Zillow and Redfin settled an FTC antitrust case concerning a 2025 partnership where Redfin agreed to display Zillow’s rental listings, limiting competition in rental advertising. The FTC alleged Zillow paid Redfin $100 million to avoid competition, potentially harming market pricing and terms.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Proptech, and 5 sources have reported it between 21 Aug 2026 and 24 Aug 2026.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a tighter US regulatory environment that will punish agreements limiting competition, especially in real estate advertising. Watch for new rivals reentering rental ads and pricing pressure from revived competition.
