Well, before we bought our home, we noted that the window in the front door needed replacement. Because of inaccurate wording the the documents that specified this, the seller did not fix the window. This was addressed at closing, and the sellers agent said they would take care of it. However, when the estimate came in at much higher than expected, the seller's office offered to split the cost with redfin, and redfin refused, even though the inaccurate wording was their fault. This leaves no other option but us to pay the bill, and that is extremely frustrating to us, because we really do not feel it is our bill to pay because we just spent a ton of money on the home, with the expectation that the door would be fixed before the home became ours. What seemed minor has turned into a very frustrating situation and left us with a very bad aftertaste from the whole process. |
I think Redfin is most attractive with respect to the ease of use, electronic basis of its services, and potential monetary reward to the buyer. However, the site lacks several key features such as an autoupdate of favorite properties, ability to save searches, lack of coorespondance between zip codes and actual geographic boundaries, and the ability to sign into the site without having to click through multiple screens. Also, we received little guidance on the amount our offer other than it was "a bit low" and we should not offer more than we were comfortable. We were also not directed to or given any data on comps other than what was indicated on the website, and I have found the matches to be very hit and miss. In all, if not for the 2/3 refund there isn't much of a huge advantage to Redfin versus a traditional buyers' agent in my opinion.
