Zillow brings specialized housing intelligence to Claude, with a path to tours, agents and financing
Why this matters
Capital markets activity continues to be defined by the rotation from bank balance sheets to non-bank lenders. Private credit funds have raised record dry powder; banks have tightened CRE underwriting standards for the sixth consecutive quarter. The result is a market where well-sponsored deals clear, and marginal credit pays a meaningful spread to do so. Seattle absorption has been weighed down by tech tenant footprint optimization. Multifamily and industrial have been more resilient, with selective bids on best-located product. For LPs, the allocation conversation has shifted decisively toward real estate debt, with equity allocations being deployed more selectively into operator-led platforms.
