Zillow lost access to roughly 43,000 Chicago-area home listings—approximately 60% of active inventory in the region—after Midwest Real Estate Data (MRED), the local MLS provider, cut off Zillow's listing feed. The cutoff followed MRED's accusation that Zillow breached its licensing agreement by refusing to display a small number of Compass Private Exclusive listings in California, Florida, and Georgia. Compass, Chicago's largest real estate brokerage, has simultaneously pulled its listings from Zillow across multiple states, compounding the dispute.
