AGs secure agreement to restore competition between Zillow and Redfin, advancing consumer choice

Two of the country’s top property listing websites will end an anticompetitive scheme harming consumers under a settlement announced today with a coalition of five attorneys general – co-led by Attorney General Nick Brown – and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

The settlement restores competition in apartment advertising between Zillow Group, Inc. (Zillow) and Redfin Corporation (Redfin), which operate two of the top three largest websites for renters to search for apartments and for building managers to list their available units.
