“Now THIS is the way to run a real estate site!”

Steve G.
9/27/14

Now THIS is the way to run a real estate site! Exceptionally easy to populate the site template and update site content, both text and photos for properties For Sale By Owner (FSBO). It is even a snap to change the order of photos by dragging a new or replacement photo to the list of photos with their thumbnails. I direct traffic to this site by the flyers I developed for the site for my horse property, which I am personally distributing to the horse-related businesses and real estate agencies in my area. I could not be more pleased with this site and update it frequently in response to suggestions by realtors who have seen my property. I sold my property without the aid of a broker by (1) buying a flat rate MLS listing; (2) posting a yard sign stocked with high quality flyers; (3) distributing flyers to any business with a bulletin board as well as targeted (equestrian and pet related) businesses because we had a large fenced horse property with a dog run and play area; (4) posting an aerial tour shot by drone web-cam on YouTube ("Marcella Aerial Tour"); (5) posting a walk-through video shot with my iPhone on YouTube ("Marcella Blvd 2"); and by shamelessly promoting the property to everyone I met. I was NEVER without my supply of flyers. Every one of the above contributed to my sale at the price I wanted for a LOG house in South Florida!

“Unprofessional Sales Agent”

Kleon C.

They will try to shove all of their products down your throat. If you don't want one you're automatically not an important customer. My restaurant has been around for several years now and I was just looking for some integrations. Look elsewhere for competence, professionalism and customer service because they lack it very much so.

Tip for consumers:
Forced selling. Stay away. They’ll try to sell you everything and if you say no, your customer priority becomes nonexistent.

Please read online reviews before signing with this service as a seller! I wish I would have. After paying for their $495 package, I received an email stating that they couldn't provide MLS service in my area and would be refunding my money. That is something they could easily determine before taking my money. Needless to say after more than 2 weeks there is no sign of a refund. I've submitted a dispute through my bank but that can take up to 45 days. Buyers please beware!

$395 for nothing. Transfer to "customer care" leads to a recording then disconnect. SCAM - Floor manager refuses to return call. Says they're in Atlanta... if so I'll be knocking on their door.

The most unprofessional company I have ever dealt with. They kept cancelling my MLS listing after I paid them $395. They would that an email was sent asking for the status of the property, but nothing was ever received. Instead of picking up the phone, they would deactivate the MLS listing. They are poorly run and managed, and they are just stealing from people and not providing the service they advertise.

Had home on owners.com for 5 months without a single call.
Rest of homes in my area comparably priced sold.
No support and very hard to contact.

They are slow and dishonest. The overall response times were very slow to making changes on my listing information. Then when I asked for a receipt/invoice their quote was "We have checked our records, however we no longer hold receipts after 30 days when our refund policy expires." Not only is it illegal for an internet company to fail to keep business transactions, it is dishonest.

This is how scum scams money! Promise of MLS listing, non existent. Promises of zillow, trulia, Realtor.com listing, doesn't happen. Promise of refund, can't get your money back. Go to site, list your property with all your info, doesn't get to any other site. Then they Assign a Real Estate agent, listing that you input on the Owners.Com site doesn't Transfer over to the "clickitrealty.com site. You re-enter all the info with only 15 pictures ( owners.com promises unlimited pics) but can pay more if you like to go over the 15 pic limit. The clickit people talk junk about Owners.com and ask for a major credit card in case your property sells and you wait more than 24 hours to notify them. If you pay for the forms on Owners.com, you won't get them unless you pay more on another site. The lock box doesn't show up, my suggestion don't pay for that either. The lack of honesty and integrity is amazing. I want my money back. To quote John Paul Jones "we have just begun to fight" or FDR "we have only just begun to fight". Read reviews on both of these businesses. I am going to seek out a class action suit, this is nonsense. Please join me.

Tip for consumers:
Run as fast as possible!

I do not think that they are dishonest, just badly disorganized.
That being said, they did try to charge me 25% for cancellation fees even though they have a cancellation window. They gave no notice of the cancellation fee and never replied to any of the emails I sent to them.
I would never, ever use them again.

The website says owners and everything is real estate, why the name?. The name is false, That's cheating the public of the service they provide. The service is lousy, try looking for a house in 4 places of preference and everything went out MLS, which is by real estate.

I listed my home with owners.com. A week later, multiple phone calls and emails, my home is still not in MLS or realtor.com. They "escalated" my problem. No response ever. Don't waste your time or money! I will try to cancel and get a full refund. Unfortunately I can't recoup the value of my wasted time.

