Herman Jones LLP Announces Investigation for Investors in Zillow Group Inc.

Herman Jones LLP is Investigating Claims for Investors Who May Have Been Harmed by Zillow’s Possible False or Misleading Statements Regarding Zillow Offers

A lawsuit, styled Michael Blake Randolph v. Richard N. Barton, et al. (Case No. 2:22-cv-01000), was recently filed in federal court in the Western District of Washington against Zillow for violations of the Securities Act of 1934 in relation to statements regarding its Zillow Offers business. According to this Complaint, Zillow failed to make critical disclosures, including that: (i) Zillow Offers was buying homes at inflated prices to meet Zillow Offers’ volume goals; (ii) Zillow Offers was overriding its internal algorithms and pricing analysts in order to purchase homes at overinflated prices; (iii) Zillow Offers was engaging in cost-cutting measures that resulted in certain of its purchased homes not being renovated as initially intended; and (iv) Zillow was reasonably likely to wind down Zillow Offers due to these and other problems with the business, which would have a material adverse impact on Zillow’s financial results and prospects. Consequently, the Complaint maintains that Defendants’ positive statements about Zillow’s business, operations and financial outlook, including in its filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and disseminated to Zillow’s stockholders, were false or misleading.

Herman Jones LLP (www.hermanjones.com) is investigating potential claims on behalf of Zillow Group Inc. (NASDAQ: Z) against certain of its officers and directors relating to the allegations set forth in the lawsuit.
