: The U.S. is facing a critical housing shortage, with approximately 8.09 million households in need of housing and only 3.55 million available units. This gap has driven up housing costs, making it increasingly difficult for families to secure affordable homes. The “Build the Middle” playbook helps address the affordability challenges by increasing the options for housing. What’s in the Playbook: ✅ Actionable strategies: Practical policy recommendations to overcome barriers in zoning, financing, permitting, and development. ✅ Success stories: Insights from cities like Minneapolis, Portland, and Seattle that have successfully implemented housing reforms. ✅ Proven approaches: Effective methods, including accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and innovative zoning solutions, to enhance housing affordability. Join us in making a difference: Download the “Build the Middle” Playbook today and start driving meaningful change towards equitable and affordable housing.

Though renovation can help improve the value of a home, it’s not always in the budget. We teamed up with Thumbtack to identify the top features buyers are excited about – and how sellers can incorporate them without breaking the bank (or breaking out a construction crew).
