Zillow says you're their client, but did you ever agree to that?

In today's episode, Robert Arauco pulls back the curtain on how real estate data is being sliced, sold, repackaged, and leveraged against both consumers and REALTORS®. He and Leigh dig into what agents must understand about the new data battlefield, how to protect your clients' privacy, and why owning your tech is the new competitive edge.

Key takeaways to listen for

• One simple habit to use the tech you already pay for
• The problem with Zillow, Redfin, and who owns your clicks
• Can AI follow Fair Housing rules and who's training it?
• How to reframe the "I already use Zillow" conversation
• What happens to MLS data if the industry fractures?
