I know that Homes.com is a recent home search site. I saw the two poor reviews, is there anyone who has received leads in the amount promised?

Like any lead generation campaign, you will get the leads as described in the contracts they provide, but a lead does not mean a sale. It is up to the you to close the sale on leads that come in.

No! Never and they wouldn't stop charging me after multiple cancellations within the proper window!

I can't believe I signed up without checking reviews. I usually do a search with the name of a company and add the word "scam" to see what appears. Every lead that was given to me was never on Homes.com and the consumer did not want to be contacted by anyone. Even though the text message I receive from Homes.com says "GREAT NEWS! The consumer is requesting a real estate agent contact". What Homes.com does is deliver horrible leads from a third party "landing page". How it works is this. For this example, I will use the name, Linda. Linda wants to search for properties, but she isn't aware of Zillow, Trulia or Realtor.com so she does a google search for "MLS Search". The results produce some paid ads with a landing page. The landing page appears to be an MLS search tool but requires the consumer to enter their contact information in order to use the website. Once the consumer adds their contact information. Homes.com sends you the text "Great News! The consumer is requesting a real estate agent contact". This is the SCAM. When you call Linda she is confused and upset you are calling. Homes.com sold me on the idea that a consumer was on Homes.com looking at a property, in my paid zip code and is requesting more information about the home or to schedule a showing. I am fine with that type of lead and would pay a large amount of money for it. But this is not what they provide... The reality is the Homes.com website does not generate enough organic traffic to their site to generate leads so they use trickery to fool consumers to fill out a form on a third-party website and then say they provided you a lead. As of today, Homes.com only gets 131,000 page views a day. Compare this to Zillow at 5.1 Million and Realtor.com at 2.2 Million a day. I will reconsider paying for zip codes once Homes.com starts getting 2-3 million visitors a day so they don't have to use third-party companies to generate fake leads for us...
