Zillow Group, Inc., which is transforming the way people buy, sell, rent, and finance homes, today announced its consolidated financial results for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2019. The company's consolidated quarterly revenue more than doubled year over year, driven by strong results in Zillow Group's Homes segment and solid performance in the Premier Agent business.
"Our third quarter results were strong, demonstrating that Zillow Group's business model expansion to mechanize real estate transactions is gaining traction as consumer demand reveals people want a better, simpler way to buy, sell, rent and finance homes. Our core Premier Agent business is strong, with record revenue that exceeded our outlook. The profitability of our Premier Agent business is foundational to Zillow's success and is the reason we are able to expand Zillow Offers with such confidence and speed. This quarter's results illuminate how Zillow Group is in the most favorable position to lead Real Estate 2.0."
— Zillow Co-Founder and CEO Rich Barton
