Zillow Group to highlight AI-native housing platform strategy at AI Summit for Investors
Company reaffirms first-quarter, full-year outlook and mid-cycle targets while providing new mid-cycle net income margin target
SEATTLE, March 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zillow Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:Z) today is hosting an AI Summit for Investors, highlighting how the company is leading the next era of residential real estate. This half-day event will showcase how Zillow connects the end-to-end moving journey — including home discovery, renting, touring, buying, selling and financing — in an AI-native housing platform where consumers and professionals can take action. At the event, Zillow executives will share the company's product and platform strategy and demonstrate new and evolving consumer and professional experiences.
"Zillow's AI-native housing platform makes moving simpler and more connected, helping people move with clarity and confidence," said Zillow Chief Executive Officer Jeremy Wacksman. "We've built Zillow as a destination where high-intent consumers come to make decisions and act on them to buy, sell, finance, and rent. With two decades of innovation and building our proprietary data and integrated AI into core workflows, we're uniquely positioned to deliver better outcomes for consumers and industry professionals that we expect will drive durable growth for Zillow."
Zillow's AI strategy also benefits from being the most visited real estate app and website in the United States, with a deeply engaged audience of 235 million average monthly unique users — 80% of whom come directly to Zillow — and sustained engagement over months as consumers search, compare, tour and plan their move. This depth of consumer intent, combined with Zillow's breadth across both For Sale and Rentals, positions the company at the center of the housing journey for both consumers and industry professionals.
Advancing an AI-native housing platform
At the summit, Zillow leaders will outline how the company is building a unified housing operating system, with advantages across content, context and integration powering its AI strategy:
- Proprietary housing content: Comprehensive inventory across existing homes, rentals and new construction, enriched with structured data and immersive media
- High-intent consumer context: First-party behavioral signals across search, touring, financing and transaction activity that improve over time
- Integrated transaction infrastructure: Software and workflows embedded across touring, CRM, financing and closing that enable consumers and professionals to complete transactions within Zillow's platform
Zillow is applying intelligence across each stage of the housing journey, from discovery to closing, to improve consumer experiences and empower real estate professionals.
Financial outlook and mid-cycle targets
Zillow continues to execute across For Sale and Rentals. The company is reaffirming its first-quarter and full-year 2026 financial outlook and its mid-cycle financial targets while providing a new mid-cycle net income margin target.
- Reaffirming ranges for first quarter 2026 financial outlook: For the three months ending March 31, 2026, we expect:
- Total revenue of $700 million to $710 million
- Adjusted EBITDA1 of $160 million to $175 million
- Reaffirming full-year 2026 financial outlook: For the full year 2026, year over year we expect:
- Mid-teens total revenue growth, including Rentals revenue growth of approximately 30%
- Continued Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion
- Share-based compensation to decrease by more than 10%
- Reaffirming mid-cycle financial targets and providing mid-cycle net income margin target: For the mid-cycle, assuming a normalized housing market, we are targeting total revenue of $5 billion, Adjusted EBITDA margin of 45%, and net income margin of 25%.
Additional details will be provided during the event and in related presentation materials, which will be made available on the company's Investor Relations website.

1 We have not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) or forecasted Adjusted EBITDA margin to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) margin within this release because we are unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include but are not limited to: income taxes that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of our capital stock; depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions; impairments of assets; and acquisition-related costs. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forecasted GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP net income (loss) margin, are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are outside of our control.
