If you're in the market for a home, good luck.

It can be really difficult right now.

Those online listing sites have become an essential part of buying a home.

Sites like Zillow and Redfin list thousands of homes for sale across the country.

And for homebuyers, these sites can be a treasure trove of information.

Everything from how many days a home has been on the market to how many other buyers have viewed the listing.

But one real estate brokerage wants to change how the system works to give more power and flexibility to sellers and in the process, upend the way real estate is done.

That brokerage is Compass.

Instead, the company is focusing on private listings and limiting what information is shared with buyers.

But this strategy has created a giant rift in real estate.

Welcome to The Journal, our show about money, business, and power.

I'm Jessica Mendoza.

It's Monday, December 15th.

Coming up on the show, how Compass is trying to change the way you buy and sell your home.
