Beverly Colosky Smithville, TX

Customer service was great setting up a 3 month trial. I haven't seen results of the service yet. I actually have an account with Realtor.com as well. They are being compared to see which one I'll be keeping. Other agents in my office are doing the same thing to see if we are all getting the same leads or if they are different. Also getting leads from our broker for realtor and homes so we should know soon if this is a win for all.

So far the best part of Homes .com is Jennifer R and commitment to keep me with Homes.com. She it very good and understands the issues and franklyI have yet to have any good leads and most of the calls I have had were homes in escrow at the time the leads came to me. I would hopefully soon I could say the my results were Amazing with homes .com

I've been more than satisfied with the response from Homes.com staff in getting setup and answering any questions I have throughout the process. The level of referrals have mostly been really good. I would recommend Homes.com to anyone looking to increase their incoming referrals.

Katrina was very helpful and convincing! She was very knowledgable and able to answer all of my questions. I'm very optimistic that this lead program is going to work for us. Fingers crossed. It's too soon for me to rate the company today as I just signed up.

My experience is of being an agent that receives leads from Homes.com. I have been very pleased with the number and quality of the leads. Their system appears to be easy to use and will retain all of the information I need.
