Compass has filed a lawsuit against Zillow alleging it has violated antitrust laws by enforcing a rule that bans home listings from appearing on its platform if they have been listed elsewhere for over 24 hours. This exclusionary policy purportedly serves to protect Zillow’s monopoly and limit competition among real estate platforms. Compass argues this strategy undermines a free market by allowing Zillow to dictate terms and ensure all listings are funneled through its dominant platform, thus maximizing its own revenues.
Compass claims that Zillow has implemented an exclusionary policy that leads to anticompetitive practices and protects its monopoly over digital home listings.
The Zillow Ban seeks to ensure that all home listings in this country are steered on to its dominant search platform so Zillow can monetize each home listing.
