Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Lease Commitments During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not enter into any material new leases, lease renewals, or lease modifications. On September 25, 2020, the Company exercised an option to early terminate the San Francisco headquarters lease, effective September 30, 2021. In September 2020, the Company did not anticipate returning to the San Francisco space, so the Company accelerated amortization of the right-of-use asset and incurred and paid early termination fees. In January 2021, the Company terminated the San Francisco lease prior to the anticipated termination date of September 30, 2021, which resulted in a $5.2 million gain recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Legal Matters From time to time, the Company may be subject to potential liability relating to the ownership and operations of the Company’s properties. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. There are various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business pending against the Company, some of which seek damages and other relief which, if granted, may require future cash expenditures. In addition, from time to time the Company receives inquiries and audit requests from various government agencies and fully cooperates with these requests. The Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that the resolution of these matters would result in any liability that would materially affect the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations or financial condition except as noted below. As previously disclosed by the Company, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) has been conducting an investigation into the Company since August 2019. The inquiry related primarily to statements in the Company's advertising and website comparing selling homes to the Company with selling homes in a traditional manner using an agent and relating to statements that the Company’s offers reflect or are based on market prices. The Company and the FTC have been discussing resolution of this matter since December 2020. In February and June 2022, the Company met with the FTC Commissioners to explain its responses to the allegations and settlement proposals. After further negotiations, the Company has agreed to enter into a consent order that would resolve all aspects of the inquiry. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has accrued $62 million for this matter.
