Overview

Zillow is a real estate platform that helps people buy, sell, rent, and finance homes. It uses technology and special algorithms, like the Zestimate, to provide accurate home values. This makes it easier for homebuyers and sellers to understand the market and make informed decisions. Unlike traditional real estate companies, Zillow focuses on making the entire process more convenient and straightforward. Its revenue comes from advertising, connecting real estate agents with potential clients, and offering mortgage services. The main goal of Zillow is to simplify the experience of moving from one home to another.
