Zillow launched and built an industry-leading business based on the idea that removing barriers and increasing transparency for homebuyers could help people envision better futures for themselves. Recently, Zillow decided to make a strategic shift – from helping people envision better futures to turning those possibilities into realities. In practical terms, this meant transitioning from a web platform that gathered and displayed information into a multidimensional business that could schedule a tour, structure a mortgage, and even close a deal. In emotional terms, this meant pulling their customers through the magic of dreams into the messiness of reality. Their strongest ally on this quest? Human truth.
