Attention Realtors: After signing up for Realtor.com advertising I only received half of the leads that I was verbally promised when I initiated the service. I later noticed hidden on the invoice that there was no guarantee of the number of leads. Part way through my subscription I was verbally promised that I would receive the full allotment. I'm nearing my expiry date and I'm still half down from the number of leads I was promised. We all know how important total disclosure is in our industry so I can't believe that an arm of that industry can be so deceptive. Buyer beware should not pertain when engaging Realtor.com.

If this review saves even one other Realtor from getting ripped off by this company it is worth it. Do not throw away money on Realtor.com lead programs, they are lying, stealing and it is a complete scam. I was sold their flex lead program (they regularly change the names of these programs but it's all the same scam). Over the course of a year you should receive about 40 leads, there is a 3 day window to cancel, but there's no way of knowing the leads are fake within that short period. When they sell you the program they tell you they are verified, and being sent exclusively to you. Neither is true. They are most often fake emails, names and numbers so definitely not at all verified and the same leads "exclusive to you" are being sold to other Realtors at the same time. Avoid at all costs! They scammed me for $2,721.00 there are so many lead sources out there, Realtor.com so far has been the absolute worst. Hope this helps someone else.

Tory **, one of the realtors from the Yorkville, IL Kettley takes advantage of the buyers she sells a home to. Tory is a realtor and a legal assistant so when you go after her for the deceit in the sale of a home she threatens to sue you. Tory sold a home and camouflaged serious issues that the home inspector did not even see. Also, when the buyers tried to negotiate the cost for the obvious issues, Tory would not budge. Tory knew exactly how to take advantage of the buyer and put them in a horrible financial crisis. I would not recommend Tory ** at all.

Michael **, never do business or recommend this realtor!!! I will never do business or recommend this realtor in this lifetime or the next. He is unprofessional, moody, disrespectful. He was extremely difficult to work with, selfish and never put the needs of the client first. He made me lose money yelled at me and disrespected my loan officer and the team. He tried to degrade me with his arrogance. I don’t know how he is still in this line of business and never been reported or how he has managed to maintain his license. Please if you ever come across this individual or anyone is oblivious to his poor job ethic and refers him to you, Run away while you can. Don’t believe his lies or allow him to entangle you with his nonsense. Working with this person was the worst experience of my life and I’m thankful that is all over. My first time buying a home was very traumatic thanks to him. I hope it will never happen to you.

I received a text message from a phone number in the 213 area code that did not have caller ID from someone claiming to be from Realtor.Com around the end of March 2022 saying they wanted to help match me up with lenders "For you inquiry about a mortgage." since I never made any such inquiry, I ignored the text message assuming it was a typical spam/phishing text message which you are told to never respond to even to reply stop. But within an hour, I started being bombarded by unwanted calls from mortgage brokers on a phone number that was already registered on the federal do not call list.

Stay away Francesca ** at realtor.com. She's a shyster and thief. We had a verbal agreement, which I have in text form, to return 3/4 of our $13,000 security deposit.($9,750). She only returned $9,100. When confronted her answer was "you signed it". Luckily, this was only a vacation rental. Based on this she shouldn't be trusted on a major home purchase. She has been reported to realtor.com corporate headquarters.

HOA fees are being falsely reported as realtor.com is pulling the data from MLS and posting the fees as a monthly fee instead of an annual fee. Huge deterrent for potential buyers on this heavily trafficked website. We reported the issue and the problem continues during this crucial selling time.

I have requested three separate times for Realtor.com to remove my property details from their website. They have not. The home that I own is not for sale. I do not want my property details on this website. This company is fraudulently advertising homes which are not for sale and they are using it as click bait. This company needs to be investigated for fraud.

AnTonia DeAnna ** 12:51 PM (2 hours ago) to Rich. On the disclosures it did not say if it has cast iron pipes. This needs to be told upfront because insurance companies will not insure a home with cast iron pipes. A lot of times this is withheld information from the realtor/homeowner because of the insurance stipulation on cast iron pipes. Then the house can't be sold unless it's a cash buyer. It should be listed as a cash buyer only. You can't get a loan for a house with cast iron pipes. So that's why you need to know upfront. Most disclosures don't disclose information about cast iron pipes. Don't buy a house with cast iron pipes because insurance companies will drop your insurance. If you have a loan on the house then the loan will foreclose if you can't get insurance. Realtors/insurance and loan companies do not tell the buyer upfront. It is withheld information. This is happening in Florida!!!!

I simple asked a question about a property in Fairfield PA and a Realtor named Sherry ** started texting me and sending me emails. I asked her to please answer the question, which she would not. Then she got hostile and started sending me harassing emails for a day. She told she couldn't answer my question, then said she wouldn't answer it then told me she was in a terrible situation at a hospital with her sick husband. Why are you answering emails then? She was upset and wasted my time because I didn't want to choose her as a agent. Realtor.com you better pick more professional realtors to represent you.
