FTC antitrust lawsuit against Zillow–Redfin's $100m partnership advances to trial after court rejects dismissal; regulators allege the exclusive rental listing distribution deal eliminated independent competition and reduced incentives for service improvement.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Proptech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you run a rental listing or apartment search platform, the FTC just proved it will take exclusive distribution deals to trial—meaning partnerships that look efficiency-neutral are now regulatory risks. You need to stay independent or you become the test case.
