Realtor.com acquires real estate tech firm Zenlist to enhance agent tools

AUSTIN - Realtor.com operator Move Inc. announced Monday it has acquired Zenlist, a real estate technology company specializing in collaborative search and productivity tools for agents and their clients. The acquisition adds to Move Inc.’s growing portfolio of real estate technology solutions, backed by parent company News Corp’s robust $17.6 billion market capitalization and strong 19.5% revenue growth over the last twelve months.

Founded in 2016, Zenlist’s platform brings agents and clients together in a unified search experience that simplifies communication and collaboration. The technology has already been adopted by several major Multiple Listing Services (MLSs), brokerages and more than 35,000 agents across the country.

"As shifting dynamics reshape the real estate industry, Realtor.com is investing in technology and tools that help our industry partners and real estate professionals stay resilient, relevant and ready for what’s next," said Anna Marie Castiglioni, Head of Realtor.com Next, in a press release statement.

Zenlist offers a mobile-first platform featuring collaboration tools, a consumer interface, and up-to-date listings without requiring MLSs or brokers to develop their own technology solutions.

Tom MacLeod, founder and CEO of Zenlist, said: "By tapping into Realtor.com’s trusted brand and scale, we’ll be able to enhance our platform, broaden our offerings, and continue delivering top-tier services and tools to even more industry partners and professionals."

Zenlist employees will join the team at Move Inc./Realtor.com. Financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

Realtor.com is operated by Move Inc., a subsidiary of News Corp [Nasdaq: NWS, NWSA] [ASX: NWS, NWSLV].
