Which Real Estate Technology Platform Stock to Buy Now?

Long
NASDAQ:ZG   Zillow Group, Inc.
Which real estate technology platform to buy?
$ZG Zillow Group, $OPEN Opendoor Technologies, $EXPI eXp World Holdings or $RDFN Redfin Corporation

There is no doubt all of the above-mentioned companies are good ones and they will do well in the long term, but at this particular time, the confluence of the technical analysis signals and valuation analysis shows that $ZG is a better choice if it breaks above and closes on a high volume. The setup still will be valid and must be revised if the price of $ZG slips down more, but sooner or later the breakout should trigger a very safe entry.

Interestingly, even though $ZG is the largest of all four, it has a higher gross margin and its revenue growth (50%) is smaller than $OPEN (81%) only for 2022. However, $ZG has the smallest EV/GP ratio for both 2021 and 2022 at 10.1 and 8.2 respectively. This makes $ZG a very good deal for the size and reputation it has as well as for the growth it is developing. $OPEN still remains a company that has the highest growth rate, but since it just IPOed last year and except the last QE the negative pressure on the price was a lot since it was a SPAC deal. The pressure on the SPAC stocks was brutal and some of them barely survived above 10. $OPEN is one of them that was picked up by the market as a worthy stock and not a bad SPAC rip-off deal. Unlike Zillow that has gained reputation and maturity in the public market, $OPEN needs more time and more QEs to justify the high growth rates.

Disclaimer: I own a lot of $OPEN and some $EXPI and I am going to initiate a new position on $ZG in the near future. This is not trading or investment advice. Do your own due diligence. Don't risk money you cannot lose.
