Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

The app used to be my go-to for real estate searches, but recent updates have made it unusable. It keeps resetting my location to my current one after viewing a listing, which is frustrating when searching in other areas. I'm switching to Zillow until this is fixed.
Mike61341
I love the app's features, but the constant notifications are overwhelming. Even after turning off email notifications, I still receive multiple emails daily. It's frustrating and makes me want to delete the app.
reversetheuldate
The app is great for finding homes, but it needs more filter options. It would be helpful to have filters for single-story homes or to exclude certain flood zones, as I have mobility issues and need to avoid stairs.
