The leadership finally shifted their stance and acknowledged the damage this path was causing our profession. It has been a long and taxing road but we held our ground until they walked back the decision. Keep watching because we need to ensure this stays resolved for good.

We call on William E. Brown, President of the National Association of REALTORs® to defend the Members of NAR against the continued attempts of Zillow to undermine and devalue our industry by eliminating the human/REALTOR® component of our trade. Zillow's recent move to becoming a listing entity and buying homes directly from consumers leaves consumers un-represented, uninformed, and vulnerable to misleading and self-interested hedge funds bent on devaluing the homes they purchase, while charging premiums when re-sold.

We just hit five hundred signatures and the fatigue of this fight is starting to set in. It is exhausting to watch our livelihood get dismantled piece by piece but seeing your names here reminds me why I started this.

One hundred people have signed on to challenge this shift in our industry. It is draining to see our work pushed aside but seeing your names here proves we are not alone in this fight.

I just got my license and have figured that it won't be good for long if you don't do something about Zillow and other online Real Estate Companies, please don't give them our MLS listings what is the point of me getting my license and joining the MLS if you are giving it away to everyone out there.
We cannot allow Zillow free access to the MLSes, have Buyers and Sellers contact them, and then they charge the brokers and agents for those leads or create a back channel to have them negotiate deals between buyers and sellers.
I want to know how my board of realtors got compensated by allowing the IDX of our MLS to zillow. Now we are all screwed , and have to buy zip codes just to get our own leads, We need to shut them DOWN!!!!
Zillow and a handful of other companies are trying to corner the market on real estate sales. That sort of profit-driven bigger-is-better foolishness is a part of what led to the crash in 2007. Support your Realtors, licensed and with a fiduciary duty to you, by signing this petition.
Zillow and others should be stopped. The general public, has the mis informed idea that Zillow knows the value of their home. Nothing could be further from the truth. I have had listings sell for much more than Zillow zestimated, and for much less as well. Nothing can beat a reputable Agent that knows the market!
This is a joke. Realtors are highway robbers. the sooner we get rid of them the better
Haven’t you taken enough from us?

Zillow has to be stopped or there will be millions of consumers who will be entering into deals without knowing anything about their rights and without someone on their side in transactions.
