Layoff history
Redfin announced 450 job cuts on February 12, 2025, its third round of layoffs in seven months, as the Seattle real estate platform restructured following a major partnership deal with Zillow. Under a new exclusive agreement, Zillow becomes the sole provider of multifamily rental listings on Redfin's platforms, with Redfin receiving $100 million in exchange. The affected positions primarily supported the rentals division. CEO Glenn Kelman said the deal would give visitors access to one of the largest and fastest-growing rental listing databases while freeing the company to concentrate on lending and title services. Restructuring costs were estimated at $18 to $21 million, though the Zillow announcement sent Redfin's stock up more than 11% on the day.
Reason: Restructuring following Zillow rentals partnership
