HouseValues - Home Value - Home Price - CMA Ripoff Kirkland Washington

Real estate agents in droves are complaining about the deceit practiced by HouseValues, Inc. I have had the worst experience dealing with HouseValues. PHASE ONE - They verbally promised the world to me with great leads and if I didn't like the leads I could cancel. They promised me an easy cancel. PHASE TWO - I had no clue that by entering to get their training to try some leads that what I was doing IN HOUSEVALUES 'PENALTIES R US' BUSINESS FASHION was providing them with what they view as an Electronic Signature.

PHASE THREE - Shoddy leads, shoddy service - they even deceive the poor end user that is expecting to get an instant CMA - NOT A CALL FROM A REALTOR.

After months of paying over $300 a month (there is a setup fee on top of that), I decided to cancel them. This is where they begin PHASE FOUR. They began threatening to collect penalties for the whole rest of the year.

PHASE FIVE - They blatantly boast that they have an Iron Clad Contract with an E Signature that I SIGNED????????

PHASE SIX - Guido at some hole in the wall collection company calls BLATANTLY BOASTING that HouseValues never promised quality leads - only quantity of leads and BLATANTLY BOASTING that they have an Iron Clad Contract and you are a Debtor.

PHASE SEVEN - Anytime I called HouseValues they seem to pull out of some PENALTIES-R-US handbook with some near memorized statement that "We are sorry Mr. Realty that you did not have success with us and chose to cancel and that you owe us 50% penalties for the rest of the 12 months". For what? For crappy leads??? What do you get for the penalty??? Nothing. They should at least send you an 'I've been scammed by HouseValues bumper sticker'.

Watch out for this company. HouseValues is extremely proud of what they call their 'IRON CLAD CONTRACT WITH VALID E-SIGNATURE. Google 'Scam HouseValues' and you will read horror story after horror story from deceived real estate agents that are being fleeced.
