This company doesn't provide any added value to an ordinary search of the internet

By Ginj I., Media, PA, Verified Reviewer

This is a complete waste of time and money. All I received were a couple of replies from realtors who obviously pay for this service. They were certainly not the "top" realtors in the area. I live in a county with 13,000 realtors, how could so few people respond?

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hey Ginj, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Agents do not pay to be apart of our site and neither do clients looking to buy or sell there home. Depending on your specific needs we will match you with agents in our database that fit those needs. Rural areas can be more difficult since there are a limit amount of agents in those areas. Have a great day!

They do not honor client requests

By Jeffrey B., Virginia, Verified Reviewer

I went online and filled out the brief introductory questionnaire. I didn't want to give them my phone, as this type of contact creates problems if called at inopportune times (it's my only phone, so it's with me at work and at home). I wrote a note that I did NOT wish to be contacted by phone, email only.

Since that time, I have received numerous phone calls and voice messages - as anticipated, many at times when it was completely inconvenient. I've also received several follow-up emails saying that they've tried to call me, so please call them back. I wrote back and told them that, due to their inability to follow my written request, I wished to be placed on their 'do not contact' list. I did this to each of their contacts (it's not just one and not just one phone number, although I've blocked each one after they've called).

Today, I received a text sent to my phone, again requesting I call them "ASAP" so they could get me the names of agents in my area. They obviously don't honor client's requests, so I can only imagine the type of "service" they provide if they can't follow this!

I will be following up with the Better Business Bureau with the next phone call. What a mistake to contact them!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great experience

By Frank L., Atlanta, GA, Verified Reviewer

When we decided to sell our house, we weren’t sure how to find a reliable real estate agent to represent us. We considered choosing one at random, a name off of a sign. We considered looking up a house that had sold near us and using that agent. Or calling a friend to see about a referral. None of those felt right. I went online and found HomeLight, read their information and decided that was the way to go. It turned out great. Within minutes of signing up, I received the names of three real estate agents who had a history of success in our area. Within a day I’d heard from all three and had set up interviews. Honestly, I could have gone with either of them. They were all strong and I felt no matter who we chose, we would have a good fit. We chose one and within 36 hours of listing, we had a contract. I highly recommend HomeLight as a way to narrow the field and find the right agent for your house sale.

HomeLight

By David N., Westhampton, NY, Verified Reviewer

My wife and I were very happy with the way My Domeika and Dena Mac Donald handled the sale of our condo in Fort Lauderdale. HomeLight refered us to Coldwell Banker real estate.

The company and the agents mentioned were especially very professional in handling all of our questions and concerns. They were able to sell our condo quickly for cash very close to our asking price. Their attention to detail along with a positive attitude helped us immensely.

We want to highly recommend HomeLight and the My and Dena Coldwell Banker team.

Best regards.

Recent home sale

HomeLight helps

By James C., Harper Woods, MI, Verified Reviewer

HomeLight was helpful in searching for a real estate agent that was in our area. Once we had the options of agents to assist us in selling our home, we looked at the choices and settled on one. The real estate agent that we were paired up with was very good. He took care of us and his staff guided us on every step of the way. We were not sure who we would get to sell our house. With HomeLight, we were able to research people out there to help us. Our real estate agent was very aggressive in making sure our house was sold. HomeLight was a very good tool to use to help search through all the possibilities that exist out there for a real estate agent. We would recommend them.

Thank you

By Jacquelyn B., Jacksonville, FL, Verified Reviewer

Thank you so much HomeLight. You recommended several agents and we went with Carole Knudson, she was a breath of fresh air. Out of the five great agents, we chose the best fit. She made the process so easy going and she listened to ALL recommendations we made. With that said, we looked at several houses online and visited six before we found the perfect home. Carole even recommended different people to seek out repairs, and that also went smoothly. She was so nice and familiar; we invited her to our housewarming we will be having in March of 2019. After two months of looking, we closed on December 7th, 2018 on the forever home we always wanted.

HomeLight did a great job vetting the right agents and we strongly recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect agent. I would strongly recommend going with someone who does this because they love it so they really take the time out to find you what you want.

Thank you so much HomeLight.

Agent selection made easy

By Jeff K., California, Verified Reviewer

When I decided to put my house up for sale, it was a daunting task to look through all the real estate agents out there. HomeLight simplified the process for me by providing a short list of agents that matched my needs. Their staff provided a brief summary of each agent they recommended and the links to detailed information. I was able to look at them even before speaking to any of the agents, I eventually chose an agent I felt most comfortable with. The agent was very knowledgeable and experienced with the local market. She helped me with every step of the selling process, and the house was sold quickly. I am very glad HomeLight was there to help me with agent selection.

HomeLight is excellent!

By Danielle S., O'Fallon, IL, Verified Reviewer

Initially, I wanted to sell my house on my own, but quickly discovered I needed more help than I thought. I simply googled "how to find a great realtor in my area" and an ad for HomeLight popped up, promising to find me an excellent realtor in no time. It was very easy to set up online and within minutes of submitting my information, I got a call from my HomeLight representative. He was extremely helpful, friendly, and thorough...making sure he had all the correct information. Minutes after the phone call with HomeLight, I got a call from three different realtors in the area and was able to pick which one I thought would best fit my needs. The recommended realtor was excellent and was able to sell my house within the designated time I specified, and now I'm happy in my new home! I would recommend HomeLight to anyone.

We were moving from Florida to Illinois and HomeLight found us the perfect match to sell our home!

By Ashley B., Beverly Hills, FL, Verified Reviewer

The service HomeLight provided was wonderful. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They offered to send me our local options, so we were able to interview them. They emailed me the list of realtors immediately after our call. The realtor that they recommended as their top choice was able to sell our home in only 11 days! Wonderful! HomeLight called us back a week after our initial conversation to make sure I was satisfied with our choices or if we were interested in another updated list of realtors. I highly recommend HomeLight.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
