"This new agreement allows us to deliver significant value to Realtor.com® users, and in partnership with Zillow, realize a financial benefit for Realtor.com®. Consumers will have access to an enhanced rental experience while property management companies and landlords will be able to tap into a market-leading combined audience across both the Realtor.com® and Zillow platforms," said Damian Eales, CEO, Realtor.com®. "On average, 70 million people each month turn to Realtor.com® to find their next place to live, and we remain committed to delivering the best possible experience for renters, buyers and sellers at ever stage of their real estate journey." Recognizing that nearly every homebuyer starts out as a renter, this collaboration is strategically designed to meet surging rental demand and support the immediate needs of both renters and property managers. Broadening access to Zillow's multifamily listings on Realtor.com® will provide more renters an enhanced experience with a wide array of options and tools to navigate today's challenging market.
