In Idaho we are a non-disclosure state, so the accuracy of the "big 3" is laughable. When I first speak to someone searching for a home on another platform I tell them four things.
1. Homesnap ties directly into the MLS-so accuracy matter
Homesnap is my go-to mobile app for any customers or clients looking for homes. I enjoy the fact that once I send someone my personal link and they sign up, all homes are then branded to me. I like how I can view the favorites of other users, or share a home that I think they may be interested in. Homesnap is not a great tool if a user wants to be notified as soon as a home comes on the market. In hot markets, this could be the difference between getting an appointment and making and offer.
I have received some rental leads from REALTOR.COM. They don't generate an Agent a lot of Money but eventually that referral can convert into a Buyer! I'll accept rental leads, due to that potential benefit. However, the leads were pretty far away from my preferred target areas.
Anytime I have a question for Homesnap, I am able to contact customer support and, 99.9% of the time. get the answers I need right away. I have only had one issue that took more than a day, but the communication was great the entire time.
I have used Zillow and their leads are bonafide but costly - but they pay off. You actually speak to a live client on the phone. If I can get the person on the phone I can convert them. It is impossible to convert someone if their email address and phone number are fake and you cant communicate with them.... especially if you received the leads 2 weeks after that have initially made contact with Homesnap - due to their leads being processed by an AI bot and not having any real human interaction or urgency in getting the lead to you the Realtor.
