Redfin Homes for Sale & Rent for Positive User Reviews
✓ Good on phoneI like the interface on the phone but on IPad, I can’t believe the videos of the places don’t show up and the link to street view is not there. It is close but need to iron out some of the issues..Version: 411.0.0.6897
✓ Fantastic AppThis is a fantastic app. Many features that even realtors don’t provide you. Perfect for anyone looking for more than just the listing sheet..Version: 358.0.0.1970
✓ Dark mode missingNice service but would like to have the UI to change to dark mode..Version: 365.0.0.2529
✓ Need to expand area and minor quirks but LOVE this appBy far the most superior real estate app available. My biggest complaint is they’re not everywhere. When I’m searching an area that says “Redfin is not available in this area,” I use Trulia, which I completely dislike. There are quirks in the data such as the map that is supposed to show the layout of the property. Many times the property lines are inaccurate. I always verify with state parcel pages. School information is also often times missing on the phone version but available on the computer site. Otherwise, this app is so user friendly and visually appealing. Please, please expand your area!.Version: 204.0.0.2002
✓ RedfinI enjoy using this site,it's user friendly and the range of properties us good..Version: 4.6
✓ AwesomeAwesome.Version: 322.0.0.2004
✓ Good but nags for reviewWorks well but wish it would stop bugging me to review it.Version: 98.0.0.1043
✓ You Broke a Good Thing :(I used to love this app - the MOST user friendly app out there. Easy to show favorites, flag open houses, and really appreciate the way you show total costs up front, including any HOA fees, when calculating a monthly cost. However suddenly lower priced homes are no longer selectable for the open houses. Message says only that it's below Redfin's minimum price limit (that message used to be there, but you could ALSO click on the open house to add it to your list - that is no longer working). Also, when zooming in/out the map has changed so that it groups listings into "10" or "20" too easily instead of showing the individual listings. Not helpful at that level of zoom, should only happen when zoomed way out. Then zoom in and you're too close, seeing all the sold listings. Takes a lot more manipulation to get to the right view, esp where there a lot of homes on the market. If I'd done this a few months ago, it would've have been a 5-star rating, but can no longer do that given the new glitchy feel to the experience using the app. :(.Version: 274.1.0.2003
✓ NaBest real estate app.Version: 501.0.0.16712
✓ Last 2 houses in past 12 years via the appMy last two houses in the past 12 years have been scouted and researched on this app. I never used an actual Redfin agent, however, just the app. I wish RF could get at least a tiny cut of the purchases and sales of the homes because I used it extensively through out the process. On the sale - watching the “viewed count” and popularity indicator. On the buying side I typically know what happened before my realtor and before the attorney emails back with deed entry news. Only once in a while I’ll open up Zillow when some confusion arrises from a condo unit mislabeling. My last house (condo) had 3 different entries on RF, for example. So I’d go to Zillow app to do a sanity check. No guarantees which app would have more accurate info, though..Version: 508.0.0.17175
✓ Hate the changesThis app used to be my favorite go to app before all the changes. I would even have paid a small annual or monthly fee, but now with the prices instead of the little houses, it is hard on the eyes and even harder to map out. My other complaint is that now you can only fiter for the last 3 months sold instead of the last month and last 7 days. I used this app everyday but now it is not effective or efficient. Anyone who uses it to it business like I do to reach out to new homeowners, this app used to be a must have and like I stated, if I could get it to be like if was before, I sold gladly pay a small monthly fee. Anyone who targets brand new homeowners would. Keep this app like this of you want but make one just for businesses owners looking for newly sold homes..Version: 454.0.0.11872
✓ Redfin has it all!Redfin provides the best and most timely notification emails re: new listings & status changes. In addition, Redfin provides all the details one needs, including the extras such as floor plans, virtual tours, & 3D walk throughs (when provided by the listing agents). Other sites, often do not provide these bonus features that can really showcase a property. I find these extras so helpful in really learning more about a property. You would think that the listing agents who go to the extra steps (and costs) to include floor plans & 3D walk throughs, would insist other realtor sites include these great features, as well. Sellers should also make their voices heard when details about their homes are left out. Redfin is the best advertisement for both listing agents & sellers!.Version: 456.1.0.12158
✓ Perfect AppThe best app.Version: 369.0.0.2797
✓ Great app save for an infuriating search filter omission.I’ve been a long-time user of the redfin app. I think it’s a tremendous tool. But the fact that they do not allow you to add real estate taxes as a filter is beyond comprehension. I can’t tell you how much time I waste looking at listings only to find out the taxes are incredibly high (especially here in Illinois) and I just have to keep looking because the taxes put the listing outside outside my budget. I submitted a improvement request a couple years ago but obviously nothing ever happened. I just don’t understand why you can filter by so many different categories, but one of the most important items like taxes (which is a defined MLS numeric field so I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to add it) remains unavailable after all these years. It’s the same issue on their website. Come on Redfin. One of your web development guys could probably figure out how to add this filter in just a week or so. It’s been ten years. Make it happen!.Version: 328.0.0.2002
✓ Love the notifications based on your filtersThis app really helped me find our dream home. It helped us understand the local market. I love how you can pull a report on what houses were listed for vs what they actually sold for with days on the market. Zillow does not offer this capability. It helped us understand how to negotiate our offer to purchase a home by including enough time to sell our current home. I also love the updates on how our home is appreciating. They only throng they could do better is the estimates on current value. I feel like this is too conservative because I have seen the Redfin value of 2.0m and then the home is listed for 2.6m and sells within a week all cash offer. I have seen a few of these examples..Version: 212.0.0.2002
