Top 5 Safest Stocks To Own Right Now: Zillow Group, Inc.(ZG)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By Anders Bylund, Jeremy Bowman, and Rich Duprey]
Like its peer Zillow (NASDAQ:Z) (NASDAQ:ZG), Redfin is disrupting the real-estate market with online listings, but Redfin operates differently from Zillow. While Zillow relies on advertising from real-estate agents to drive its business, Redfin seeks to circumvent the traditional real-estate model by selling properties through its own agents and making the experience customer-centric by lowering commissions, incentivizing customer service, and using technology to make the search for a new home better and easier.

After accounting for costs and expenses from the offerings, that could bring Zillow's net windfall to nearly $725 million.
