New York AG Letitia James is seeking information on Compass’s $1.6 billion Anywhere deal amid antitrust and market share concerns.

Compass is leveraging cooperative MLSs to cut off listing feeds to Zillow because it cannot successfully compete on its own product merits or profitability. This self-serving strategy fragments the real estate market, harms consumer transparency and ultimately, threatens to dismantle the MLS system itself.

Bray Real Estate Group joins Compass in Texas, adding 100-plus agents and $475M in 2025 sales volume across DFW and Austin.

Bright MLS will add Compass nationwide listings feed and Compass will subsidize some subscriptions, with new flexibility coming this summer.
