Zillow's Private Listing Ban

[Ella Compton]

As of Monday, Zillow has officially begun enforcing its ban on private listings, marking a major shift in how properties are marketed online. Zillow is now requiring that all publicly marketed listings be added to the MLS within 24 hours to appear on their platform.

This change comes with significant implications for agents, brokerages, and sellers who previously relied on private listing networks or office exclusives to market high end or off market properties. 

How does everyone think Zillow's ban on private listings will impact strategy or the broader real estate market in the coming year?
