I started this post last Saturday and couldn't finish it. Since then $RDFN has gone from $71.50 to $82.70
That is a 15% increase in a week.
Earnings are coming up in the next week or so.
$RDFN has $Z and $OPEN as competitors but its not an apples to apples comparison.

$RDFN is a fully integrated company that offers salaried agents, title services, lending services and more.
Let's start with the salaried agents part where they receive a a base salary plus bonus instead of a commission and even have healthcare and other benefits.

This brings equality to the sales process because agents aren't just motivated by the total price of a home and will end up giving better customer service to lower priced homes.
$RDFN is able to use this model to offer a higher level of customer service. A long term investment.

$RDFN also incentivizes home buyers and sellers to use then again and again as they offer a discount to repeat customers. This is unique to $RDFN
And their rates are already lower for the industry.

On a valuation basis $RDFN is cheap compared to $Z.
Zillow has a market cap of $36 bilion to Redfins $8 billion market cap.
$RDFN revenue is approaching $1 bil vs $Z approaching $3 bil. That alone helps convince me that $RDFN is the better buy.
