Show Notes

Zillow is enforcing stricter MLS compliance, requiring publicly marketed listings to appear on the MLS within one business day — or be removed from Zillow and Trulia. This move could have major implications for agents, investors, and off-market deal flow. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down what the policy means, why it's controversial, and how it could reshape transparency, competition, and control in the real estate industry. Topics Discussed:
  • 00:00 Zillow's Shakeup
  • 00:25 Zillow's MLS New Rules
  • 01:00 Investor Impact
  • 01:30 Buyer Visibility
  • 01:50 The Controversy
  • 02:28 Zillow's Reasoning
