  • Breaking Down Zillow's Dogfight With the Brokerage Industry

    Breaking Down Zillow's Dogfight With the Brokerage Industry
    Apr 17 2025
    Zillow just threw a grenade into the real estate industry. In a bold new move, the listing giant announced it will blacklist homes that are marketed privately before hitting public search portals. This targets the growing trend of “exclusive inventory,” where brokerages like Compass keep listings in-house to gain a competitive edge. But Zillow’s crackdown isn’t just about fairness — it’s about survival. In this episode, we unpack the power struggle between Zillow, Compass, and the rest of the housing ecosystem — and what it means for investors, buyers, and sellers navigating an increasingly fragmented market.

  • A New Bill in Congress Could Have Huge Impacts on the Housing Market

    A New Bill in Congress Could Have Huge Impacts on the Housing Market
    Apr 16 2025
    A rare bipartisan breakthrough in housing policy: Congress just introduced the Housing Supply Frameworks Act, a bill that could reshape local zoning nationwide. Backed by over 140 housing organizations, the bill directs HUD to develop model frameworks to help cities modernize restrictive land-use policies — the very ones driving America’s severe housing shortage. In this episode, we break down what the bill actually does, why it matters, and how it could unlock millions of new homes without a single federal mandate. Whether you’re an investor, policymaker, or just struggling to find a place to live, this is one housing policy you’ll want to understand.

  • How China Could Devastate the American Housing Market

    How China Could Devastate the American Housing Market
    Apr 14 2025
    Mortgage rates are spiking—but the real danger isn’t just the Fed. It’s China. In this episode, we break down how the global selloff in U.S. Treasuries, triggered by President Trump’s tariff policy, is rattling confidence in America’s debt. But the bigger threat? China and other foreign nations are major holders of U.S. mortgage-backed securities—and they may start dumping them. If they do, it could send mortgage rates soaring and derail the spring housing market just as it’s trying to recover. We unpack the financial fallout already in motion, and what it means for your wallet. Subscribe to the BiggerPockets Channel for the best real estate investing education online!
