Is Zillow in Trouble? Inside the Seven Lawsuits Shaking Real Estate
Description
Let’s talk about Zillow—yes, the same Zillow that basically rebuilt the real estate universe… and is now spending 2025 defending itself from what looks like every attorney in the Northern Hemisphere.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the seven active lawsuits currently circling the real estate giant like seagulls over a Publix sub. And these aren’t small claims court arguments over a Zestimate being rude. These are big, messy, industry-shaping battles involving:
• Compass and federal regulators accusing Zillow of antitrust violations
• Copyright fights with CoStar over rental photos
• A job discrimination lawsuit filed by a former employee
• Two separate RESPA lawsuits tied to Flex and Premier Agent
• And a rental syndication deal with Redfin that apparently stepped on every possible legal rake
But here’s the thing—this isn’t just courtroom drama. These cases could reshape how buyer agents get paid, how listings get shared online, and what the next era of real estate competition looks like.
So grab a cafecito (or a triple), because this one’s spicy, fast, and very 2025.

Until next time, stay curious, stay hungry, and as always… stay ALL IN!
