TruliaReviews 160

We used Trulia to help purchase a coastal home. Our realtor Debbie O'Donnell works for Exit Realty and had been working with us for two years. She is Awesome and has become a true friend to us. We knew we could count on her whenever we needed to view homes that we located on Trulia with just a text msg to her.
We live in San Antonio and trying to find a Coastal home almost 200miles away would not have been possible without her.
If you are looking for a home in Corpus Christi, TX please look her up.

Warning: DO NOT USE TRULIA To "Request Info with 1-Click"

Trulia is aiding and abetting fraud by allowing unknown, unverified "agents" to post false listings and collect information on users for scamming purposes. I was recently a victim of a sophisticated scam operation from through a direct email from someone I believed to be a home owner on Trulia. I request info on the listing and the person contacted me with a very sophisticated scam. I was stupid enough to trust this person but it was mainly because it was listed on Trulia and Trulia provided no warnings of such behavior, not even in their terms of use.

In addition, I was "requesting info" on the property. This does not equate to sharing information with an unidentifiable scammer in another country. This is extremely misleading and dangerous. This is a complete breach of privacy as I did not give Trulia to send my info to someone who they cannot vouch for or even provide information on after the fact.

Trulia refuses to provide the information on person who received my contact information (name, email phone number). This policy is extremely one-sided and dangerous. They are allowing scammers by the troves to hide behind their service. They have no reason not to share the information of both parties exchanging information, especially in the case of fraud.

This is a warning to everyone - there is no reason to trust Trulia in any way, especially with their Request Info feature. Do NOT USE THIS. If anything, call the agent directly before providing your information through this feature.

I applied for a home with Trulia who stated it was still available so after I pay $60 twice for the application fee( and they make you pay $60 per each adult) so after paying $120 all of a sudden the house I was interested in suddenly had a completed application from another client and was off the market so I couldnt find any other homes at the time that I liked so I asked for a refund and they said it was non refundable. Dont waste your time or money with these people! Rip off!

I have been looking for a retirement home out of state for almost two years. I had mistakenly put my trust in trulia that they were giving me honest and truthful representation of properties and the communities they list on their sight.
I checked neighborhoods, population, crime rates, and housing prices
We bought a home in Oregon, small town, almost no crime "according to trulia"
Moderate climate, after a short time we started talking to the locals and found out that burglary was rampant due to the fact that Oregon has a major Heroin Epidemic that has infested the north west. Not only is burglary common but so is armed robbery, assault muggings, murder and car jacking is on the rise. The crime rate here is much worse than in the big cities of Kalifornia when compared with the population. ( our area has the second highest crime rate per capita in Oregon!
The information on trulia out right lied about theses conditions on their home listings
So we moved from a big city, into a small town with a crime rate that is as bad as any big city getto.
Moral to my story: always check your home listings with out side sources, because trulia lies on their listings.

Unreal to acquire about an apartment and get no response other than text asking to connect at a certain time. Then there is no call. Also I was asked to give personal information over text without speaking to a person. This is not how you do business. Do NOT use this app and have them remove your name from your email or they will continue to send notifications. People renting these apartments and houses should really check their information before they use this site. SCAM!

Emailed inquires for several apartments. Real Estate agents never got back to me. Called up the real estate agent, Theresa Bruno, personally. Her daughter picked up said an agent will call me the next day before 10 am. I never received a call and I called back left a mesage never got the phone call either. I have an emotional support dog for my child which housing is not allowed to deny by law she basically shut me down and said she had nothing available which on the site clearly showed several apartments for the range I was looking for. Her broker fee is 10% of your yearly rent which is ridiculous. I would never refer anyone to this site. Also some of the apartments have the wrong priceing. Truly Horrible is what they should name this site. It doesn't deserve any stars

Ive been trying to use both Trulia and Zillow to find a rental property and if you are lucky enough to actually get a response for the person you are trying to rent from good luck actually getting a showing. I have now drove an hour and half 5 times to find a new place to live where my new job is located. Every showing I have been lucky enough to actually schedule has now been canceled on me that day sometimes only 30 mins prior to the showing this is ridiculous I would love for someone to actually pay me back foe waisting my time, energy and not to meant the crazy amount of gas Ive had to put in my car to try and make it to these showing's. No one that uses these site to rent out properties has any respect for anyone. Good luck to any one who goes to there sites with hopes of actually trying to find something to rent.
