Compass, Zillow reach settlement in poaching lawsuits

On the same day Compass was slapped with a bombshell lawsuit from rival Realogy accusing it of unfair business practices and illegal scheming, the real estate heavyweight settled a pair of lawsuits with another competitor, Zillow Group. The two companies came to an agreement in federal court Wednesday that dismissed two suits accusing Compass of poaching Zillow employees for its Seattle tech hub.
