Trulia

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.

I once had a ton of credit card debt, went to a debt consolidation company for help (and they did!). However, when they paid off the balance of one of my cards, they didn't take into account a tiny bit of interest that accrued between the time they got the payoff amount and the time it was actually paid off. Fast forward a month and I get my statement. I think it's paid off so I ignored it. Another month, and I do likewise. Fast forward a few more months and I get a nasty call from the credit card company. It turns out I was something like 5 or 6 months late on about a $4.00 debt, even though months prior something like $15,000 or so was paid off. That blemish stayed on my credit score for years and affected my score so badly coupled with an eviction on my profile. Some couple of weeks back I was surfing the internet on credit repair site and for some reason I kept bumping into this credit repair freak REPAIR WIZARD, I saved his contact (*******@GMAIL.COM, *******516) and identified with him as it were. I explained the situation and he assured me of a clean and safe credit repair process. Well after about a week, he cleared all the credit card debt, deleted the eviction on my profile and eventually raised my score to a very high 700s. I can't help but wonder how amazing it seems to be back on track again for good. Hit him up and be happy.

If you are looking for snake oil, Trulia is for you! If you are a Realtor and looking for lead generation, DO NOT FALL FOR TRULIA's lies! They are worse than the stereotype for car salesman, politicians and lawyers! My experience with Truia was they would sign me up for this special promotion 6 month and get back to me by the end of the week to make sure everything was set up correctly. I never heard from them again... until they wanted to sign me up for something else. Then the run around got fun. Asked to speak to managers, no body would talk to me. The sales guy I got suckered by won't return phone calls or emails. The one guy who did respond to my request for a refund because the did not generate ONE SINGLE LEAD, either phone or email to me, said they never promised that... but he would listen to the recorded call and see if there was any misleading. Never heard from him again. Then quite by accident, as I was looking for a way to review them... I stumbled onto a recorded message place on Trulia. I had received several confusing phone calls. NOT identified by Trulia as they said. These calls were random calls from people who wanted to rent an apartment (I sell Real Estate, not property manage) in a remote community 3 hours away! They had somehow linked me to something NOT REAL ESTATE oriented. Not in my community and not lead generating! REALTORS, don't fall for it! Spend your money elsewhere. Throw it in the toilet for the good it will do you. These guys are snake oil salesman.

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'm 30 years old and in my twenties, I rarely check my credit reports. After a few years, I figured out how to get them and noticed that one of the agencies listed two SSNs - mine plus one unfamiliar one. And there were credit accounts I didn't recognize. It turned out that there was someone else with my exact same name, same birthplace, and around my age. They decided it was too hard to parse between us so they listed our credit information all on the same report. It really had an adverse effect on my profile, because the other person wasn't just as good about keeping up with bills as I was. Although it wasn't fraud, as far as I know this other person had nothing to do with the mix up. But, when I called the agency, their representative's attitude was "This isn't a problem, we are sorry your score was affected and we will fix it." I waited for almost 12 moths and nothing was done to fix it. While they were so reluctant to clean up their own error, I had an idea of contacting a credit specialist called Credit Specialist (*******@GMAIL.COM, *******132), his good work was all over trusted credit repair sites. I brought him up to speed on the situation and he carefully accessed the credit reporting agency database and separated the 2 profiles. He deleted the late payments affecting my score and raised my score to 791 and that was amazing. Its 4 months now and the changes are still permanent because he had to verify the changes with the agencies after fixing the problem. You are free to contact him for your credit repairs.

I have to reveal this testimony how I got my credit score raised to 792 and all negative marks on my credit report cleared by RAYLINK CYBER SERVICES. Do well to contact him on *******@GMAIL.COM

I purchased my home in 2002 and have been living in the same house since then. I recently decided to look up previous sales on my home and came across an erroneous sale on my home in 2011 on Trulia and Zillow. I contacted both Zillow and Trulia, and Zillow immediately took down the sale after checking with our local county records. Trulia, well that was a very different experience. I was told by Trulia customer service that "these pieces of data are collected and aggregated by these third party data providers through bulk batches containing millions of data points at one time." They don't enter, edit or update any of the information on their site nor do they know who these third party data providers are. This is scary because anyone can enter a bogus sale for your home or mistakenly apply a real sale to the wrong house on some site, and it could appear on Trulia. The sad news is that you can't ever fix it because Trulia can't track where the data comes from. The sale could be less than half of what your house is worth and bring down your home's and neighborhood's value - which is what happened to us. Now, they cannot remove this fictitious sale on my house. This site should be taken down until they get their house in order. They are sharing information that is readily available to the public about private properties and their data should be pristine. They should absolutely know where their data comes from, be able to track the source of every data element on their site, and have a process for removing inaccurate information ASAP.
I would urge all property owners to check your property's information on Trulia to ensure you don't run into issues when selling or refinancing your home.

