Zillow Drops Climate Risk Scores: Industry Pressure or a Tactical Move?
In a surprising move, Zillow has removed climate risk scores from its home listings, redirecting users to First Street's website for climate information instead. This decision, implemented in November 2025, has stirred debates over transparency, industry pressure, and potential impacts on the real estate market. While Zillow cites compliance with MLS requirements as a key reason, critics argue it potentially limits consumer access to important data, sparking discussions on the broader implications for buyers, sellers, and the industry's approach to climate risk.
