Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties
We operate in a dynamic industry and, accordingly, can be affected by a variety of factors, which are uncertain and difficult to predict. For example, we believe that potential changes in any of the following areas may have a significant impact on us in terms of our future financial position, results of operations or cash flows: the health and stability of the economy and United States residential real estate industry, including changes in inflationary conditions, interest rates, housing availability and affordability, labor shortages and supply chain issues; our ability to navigate industry changes, including as a result of past, pending or future lawsuits, settlements or government investigations; uncertainties related to policy changes, enforcement priorities, or government shutdowns at the federal and state levels; our ability to manage advertising, product inventory and pricing, and to maintain relationships with our real estate partners; our ability to comply with current and future rules and requirements promulgated by NAR, MLSs, or other real estate industry groups or governing bodies, and to maintain or establish relationships with listing and data providers; changes to our rights to use or timely access listing data, or to the quality or quantity of such listing data; our investment of resources to pursue strategies and develop new products and services that may not prove effective or that are not attractive for customers and real estate partners or that do not allow us to compete successfully; our ability to operate and grow the mortgage operations of Zillow Home Loans, our affiliate lender, including the ability to obtain or maintain sufficient financing and resell originated mortgages on the secondary market; the duration and impact of natural disasters, climate change, geopolitical events, and other catastrophic events (including public health crises) on our ability to operate, demand for our products or services, or general economic conditions; outcomes of legal proceedings and government investigations; our ability to attract, engage, and retain a highly skilled workforce; protection of Zillow Group’s information and systems against security breaches or disruptions in operations; reliance on third-party services to support
critical functions of our business; protection of our brand and intellectual property; and changes in laws or government regulation affecting our business, among other things.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include Zillow Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in Zillow Group, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements of Zillow Group, Inc. as of that date. Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2026 and our results of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026, for any interim period, or for any other future year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the accounting for certain revenue offerings, amortization period and recoverability of contract cost assets, website and software development costs, recoverability of long-lived assets and intangible assets, share-based compensation, income taxes, business combinations, including the initial and subsequent fair value measurements of assets (primarily intangible assets) and liabilities, and the recoverability of goodwill, among others. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected. The health of the housing market and broader economy may result in additional uncertainty with respect to estimates, judgments and assumptions, which may materially impact the estimates previously listed, among others.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that will require disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses included within an entity’s consolidated financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet determined the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance that modernizes the accounting for internal-use software costs by removing all references to project development stages. Under this guidance, eligible software development costs begin capitalization once management has authorized and committed to funding the project and it is probable the project will be completed and used to perform the function intended. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied on a prospective, retrospective or modified basis, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet determined the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued guidance that improves the navigability of interim reporting guidance and clarifies when it applies. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet determined the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Financial Instruments Financial Instruments
We apply the following methods and assumptions in estimating our fair value measurements:
Cash equivalents — The fair value measurement of money market funds is based on quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1). The fair value measurement of other cash equivalents is based on observable market-based inputs principally derived from or corroborated by observable market data (Level 2).
Short-term investments — The fair value measurement of our short-term investments is based on observable market-based inputs or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (Level 2).
Restricted cash — The carrying value of restricted cash approximates fair value due to the short period of time that amounts are held in escrow (Level 1).
Mortgage loans held for sale — The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell mortgage loans with similar characteristics (Level 2).
Forward contracts — The fair value of mandatory loan sales commitments and derivative instruments such as forward sales of MBSs that are utilized as economic hedging instruments is calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets (Level 2).
Contingent consideration — In December 2023, Zillow Group acquired Follow Up Boss for $399 million in cash, net of cash acquired, and contingent consideration of up to $100 million, payable over a three-year period upon achievement of certain performance metrics. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we paid $33 million in cash each period to settle the first and second earn out payments, most of which represented settlement of the acquisition date fair value. The fair value of the contingent consideration is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation which considers the probabilities of the achievement of certain performance metrics (Level 3).
The discount rates used in our valuation of contingent consideration are based on our estimated cost of debt and are directly related to the fair value of contingent consideration. An increase in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. Conversely, a decrease in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement. The probabilities of achieving the relevant performance metrics used in our valuation of contingent consideration are directly related to the fair value of contingent consideration, as an increase in the probability, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement. Conversely, a decrease in the probability, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no material changes in the unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of contingent consideration included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
IRLCs — The fair value of IRLCs is calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell mortgage loans with similar characteristics. Expired commitments are excluded from the fair value measurement. Since not all IRLCs will become closed loans, we adjust our fair value measurements for the estimated amount of IRLCs that will not close. This adjustment is effected through the pull-through rate, which represents the probability that an IRLC will ultimately result in a closed loan. For IRLCs that are canceled or expire, any recorded gain or loss is reversed at the end of the commitment period (Level 3).