I have tried almost a dozen websites like Trulia and Trulia hands down has the HIGHEST DENSITY OF SCAMS per listing of them all. I live in Denver and the market for renters has become rapidly very tough and it can be hard to find something in your budget if you make less than 70k. I was initially excited to see that Trulia had so many affordable listings near my partner's place of work (I drive, he doesn't). A couple of these listings were ridiculously cheap, which I figured were probably scams, but all the others I had no reason to suspect were anything other than good deals that I should pounce on immediately. I contacted at least 13 "property managers." As it turns out, I have received responses from about 75% of the "property managers" that I have contacted and 100% of those responses were outright attempted scams. I was able to flag and have these listings taken down, but my time spent on Trulia was completely wasted as I was put in contact with zero legitimate rentals within my budget (and I know for a fact that my budget is not THAT low). Trulia has absolutely zero infrastructure in place to screen potential listers, which is actually worse than Craigslist, a non-profit entity.

I am grateful to *******@GMAIL.COM. He is trustworthy and exceptional after he got my credit report fixed permanently. The first credit repair company I contacted wasted 4months of my time without positive changes to my credit report but, just 12days after I subscribed to the services of RAYLINK, I quickly noticed my credit score has been raised to 785, late payments, collections, eviction, bankruptcy and credit card debts all cleared from my credit report. Big thanks to RAYLINK CYBER SERVICES.

My name is Craig Smith. I've been scammed a few times already and I'm very apprehensive about paying for a service without at least some proof work is actually being done for me. I've had so many excuses about my credit report needing verification from a USA hacker because I'm in Canada. That is different for me. They needed to buy a software because the Canadian credit bureaus had updated their security protocol. And then there was money I had to send by Western Union only to find out the receiver names were flagged and then leaving me being questioned for sending funds. They told me my capital one credit card could not be worked on or prepaid card I bought was actually used for some other means and that someone gained access to the prepaid card. I had then lost money again. It goes on and on. However, my story changed to a happy ever after when I contacted New Horizon (*******@GMAIL.COM, *******516). These were my exact statement to them; "reassure me I'm not been had then it's a win-win for both of us! Prove the positive reviews about you that I've read are actually true. Trust is something gained and if you are on board with this, let's proceed ASAP". They replied with a beautiful proposal which was just what I wanted. We immediately got started with the project of fixing my credit and within 7 days, New Horizon performed a miracle on my report and brought an everlasting smiles on my face again by removing all negative items on my report including inquiries, credit card debts, an eviction, medical bills and student loans thereby making me qualify for everything, God bless them. Contact them with the above info and they will make you smile too irrespective of your location.

I've been trying for YEARS to get the GROSSLY INACURATE information changed on the home I grew-up in during the 1950s and 1960s, which is the same home my mother resided in until her death in August 1996.

The property is located at: 966 Castle Street, San Leandro (Alameda County) CA *******. And it was a track home built in 1952.

The home is a little over 1,600 square feet. Trulia has it listed as having TWO bedrooms and FIVE FULL BATHROOMS. Track homes back then in OUR neighborhood weren't built with having FIVE bathrooms, and it doesn't even make any logical sense that a "2 bedroom" house would even have 5 bathrooms to begin with, And in a 1,600-ish square foot house, it wouldn't be able to accommodate 5 full bathrooms!

This property has THREE bedrooms, ONE full bathroom, and another bathroom which has only a toilet with a small sink.

I've been trying for a countless number of years to get this information changed, and the only thing I've received is lip service, to wit: "We'll check into this and make the necessary changes if we find that you're providing us with accurate information." That's it!

Trulia is NOT reputable company and cannot be trusted to provide accurate information.

GO ELSEWHERE!