I paid for the listing, filled out the paperwork, and returned it as requested. My home was listed improperly on several sites. Owner.com's response was for me to contact the sites directly. The sites were pulling the info off of the data entered by Owners.com.

The responsiveness was non-existent most of the time. When they did respond, it rarely addressed the actual question(s) I asked.

They removed my phone number from the listing and listed a realtor's number instead. That person, Dana Rowell, was 'my' realtor who listed the property (or something like that). Again, very poor responsiveness and indirect answers.

In the end, my home sold while listing only through Owners.com. Since then, I've used www.ForSaleByOwner.com. The later site was MUCH better than Owners.com.

Good grief and good riddance...

Tip for consumers:
Use another option.

Initially things went well. It's a bit cumbersome because you have to fill out a profile for their site, and then you have to duplicate the effort for the local broker. Fair enough. Then a week ago, I saw my listing on yahoo and zillow had the pictures removed, called customer service, spoke to Teresa. She promised to fix the problem "in 24 hrs" and "personally deal with the issue if it is not corrected in 24 hrs". A week later, nothing. I call back and Teresa tells me the same jargon, and offers me $25 (of the 400 I paid) to take it off yahoo completely. I asked for her manager, and she told me that she was the manager. I asked for who her superior was, and she refused. They don't seem to have many people who can get anything done that you don't do yourself or isn't automated. Use them at your own risk.

Don't use them.

We paid our money, but could not find our MLS listing. When we contacted them, their email stated:...
I have never known any MLS to allow members of the public to search the MLS agents belong to. I am thinking perhaps we are looking at two different sites...
We never were able to see our listing on an MLS site by searching, but they sent us an MLS number and link that enabled us to see pictures of our home.

We did not receive even one call as a result of purchasing their service, but received over 50 calls from our FSBO listing.

They are fraud. Don't use them.

