I successfully listed and sold a property using Houzeo, and overall I was happy with the experience. I’d recommend it—but it really depends on the agent you’re assigned. If they’re busy with full-paying clients at the standard 2.5% commission versus your flat $400–$600 fee, they may not be as responsive. My agent usually got back to me within 6–7 hours, which was fine for me.
I chose the plan that included 10 free changes (like editing the listing, price adjustments, or open house updates). The trick I learned was to bundle requests—like asking the agent to set up two open houses and drop the price in one message. Normally that would count as three changes, but this way it only counted as one. That helped when I had to re-list my home after a buyer’s financing fell through and I was running low on changes.
In the end, I saved about $9K using Houzeo. My biggest advice: don’t skimp on professional photos—it makes a huge difference in how your listing performs.