The pull-through rate is based on estimated changes in market conditions, loan stage and historical borrower behavior. Pull-through rates are directly related to the fair value of IRLCs as an increase in the pull-through rate, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement. Conversely, a decrease in the pull-through rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. Changes in the fair value of IRLCs are included within revenue in our condensed
consolidated statements of operations. The following table presents the ranges and weighted-average pull-through rates used in determining the fair value of IRLCs as of the dates presented:
March 31, 2026December 31, 2025
Range
45% - 100%
47% - 100%
Weighted-average85%86%
We manage our interest rate risk related to IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale through the use of derivative instruments, generally forward contracts on MBSs, which are commitments to either purchase or sell a financial instrument at a future date for a specified price, and mandatory loan commitments, which are an obligation by an investor to buy loans at a specified price within a specified time period. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes, and our derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of our derivative financial instruments are recognized in revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Revolving Credit Facility
On January 30, 2026, Zillow Group entered into a $500 million Revolving Credit Facility by and among Zillow Group, MFTB Holdco, Inc., Zillow, Inc. (the “Borrower”), the lenders from time to time party thereto, Goldman Sachs Bank USA as administrative agent and as issuing bank, and other issuing banks from time to time party thereto. The Revolving Credit Facility may be increased by up to an additional $250 million subject to the terms of the credit agreement. Revolving loans on the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate based on either an alternative base rate, as defined in the credit agreement, or SOFR, in each case plus an applicable margin, depending on Zillow Group’s total net leverage ratio. Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility until January 30, 2031, at which time all amounts borrowed must be repaid. Revolving loans may be prepaid, and revolving loan commitments may be permanently reduced by the Borrower in whole or in part, without penalty or premium.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including a total net leverage ratio financial covenant. The negative covenants include restrictions on the incurrence of liens and indebtedness, certain investments and acquisitions, dividends, stock repurchases, transactions with affiliates and other matters, all subject to certain exceptions. The Borrower’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by Zillow Group, MFTB Holdco, Inc. and certain of the Borrower’s subsidiaries. The Borrower’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and such guarantors, subject to customary exclusions.
We have not drawn any amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2026. Borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility will be classified within long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
We are subject to income taxes in the United States (federal and state) and certain foreign jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have provided a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets that we believe, based on the weight of available evidence, are not more likely than not to be realized. We have accumulated federal tax losses of approximately $1.8 billion as of December 31, 2025, which are available to reduce future taxable income. We have accumulated state tax losses of approximately $70 million (tax effected) as of December 31, 2025.
Our income tax expense or benefit for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account for the relevant period. We update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate on a quarterly basis and make year-to-date adjustments to the tax provision or benefit, as applicable. Income tax expense was not material for the three month periods ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.

Legal Proceedings
We are involved in a number of legal proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of our business activities, some of which are at preliminary stages and some of which seek an indeterminate amount of damages. We regularly evaluate the status of legal proceedings in which we are involved to assess whether a loss is probable or there is a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional loss may have been incurred to determine if accruals are appropriate. We further evaluate each legal proceeding to assess whether an estimate of possible loss or range of loss can be made if accruals are not appropriate. For certain cases described below, management is unable to provide a meaningful estimate of the possible loss or
range of possible loss because, among other reasons, (i) the proceedings are in preliminary stages; (ii) specific damages have not been sought; (iii) damages sought are, in our view, unsupported and/or exaggerated; (iv) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (v) there are significant factual issues to be resolved; and/or (vi) there are novel legal issues or unsettled legal theories presented. For these cases, however, management does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcomes of these proceedings will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flow. For the matters discussed below, we have not recorded any material accruals as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.
