We aim to be a one-stop financing platform for property seekers and owners, aggregating all necessary information in one place.

The idea for Zillow emerged from recognizing the lack of transparency in the real estate market, where basic information like home prices was hard to find online.

I learned that to disrupt the real estate industry, we need to integrate technology, design, and community into a cohesive vision.

By actively engaging with our users and improving their listings, we were able to curate quality properties, leading to increased bookings and traction for our service.

To ensure rapid growth, we rigorously assess opportunities and engage with all stakeholders in the property industry, including agents and home seekers.

We maintain transparency with landlords about pricing and relisting strategies, which helps build trust and solidifies our partnership.

We shifted our vision to make booking a home as easy as booking a hotel, aiming for a three-click process to complete the booking.

We aim to build a brand that resonates with developers, financial institutions, and consumers, focusing on trust and clarity, even though our user experience is often embedded and not directly visible to consumers.

I knew there would inevitably be a leading digital real estate marketplace in the US, and I wanted to be part of creating that solution.
