Hello Zachary, I saw that the most recent updates dropped Zillow and RedFin scrapers. Just curious why, were they just too unreliable or was their data usually overlapping realtor?

The realtor data is better, and easier to get at scale. And there is no point in getting the same data from multiple sites when it's mostly all the same.
