Despite the ruling, Zillow said it looks forward to presenting its case to a jury and is "confident that the evidence will show that REX’s business failed for reasons unrelated to Zillow."

U.S. District Court Judge in Washington dismisses REX Real Estate's antitrust claims against NAR and Zillow on Wednesday.

Judge finds NAR failed to provide facts to show how the discount brokerage harmed the trade group's reputation with its own members and consumers.

Discount brokerage's antitrust claims survive after judge concludes REX "plausibly alleges that Zillow changed its websites because of NAR’s rules."
