HomeLight attempts to dazzle comes up very short. This "benefit" made available through my employer who gave a shiny presentation on the surface but I was left less than satisfied.
They claim to kick back as much as $2500 cash after closing on your home purchase. As it turns out, you have to buy a house for 2.5 million to get that. If you buy for $100,000 you get a measly $100. Yes, $100 is nothing to really complain about but the way HomeLight goes about it is. There is not one single place on their website that up front that tells what this number is.
This wasn't the only disappointment from them. They also brag they put you in touch with top agents in the area you are shopping. The agent I dealt with was top notch but I think the connection was pure luck. Every other time I wanted an agent in a different area, they said I would get a call, never did, ever. I called over and over again to get some help but in the end, I should have just stopped thinking about the mystery money and worked on my own.
HomeLight got a cut of this sale and tossed me pennies. You are better off going on your own or trying to find someone more useful. I regret using them.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