Guys these are all scams, look at all law suites pertaining to Ocwen, Altisource, RealServicing, Wells Fargo, Deustche "national" trust, now they are hiding under Hubzu, owners.com, and all realty sites. They have dear friends of ours, home listed for a "CASH AUCTION", note the " Do Not Disturb Tenants" this family has been in a fight of they're life for over a decade, on a predatory "federally deemed" loan that they didn't default on, they paid unbelievable amounts of money, reg. Monthly, they thought mortgage payments and after 2 years trying to get it worked out with the "servicing company", that company bankrupted along with the supposed bank, again both were in bankruptcy at the time this family was in closing, buying the house from the parents to their children and retired south. Too, note this whole time as each entity has been Federally and Nationwide, cease and desisted, fined, or they settled out of court ( please be encouraged to search the cases, there are thousands of settlements to homeowners after the fact, all Nationwide and several Nationally by states and the Feds with the whom by the way, after admitting their fraudulent activities, ( Great Example: u tube, 60 mins on robosigning) they just keep switching attorney's, who buy the forged fake paper pennies on the dollar and begin illegal foreclosures, each time they are caught they roll out to a new name, now they are calling themselves "OWNERS.COM ", still Altisource ( they have main office now in Luxenbourg, Luxenbourg City, Germany) they will tell you yes, Atlanta, GA ( where too Ocwen started there illegal activities, each time they are caught they just forge fix the issue but yet continue with illegal documents, unforutnately certain states like Delaware, Georgia have lax business laws and in here lies SOME of the problems, the D/B/A is going to make harder for the legit beginner, starting a business) each entity, all parented by the main company, has changed hands (meaning they just switch the name and address) so many times, they have only been temporarily shut down after making a settlement to the national treasury, or just paying a fine. At one point hope seemed reachable as a NATIONAL Settlement ( no monies to homeowners in MD, other then a letter to SOME already evicted homeowners with "whoops, it was a computer glitch, we should have modified you, sorry. Mind you their lives are still in ruins, credit is held hostage unless you pay for bankruptcy). Again this family has received nothing to date, and all they have done is fill mounds of paperwork, paid and spent tons of money to find out the company couldn't have ( nor ever had the intention to) modified, or restructured their loan as per FEDERAL guidelines because of a national cease n desist with 49 states) Why when the Nation, by 49 states, shut down in the form of a cease n desist order, to illegally forge documents, lie to the courts and illegally foreclose on homes that have been in this crisis since 2007, even allow this parent company, remember out of originally Uraguay, South America, officed in Atlanta, Ga and FLA, to continue? Oh by the way they now are also called PHH, I saw on the news and when I asked this family they continue like loyal soldiers " No Comment", "we just want to get this fixed and keep our land and home"... again just follow the money. Non of these companies and so called banks have any standing in their notes, deed of trusts, what so ever, have in any form of legal possession, or court ordered possession and why they are trying to dump the house on a third innocent party!?!?! Because they are GUILTY of FRAUD at MANY levels. Shame on you CFPB! ( our friends actually do have a court date Nov 11th, set by 3 judges on the (illegal deed, the illegal so called "sub Trustee's" filed in their name? In court) possession that 4 attorney's are NOT the legal "Sub Trustees", and a they DO have a second court date ( I went looked myself) that was set back in August for Nov 20th), note everything for the past DECADE can be seen on the court docket in Anne Arundle Co., MD. This family and their land has been established since the 1800's in the "First Families of Annapolis", their kin from the 1800's are buried right in the center of West Street/Riva Rd. The family has asked all us ( whom they have done nothing but GOOD for our community, church, hospitals, neighbors) for our prayers, and to NOT GET INVOLVED, they want to continue to do the right thing & believe JUSTICE and our great JUDGES will prevail on the right side of this. The mental anguish I/we our family and the community can't imagine, yet, we've seen what this family, their children and now grandchildren has and have continued to be and been put through for over a decade! And to now watch them come to a neighbor family's funeral ( the elders were all farmers, to engineers, road work, building bottom line a good, hard working family that does nothing but give, can't we as a community, shouldn't we pulled together and at least all show up at these hearings? They have been more then patient, the monies they have spent ( which should be rembuirsed towards their mortgage), a hard working local blue collar family, who chooses to continue to work hard, dirty hands but CLEAN money, and they believe in our courts system here in AA Co, they themselves won't speak to reporters or the news, believe me you I know fact they have been asked. This state has done nothing, but to take the word and paperwork of liars and to do but throw people illegally out of their homes? This past Sunday, they came to pay respects to family and friends, whom they constantly look after, to hear someone say "why is your house on Hubzu for a public "CASH ONLY" auction? I thought you guys have court dates up and coming?", They had NO idea, once again the family, slapped in the face, only asked that today be about our friend we lost, too, let's remember our family of neighbors who have grown up together generation after generation, the family who just lost 2 brothers this year and another who is fighting hard still for his life, it's not about us, it's about remembering the good, remember to count blessings, we all have them if you stop and look, that they were brought into our lives by and with them, we do thank you all for the steadfast loyality and continued prayers & support." Then only asked this past Sunday, for continued prayers and that justice finds it way to our hard working Judges & court clerks, attorney's that are doing right, too continueing too take the time, look at the ALL facts ( I have heard from reliable sources that the wife has over 10 years of paperwork, in black and white proof to show the courts, to all of us that have been harmed, the people that have already gave up because the court costs, attorney fee's will and have bankrupted the Nation, had no choice but to walked away or have been thrown illegally out of their homes. And this past Sunday SHE still won't blame the courts and the past attorney's that did wrong, she explained "Know the devil, the devil is in the details" in which she has to show each and every payment (that only a minimum payment sometimes was credited, which then was reflected with outlandish fee's, i. E. just one example in a "late payment", they were prompt every month making their payments, has forced placed insurance and the list goes on and on, forged documents, (they have their originals closing docs), she continued to explain it is a very LONG process, we've been and will continue each step asked of us, and "God willing and the creek don't rise (bringing a chuckle to the congregation) we will FINALLY have a day in front of 3 amazing senior judges, on Nov 12th, concerning the illegal possession at hand now", she didn't understand how someone could be so evil, neither could we, to add now another innocent third party, and have had a date of Nov 20th set back a few months ago. Note to everyone she stated: "we as a family are asking of you, go high, with your words and pray for these enemies, pray for these companies and people working to only steal from the hard working people that have for generations, for our family, since the 1800's..." Speaking down upon them,... down is to only be at their LOW level of hatred, non of these companies originated from or out of the USA, one is from Uraguay, South America, others are hiding in the Phillaphines, to the out sourcing of all our personal information to India that led to our identity theft, straight out of our bank account in 2008 and again I ask go High, remember there's too much of that hate already and we refuse to be a part of that! " How this family has maintained their love for our community, Anne Arundel Co., and our state of MD when so much harm has been brought to them and note to all of us there's is a fine example to follow. This family. So note to people in the USA the MD home up for a "CASH" auction, reading it screams scam, it's these people realizing they won't win and trying to get what cash they can and run with it to the Virgin, Camen Islands. What she would say is " do your research and follow the money, I should, I've been told, to write a book, you just can't make this $#*! up"
