Dupuis v. Zillow Group, Inc.
United States District Court for the Western District of Washington
Case No. 3:26-cv-05049
Case Overview
On January 16, 2026, Keller Rohrback filed a putative class action lawsuit on behalf of real estate agents enrolled in Zillow Group’s Premier, Preferred, or Flex Agent programs. The lawsuit alleges that Zillow unlawfully abused its monopoly power in the online real estate marketplace to overcharge real estate agents and coerce them into promoting Zillow’s mortgage lending services through its “Preferred” or “Premier” agent programs. The complaint claims that Zillow’s market dominance leaves agents with little practical choice but to participate in these agent programs, where Zillow imposes excessive fees and ties access to client referrals to the use of its in-house lending products.
