Real Estate agents. Craigslist to some extent.
Generally speaking the biggest competitor to any innovate website is the status quo and apathy. Every startup I have ever been in had a harder fight against people that were reluctant to move to better technology than against our direct competitors.

A staggering amount of money is funneled through that profession, which as I understand it exercises guild-like control over the MLS databases.
