Real Estate Pipeline

wasted time on an unverified lead for purchase

the person did not even live in the city that the RE Pipeline says they verified

I just got a call from Real Estate Pipeline. Sounded affordable and she talked the talk good.

I told her I wanted to check online first on the reviews before I committed cause I have wasted sooo much money on these lead companies. So I found this site and read your reviews. I just want to thank you for posting these reviews so as agents we can maybe save some money on these companies that promise us leads and its a total waste of money. So thank you.

You saved me this time.

Also, for the record.

DO NOT USE BOLD LEADS I signed a year contract 600 a month so 7,,200 dollars for NOT 1 good lead in a year. Im going back to referral business with my sphere of influence.

They basically lie to you. I spent over 1300.00 that included a set up fee!

None and I mean none of the leads had been qualified as promised! Many not even moving to our area. Some said they were basically harassed to give information and were at work when the calls from REPL came in and then sent to me while on the phone. They said they were pushy and I can attest to that!

You can't get any kind of refund so what you have worked for is down the drain!

DON'T DO IT NO MATTER WHAT THEY PROMISE! Mary H

Leads ARE horrible! They say the are verified and scrubbed, it is not true.

I spent over $1000 for nothing. Leads were either: a. Not interested or looking in a different area b.

Unrealistic expectations wanting a home for 150k when our median is 350k c. Looking to rent

Do not waste your time or money.

This company called me for years and I decided I would give them a shot, and oh my gosh I couldn't be more disappointed... You might notice that none of their platforms that they are on public facing allow for reviews - they are terrible to work with and the leads are pretty much always shocked that someone is calling them to talk about real estate, and not interested in buying or selling. This is a 0 out of 10...

I signed up with Real Estate Pipeline on 2/11/19 and agreed to pre pay for 12 leads @ $97 each totaling $1164, plus a $199 set up fee. They were also to provide 2 additional leads at no cost.

I was told there would be a qualified lead on average 1 time per month. I was provided a 60 day money back guarantee. I received my first lead on 3/15/19 and it wasn't a qualified lead. I was to be provided a replacement lead.

Near the end of March I called and complained that it was 6 weeks with no qualified lead and this was our season. I was leaving town for a week and didn't want to miss the 60 day deadline for the refund and started the process, only to learn that I wouldn't get the set up fee back or the one lead ($97) provided but not replaced. They offered to extend my time through 4/30/19 in order to get a replacement lead for me. As of today I processed the close of my account for a refund of $1067.

According to customer supports emails I can expect them to complete closing the account over the next day with a refund to me in 7-10 days. I am writing the BBB about the remaining $296 owed for set up and bogus lead. I feel this is also owed back to me. In 2.5 months, there was no viable lead provided.

I did first attempt to work this out with REP prior to contacting BBB.

I understand I signed a contract about how it all worked, but I feel REP didn't hold up to their end of the contract because they never provided an actual verified lead. I would have expected them to work hardest during the refundable period

They called me up and made all sorts of promises including replacement leads, refund if not satisfied, qualified leads, etc. After my first 5 leads I could tell this was just wasting my time requesting replacement leads for the unqualified leads, most of which either weren't even looking to buy or sell or were looking in areas way outside of my service area.

I called to see what they could do for me and they had no answer.

It is interesting that their reviews on their own site are all high praise but here and on BBB they are all bad. I suspect they edit their reviews so you don't get a good feel for their real service.

I learned the hard way.

Absolutely the worst real estate lead company I've ever worked with, run as fast as you can from them!

Please do not waste your money. I think this is the first review I have written - I took the time to write it because I did not want others to do what I did.

Basically, the leads are hard to get refunded for, even if they would not be considered an actual "lead". The Leads cost $97. ALL of the leads are terrible! Most leads you cannot even reach or have no desire to by/sell.

The others are looking for $50K-100K homes, which is not possible in California. I feel guilty even calling them leads. It was a complete waste of time and money. I do not see how they are in business still.

Best of luck to you and please try a different source for your leads. Trial and error :)

I've been wanting to write a review on this company. I purchased this many years ago and it was somewhere in the range of 800-****.00.

Totally not worth your money. Oh you get leads but you have to fight with them over the quality of leads. This company is a joke and they need to be put out of business. Run....don't buy leads from this company.

I also tried to get my money back or at least half but not even an option.

Poor customer service! They are very rude and will not even talk to you about a money back guarantee.

I have purchased 2 other lead generating systems from other companies and the only one I absolutely loved is out of business after the downturn.

They called while I was busy with the line," just try it you can always cancel" so I thought why not but when I asked to cancel after 1 week they gave me the run around and then reinstated my account with out permission and now want to charge me HALF after only one half {{Redacted}} lead! According to them they can reinstate your account even if you cancel just by sending you an email and saying so. The agent I spoke to said that their emails must have gone to my spam account and that they sent me 3 leads, I check my spam regularly and I can guarantee that I didn't get them!!

If you're looking to purchase leads to get your Real Estate Business up and running, DO NOT purchase leads from Real Estate Pipeline. They're a bunch of professional ripoff artists, promising you that their clients have been pre-screened and asked very important qualifying questions.

BS. They forget to ask "So how is your credit??" , Are you currently employed??, Do you have a sufficient amount of money to put down?? These are all very important questions. Without good credit, you can't even rent a home.

You need a job to pay for rent or a mortgage and you need to put down at least 3.5% down to buy a home not including closing costs. If you receive a phone call from these people, hang up immediately. If you get an email from them, delete it right away.

What a joke of a company!!! stay away, you'll be glad you did!!
