What's the deal with Zillow in Utah?

[Russell Howes]

I know that Utah is a non-disclosure state, but I assumed a trend toward more openness when I saw recent sales prices on Zillow a few months ago. That was really helpful for me in understanding market trends, etc. and I was sad to see that Zillow stopped showing those prices about a month ago.

Does anybody know what changed (in the MLS or otherwise) to give Zillow (and I assume Redfin, realtor.com, etc) that access early this year, then take it away a month ago? Mainly just curious.

Disclaimer: I have an agent who is great with getting me information about a property when I ask, and who has several alerts setup with the Utah MLS. I'm not advocating for or against non-disclosure here (though I do have an opinion on it)

My I understanding is that Zillow became a brokerage and a member of the NAR, so they now have the ability to receive sold data directly from the MLS. The change occurred early 2021.
