On Episode 362 of This Week in Real Estate, we're breaking down the latest twist in the Zillow vs. MRED/Compass fight after a judge ordered Chicago listings restored to Zillow. We'll also look at how the fight has spilled onto social media, billboards, and the broader debate over who really benefits from private listings. Then we shift to the market: mortgage refinance demand drops as rates climb, cash buyers pull back, affordability improves slightly for the seventh straight month, luxury home prices keep rising, rental concessions surge, and pending sales start to wobble again. We'll also talk about Wells Fargo's new mortgage incentives for 3D-printed homes, contract cancellations stabilizing, and Realtor.com's latest international demand report showing Miami still dominating foreign buyer interest while Los Angeles fades. This week's big question: is the housing market stabilizing, splitting, or just getting weirder?","meta_description":"The battle over private listings just escalated again.
