"Zillow Introduces Individual Room Rentals to Alleviate Housing Expenses"
Zillow has launched a new feature allowing users to search for individual room listings, aiming to help renters find more affordable housing options as housing costs continue to rise. With rent and home prices up significantly since the start of the pandemic, more Americans are turning to roommates to cut housing expenses. The new feature, available nationwide, is especially popular in larger cities where affordability remains a challenge. This move is seen as a way to provide more affordable options for renters and help homeowners offset mortgage costs.
