With a stated purpose of “evolving how it shows up as a brand,” Zillow announced on Thursday the launch of a new platform and campaign under the tagline “Someday Starts Today,” which is “designed to support people at every stage of the home journey, from those ready to move now to those still only imagining what’s possible,” according to a statement from the portal.
Debuting on Feb. 1 during the Grammy Awards broadcast, Zillow calls the change “a strategic expansion of Zillow’s brand approach,” designed to support those who are actively moving and to build confidence in future movers.
“Everyone’s home journey looks different, but progress is what moves it forward,” said Beverly W. Jackson, vice president of brand and product marketing at Zillow. “‘Someday Starts Today’ reflects our commitment to meet people where they are and recognize every step forward, because even small progress matters.”
In its announcement, Zillow acknowledged the “affordability challenges and economic uncertainty” that have changed buyer behavior and said that it is seeking to speak to “the in-between moment” in its new campaign: the “browsing, planning and dreaming” that it calls “meaningful parts of the home journey” and “early signals of intent” rather than passive behavior.
“For Zillow, the campaign reflects a broader belief that brand leadership in today’s housing market means understanding where consumers are emotionally, not just where they are transactionally,” according to the statement.
Affordability has become a major hurdle for buyers across the U.S., and the median age of first-time homebuyers in particular has risen to 40, the highest ever, in 2025, up from the late 20s in the 1980s, according to a recent report from NAR.
