Zillow purchased Mortgage Lenders of America in November 2018 and now is officially launching Zillow Home Loans as they rebrand; previously prospective home buyers had access to other firms offering mortgages as they browsed the site; Zillow also plans to use the lender in order to offer financing through their Zillow Offers platform as well; Zillow has gone a transformation since 2015 when their former CEO Spencer Rascoff said the company was a media company selling ads, not houses.