On September 17, 2019, International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”) filed a complaint against us in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, alleging, among other things, that the Company has infringed and continues to willfully infringe seven patents held by IBM and seeks unspecified damages, including a request that the amount of compensatory damages be trebled, injunctive relief and costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Our motion to transfer venue to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington (the “Court”) was granted on May 28, 2020. On November 25, 2022, Zillow filed a motion to join an Inter Partes Review (“IPR”) petition within Ebates Performance Mktg., Inc. d/b/a Rakuten Rewards v. Intl Bus. Machs. Corp. (“Rakuten IPR”), IPR2022-00646 concerning one patent in this action, which the Court granted on April 20, 2023. On October 11, 2023, the U.S. Patent and Trial Appeal Board (“PTAB”) ruled on the Rakuten IPR finding the claims of the patent asserted against Zillow unpatentable. IBM appealed the PTAB’s decision on November 21, 2023 (the “PTAB Appeal”), and cross appeals were filed by Ebates Performance Marketing Inc. on November 21, 2023 and by us on December 15, 2023. On March 20, 2024, IBM voluntarily dismissed all claims filed in this action against Zillow with prejudice, with the exception of those pertaining to the patent asserted within the pending PTAB Appeal. On June 21, 2024 we filed our response to the PTAB Appeal. On July 30, 2024, IBM filed its reply in further support of the PTAB Appeal. On September 3, 2024, we filed our reply in further support of our cross-appeal. On December 9, 2025, the Federal Circuit issued an order affirming the October 11, 2023 PTAB decision in full. On April 17, 2026, we filed our motion for summary judgment. There is a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred related to this matter; however, the possible loss or range of loss is not estimable. We deny the allegations of any wrongdoing and intend to vigorously defend the claims in the lawsuit.
On November 16, 2021, November 19, 2021 and January 6, 2022, three purported class action lawsuits were filed against us and certain of our executive officers, alleging, among other things, violations of federal securities laws on behalf of a class of those who purchased our stock between August 7, 2020 and November 2, 2021. The three purported class action lawsuits, captioned Barua v. Zillow Group, Inc. et al., Silverberg v. Zillow Group, et al. and Hillier v. Zillow Group, Inc. et al. were brought in the Court and were consolidated on February 16, 2022 (the “Federal Securities Suit”). On May 12, 2022, the plaintiffs filed their amended consolidated complaint which alleges, among other things, that we issued materially false and misleading statements regarding our Zillow Offers business. The complaints seek to recover, among other things, alleged damages sustained by the purported class members as a result of the alleged misconduct. On December 7, 2022, the Court rendered its decision granting our previously filed motion to dismiss, in part, and denying the motion, in part. On January 23, 2023, we filed our answer to the consolidated complaint. On March 14, 2024, plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, which was granted on August 23, 2024. On September 6, 2024, we filed a petition for permission to appeal the class certification order, on September 16, 2024, plaintiffs filed their opposition to our petition, and on September 23, 2024, we filed our reply in further support of the petition. On October 24, 2024, the Ninth Circuit issued an order granting Zillow permission to appeal. On November 1, 2024, the Court issued an order staying the Federal Securities Suit pending the outcome of the appeal, which was extended on October 10, 2025. On January 8, 2025, we filed our opening brief in the appeal. On March 10, 2025, plaintiffs filed their response brief, and on April 30, 2025, we filed our reply brief. On September 26, 2025, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the Court’s class certification. On October 24, 2025, we filed an en banc petition before the Ninth Circuit seeking rehearing of the Ninth Circuit’s September 26, 2025 decision. On January 6, 2026, the Ninth Circuit issued an order denying Zillow’s en banc petition. There is a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred related to this matter; however, the possible loss or range of loss is not estimable. We deny the allegations of any wrongdoing and intend to vigorously defend the claims in this consolidated lawsuit.
On March 10, 2022, May 5, 2022, July 20, 2022 and October 31, 2024, shareholder derivative suits were filed in the Court and on July 25, 2022, a shareholder derivative suit was filed in the Superior Court of the State of Washington, King County, against us and certain of our executive officers and directors seeking unspecified damages on behalf of the Company and certain other relief, such as reform to corporate governance practices. The plaintiffs (including the Company as a nominal defendant) allege, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maintain an effective system of internal controls, which purportedly caused the losses the Company incurred when it decided to wind down Zillow Offers operations. Plaintiffs also allege, among other things, violations of Section 14(a) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, insider trading and waste of corporate assets. On August 23, 2023, a second shareholder derivative suit was filed in the Superior Court of the State of Washington, King County. These shareholder derivative lawsuits have since been stayed by the relevant courts and they remain stayed as of March 31, 2026. There is a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred related to this
matter; however, the possible loss or range of loss is not estimable. The defendants deny the allegations of any wrongdoing and vigorously defend the claims in these lawsuits.
