Description: Z Zillow C October 16, 2025

Zillow Group Inc. (NASDAQ: Z) operates a suite of U.S. real-estate brands-including Zillow, Trulia, StreetEasy, HotPads and Out East-delivering consumer-facing marketplaces for agents, rentals, new-construction listings, and mortgage services, as well as B2B SaaS tools such as dotloop, ShowingTime+, Spruce and Follow Up Boss.

Key performance metrics from the most recent quarter (Q3 2024) show revenue of $1.42 billion, up 6 % YoY, driven primarily by a 12 % rise in advertising spend on the Premier Agent platform and a 9 % increase in mortgage-originations volume. The company reported 115 million monthly active users across its digital properties, with a 4 % year-over-year growth in average listings per user-a leading indicator of market engagement.

Fundamental economic drivers for Zillow include U.S. housing inventory levels (currently at a 3-year low of 1.2 million homes), mortgage-rate volatility (the 30-year fixed rate hovering around 7 % as of October 2025), and broader digital-ad spend trends in real-estate services, which have been rising at ~5 % CAGR. These factors create both upside potential for transaction-related revenue and downside risk if rates remain elevated, suppressing buyer demand.

Given the interplay of housing-market fundamentals and Zillow’s diversified SaaS revenue stream, a deeper dive into the company’s unit economics and competitive positioning on platforms like ValueRay could help clarify its long-term valuation prospects.
