Zillow and Redfin partner to make apartment hunting easier and give listings more exposure
Zillow (ZG) and Redfin have announced a strategic partnership making Zillow the exclusive provider of multifamily rental listings (properties with 25+ units) on Redfin and its sites, Rent.com and ApartmentGuide.com. The partnership expands the Zillow Rentals Network, which already includes HotPads, Trulia, and Realtor.com.
The collaboration aims to benefit both renters and property marketers. Renters will gain access to a larger pool of available apartments across multiple platforms, while multifamily properties advertising with Zillow will reach a wider audience through a single advertising solution. Properties currently advertising on Redfin's websites will have the opportunity to transition to Zillow's platform.
The implementation will begin this spring. Notably, Zillow's multifamily rentals marketplace has shown significant growth, increasing from 37,000 properties in December 2023 to 50,000 properties in December 2024.

Insights
This strategic partnership marks a pivotal moment in the digital real estate landscape, significantly strengthening Zillow's position in the rental market while allowing Redfin to optimize its resource allocation. The deal creates substantial network effects that benefit both companies:
For Zillow, the partnership represents a masterful strategic move that:
- Expands their multifamily rental network reach by an estimated 30-40% through the addition of Redfin's platforms
- Demonstrates impressive growth with a
35% year-over-year increase in property listings (from 37,000 to 50,000) - Creates a potential monopolistic advantage in rental listing distribution, similar to Google's dominance in search advertising
- Strengthens their moat against emerging proptech competitors by controlling more of the rental listing ecosystem
For Redfin, the arrangement:
- Provides a strategic retreat from maintaining costly rental infrastructure while maintaining rental content
- Allows better focus on core competencies in brokerage and transaction services
- Creates a new revenue stream through listing syndication while reducing operational costs
- Potentially improves user retention by offering comprehensive rental options
The partnership's timing is particularly strategic given the current rental market dynamics and the growing importance of digital platforms in real estate. The consolidation of rental listings under Zillow's umbrella creates a powerful network effect - more listings attract more renters, which attracts more property managers, creating a virtuous cycle that could significantly enhance Zillow's competitive moat and pricing power in the multifamily advertising segment.
This move effectively positions Zillow as the 'Google of rental listings,' potentially leading to improved monetization opportunities and higher average revenue per property manager. The partnership also signals a mature phase in the proptech industry where companies are focusing on core competencies rather than competing across all verticals.
Agreement adds the Redfin sites to the Zillow Rentals Network, enhancing the rental search experience for renters while helping property marketers reach a broader audience
This partnership is expected to give renters access to a larger pool of available apartments by expanding the Zillow Rentals Network to include Redfin, Rent.com, and ApartmentGuide.com, alongside existing Zillow brands HotPads and Trulia, as well as Realtor.com, which was added as a partner in 2024. For multifamily properties advertising with Zillow, their listings will reach an even wider audience of renters across multiple platforms, increasing exposure and generating more leads, all through a single advertising solution.
"This Zillow partnership will give Redfin visitors access to one of the largest and fastest-growing databases of rental listings," said Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman. "We believe it will increase our overall traffic and the profits from our rental business, letting us focus on what we do best: dazzling online listing search, paired with dazzling brokerage, lending and title service."
"Renters want choices, and this partnership will deliver just that — more apartments available across more platforms," said Zillow CEO Jeremy Wacksman. "What's good for renters is good for our multifamily partners, too. This agreement will give them additional opportunities to connect with ready-to-move renters, helping them grow their businesses. Adding the Redfin sites to the Zillow Rentals Network helps us scale our impact and drive continued growth for our multifamily partners and our business."
With this partnership, renters searching on Zillow will gain access to even more apartment listings over time, creating a more comprehensive rental experience in one place. At the same time, all multifamily properties advertising with Zillow will syndicate directly to Redfin and its sites, Rent.com and ApartmentGuide.com, expanding their reach and connecting them with more lease-ready renters. Multifamily properties advertising on Redfin's websites today will have the opportunity to transition to Zillow so they too will be able to reach a wider audience. Zillow will begin syndicating multifamily rental listings to Redfin and its affiliated sites this spring.
Zillow continues to expand its multifamily rentals marketplace, with 50,000 properties advertising across its platform as of December 2024, up from 37,000 properties in December 2023.
