The housing market stood still, but Zillow didn't.
18% revenue growth in Q2. AI mode, Zillow Preview, Showcase — each one making Zillow more useful and harder to replicate.
Also: congrats to Jeremy Hofmann on an expanded role and welcome Sandi Knight as our new Chief Legal and Policy Officer. Great people make great companies.
Officially a Las Vegas resident. Kids are launched, empty nest achieved, and we're excited to start this next chapter.
This Today Show segment with CEO Jeremy Wacksman captures what @Zillow was built for.
A tough market is exactly when our data and products matter most — helping buyers understand what homes are worth, and helping sellers know how to stand out. Affordability challenges aren't going away overnight. But better information and smarter tools make the path forward clearer.
Twenty years in and Zillow is still the place people turn to make sense of one of the most important decisions of their lives. That never gets old.

20 years in, and I’m more fired up about Zillow's position than at any point in our history. We’re growing beautifully at 18% through the worst real estate macro in a generation, which is a nod to our innovation culture, the uniqueness of our long-term strategy, the quality of our execution, and the immensity of our TAM. Going forward, it’s crystal clear to me that our geek roots, unique content, and embedded industry workflow-position mean that Zillow will be the real estate AI winner.

Fantastic @bgurley interview on his new book, Running Down a Dream (a.co/d/5APYleb), with @andrewrsorkin on @CNBC. Bill's heartfelt inspiration is the perfect antidote to the "just pay your dues, make money, and shut up" advice that too many young people hear today. cnb.cx/3MuYqaS
Zillow 1.0 launched 20 years ago. Our product gets better every quarter. Our partners get better every quarter. We serve consumers better every quarter. Well done, team Z.

Maximum "talent density" on display in @patrick_oshag interview of @reedhastings. Also, a high density of heart, brains, and courage. Enjoy, and be sure to wash your coffee mugs at work... open.spotify.com/episode/6Pr…
This conversation with CEO Jeremy Wacksman captures what @Zillow has become. What started as a simple, yet bold, idea — to give information power to the people — has shaped how folks think about home (and that includes the @nbcSNL sketch). youtube.com/watch?app=deskto…
Zillow sits squarely at the center of the cultural zeitgeist because buying, selling, and renting a home matters deeply. As affordability challenges persist, our work to make moving easier matters even more. Worth the read as we look ahead to 2026.
Zillow has become virtually synonymous with house hunting in the US. Despite inventory challenges, here’s how the roughly $16 billion company's CEO plans to stay on top bloomberg.com/news/features/…
Incredible final pod (for now), @bgurley. Saved the best for last. Getting "2 seasons" of you as a regular on @BG2Pod has been a real treat, but I'm certain @altcap brad and the team @AltimeterCap will continue to put on a great show for us. We appreciate both you guys and the team that supports you.

Strong Q2 from @ZillowGroup: Growing revenue, gaining share, and delivering results in both For Sale and Rentals.
Proud of how the team continues to deliver in the face of an extended challenged housing market. One year into Jeremy Wacksman's tenure as CEO — big progress across the business with bigger things to come.

Wise words from the founder on 30 year anniversary of low key, high performing @TCVTech, Technology Crossover Ventures, in the words of THE @jaychoag, Jay Hoag, who has been an incredible partner to me in building @Expedia and @zillow. And of course, no one gives better interview than @patrick_oshag open.spotify.com/episode/2Bp…
When you make something useful – and a little provocative — people talk.
That’s how we launched @zillow: by building features people needed and couldn’t get anywhere else.

Great leaders don’t have all the answers.
They hire smart people, ask better questions, and get out of the way.
Talked with the one and only @tferriss about building teams, staying curious, and how we built @zillow.

In a stubbornly choppy housing market team Zillow continues to outperform. Super impressive quarter and year, @zillowgroup! I'm excited about the innovations we have on deck for 2025, and expectations for outperformance.
Congratulations and good luck, Spencer. Another fantastic digital marketplace for you to lead.

Glean is building an enterprise co-pilot that is driving productivity across the org. A turning point for me was @Rich_Barton telling me he used it everyday & as CEO was the only enterprise software product he ever got truly excited about. @ravi_lsvp @mamoonha @htaneja
Today, I’m excited to share that @Glean has raised over $260M in new funding at a $4.6B valuation co-led by Altimeter and DST Global, as well as launched exciting new product capabilities that together will enable Glean’s Work AI platform to expand its reach and deliver everyday AI for everyone at work. bit.ly/3Zf4sQR