On September 30, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against Zillow Group, Inc., Zillow, Inc., and Redfin Corporation. On October 1, 2025, the Attorneys General of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the States of Arizona, Connecticut, New York, and Washington filed a similar complaint against the same parties in the same court. The complaints allege that the partnership entered into between Zillow and Redfin on February 6, 2025, harmed competition for online multifamily rental-listings in violation of federal antitrust laws. The plaintiffs seek injunctive and other equitable relief. We filed our motion to dismiss on January 13, 2026. Plaintiffs filed their opposition to our motion to dismiss on February 3, 2026. On February 12, 2026, we filed our reply in further support of our motion to dismiss and on February 25, 2026, a hearing was held on the motion. We deny the allegations of any wrongdoing and intend to vigorously defend the claims in these lawsuits.
In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time, we are involved in litigation and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although we cannot be certain of the outcome of any such litigation or claims, nor the amount of damages and exposure that we could incur, we currently believe that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flow. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into contractual arrangements under which we agree to provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters. For additional information regarding our indemnifications, see Note 13 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2026 and our results of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026, for any interim period, or for any other future year.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the accounting for certain revenue offerings, amortization period and recoverability of contract cost assets, website and software development costs, recoverability of long-lived assets and intangible assets, share-based compensation, income taxes, business combinations, including the initial and subsequent fair value measurements of assets (primarily intangible assets) and liabilities, and the recoverability of goodwill, among others. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected. The health of the housing market and broader economy may result in additional uncertainty with respect to estimates, judgments and assumptions, which may materially impact the estimates previously listed, among others.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that will require disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses included within an entity’s consolidated financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet determined the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance that modernizes the accounting for internal-use software costs by removing all references to project development stages. Under this guidance, eligible software development costs begin capitalization once management has authorized and committed to funding the project and it is probable the project will be completed and used to perform the function intended. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied on a prospective, retrospective or modified basis, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet determined the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued guidance that improves the navigability of interim reporting guidance and clarifies when it applies. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We have not yet determined the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurements
We apply the following methods and assumptions in estimating our fair value measurements:
Cash equivalents — The fair value measurement of money market funds is based on quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1). The fair value measurement of other cash equivalents is based on observable market-based inputs principally derived from or corroborated by observable market data (Level 2).
Short-term investments — The fair value measurement of our short-term investments is based on observable market-based inputs or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (Level 2).
Restricted cash — The carrying value of restricted cash approximates fair value due to the short period of time that amounts are held in escrow (Level 1).
Mortgage loans held for sale — The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell mortgage loans with similar characteristics (Level 2).
Forward contracts — The fair value of mandatory loan sales commitments and derivative instruments such as forward sales of MBSs that are utilized as economic hedging instruments is calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets (Level 2).
Contingent consideration — In December 2023, Zillow Group acquired Follow Up Boss for $399 million in cash, net of cash acquired, and contingent consideration of up to $100 million, payable over a three-year period upon achievement of certain performance metrics. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we paid $33 million in cash each period to settle the first and second earn out payments, most of which represented settlement of the acquisition date fair value. The fair value of the contingent consideration is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation which considers the probabilities of the achievement of certain performance metrics (Level 3).
The discount rates used in our valuation of contingent consideration are based on our estimated cost of debt and are directly related to the fair value of contingent consideration. An increase in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. Conversely, a decrease in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement. The probabilities of achieving the relevant performance metrics used in our valuation of contingent consideration are directly related to the fair value of contingent consideration, as an increase in the probability, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement. Conversely, a decrease in the probability, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no material changes in the unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of contingent consideration included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
IRLCs — The fair value of IRLCs is calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell mortgage loans with similar characteristics. Expired commitments are excluded from the fair value measurement. Since not all IRLCs will become closed loans, we adjust our fair value measurements for the estimated amount of IRLCs that will not close. This adjustment is effected through the pull-through rate, which represents the probability that an IRLC will ultimately result in a closed loan. For IRLCs that are canceled or expire, any recorded gain or loss is reversed at the end of the commitment period (Level 3).
The pull-through rate is based on estimated changes in market conditions, loan stage and historical borrower behavior. Pull-through rates are directly related to the fair value of IRLCs as an increase in the pull-through rate, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement. Conversely, a decrease in the pull-through rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. Changes in the fair value of IRLCs are included within revenue in our condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