✓ Easy updatesSuch a great app to get updates quickly. Love it!.Version: 501.0.0.16712
✓ All you needMy favorite real estate app ever..Version: 208.1.0.2004
✓ The best real estate app! Love the features!I love the features, such as being able to move the interactive map around to quickly search different areas, and the automatic commute time calculator- just input your work address one time under “add a commute” and it saves it forever, so every time you look at a home, it will automatically calculate the commute time for you (you can add up to 6 different addresses to calculate for you, as well!) It also has the “ flood factor” rating for each home,( on the location map) and school ratings! I also like to read the “tour insights “ that Redfin agents can leave about the home! The “ market insights” about an area are helpful as well! You can easily switch from a map- based to list based search and go back and forth, and switch from “ for sale” and “coming soon” to “ under contract” and “solds” (to check out prices in the area!) All the filters are great too- you can filter fir so many features, such as garages, pools, basements, hoa ( or no hoa!), view, waterfront, etc., primary bedroom on first floor, etc. And I also like being able to search the “sales history” for the home as well!! The even have a handy monthly “payment calculator” right u set each home that you can play around with editing how much you are putting down, etc! They keep improving the app, too! It’s great!.Version: 435.0.0.9784
✓ Real Estate Expenses Are out of control!!!When I discovered the Redfin app, I was surprised and excited. Now, I am just surprised!!! I’m wanting peace of mind as a location; but, Our society is skewed by so many factors and greed seems to be the main culprit. I shall continue to use Redfin to look for property for me, but I am not holding out hope for my future purchase. Rural communities and surrounding areas, such as Brookings, Oregon are just no longer reasonable to consider as a place to live. Prices are high, and controlling property owners (including corporations) are greedy. Many of the listings have errors and inaccuracies that cause extreme frustrations. Yet, I have faith that there is one place for me that’s just great. I’ll keep looking and enjoy the little things….Version: 505.0.0.16897
✓ Widget does not workWidget does not work, 5 stars otherwise.Version: 391.1.0.5071
✓ Best Real-Time Push NotificationsOf the Redfin, Trulia, Zillow and Realtor apps, Redfin hands-down gives me the best real-time push notifications. None of the other apps can come close to touching it. Today, I received scores of “new to market,” “now pending,” “sold” and “back on market” notifications on homes for my areas of interest - all well before similar notifications from the other apps mentioned... and often not at all from them. Especially helpful are the “sold” notifications, which allow me to quickly see how the sale price of a home relates to its most recent listing price - an incredibly useful feature! Also love the “now pending” and “back on market” notifications. Keep up the fabulous work!!.Version: 262.0.0.2029
✓ It’s good for OntarioNot all provinces show the previous listing prices so just know that before you download. I like that I can see the history of how long a home has been on the market, price adjustments, etc. The one thing I don’t like is the app icon will show that I have notifications, but when I enter the app I don’t see any notifications or why I received the notifications..Version: 369.0.0.2797
✓ Want to be able to filter out homesOther than that great.Version: 250.0.0.2002
✓ Redfin is Great as usual!Love how you guys have adapted to Canada. I’ve lived in the US and loved your site there as well. Love how I can see what other homes in the neighborhood sold for as well. One little thing that is common here in Canada, that’s missing, are the dimensions of the lot “frontage 60 x 120 depth” Keep up the great work.....Version: 338.0.0.445
✓ AmazingI wish this concept comes to uk , just bought few stocks and i think its a great idea for homebuyers.Version: 396.0.0.5453
✓ Why remove driving times?!?(edit... it’s back!)Edit:(they listened!! Thanks for putting the driving times back in the app. Can’t overstate how great that feature is. Back to 5 stars) Why in the world would you remove the driving times from the app in this latest release?!?? That was arguably one of the best features. It still shows online so maybe it was unintentional or is simply a bug. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!! (Thanks for the dev response but clicking driving directions to launch google maps is pointless. I want to see the driving times to multiple places, none of which are where I live or am situated currently. Still hoping that feature is put back in the next release. ).Version: 310.0.0.2003
✓ Redfin AppGreat app and very detailed information and follow up when necessary. Lv the layout of the home and details necessary to make an informed decision. Very impressed. Tku..Version: 176.0.0.2008
✓ Redfin appGreat app. Lots of great information to make informed decisions. I would suggest a new feature of a pin being placed on the map of the house that is being inquired about at the given time, or maybe, all the houses pinned on the map that were looked at during that session..Version: 180.0.0.2002
✓ Good appEasy to use and never let me down.Version: 364.0.0.2447
✓ Best App To House HuntI love the app! Better than all the other ones out there when searching and comparing all of your options. We actually bought and sold through Redfin as well! I use the app frequently to see how our home is increasing in value and comparing to the other homes on the market in our neighborhood. I use it almost every day, even helping friends search for homes. My only gripe, and it’s super small, is that the email updates and links that Redfin sends out is very inconsistent with opening the app vs opening a web browser when clicking on a link. It’s like it can’t recognize that the app is downloaded on my phone. Must be a bug. Other than that, I highly recommend Redfin!.Version: 298.0.0.2002
✓ Good appIt so good.Version: 318.1.0.2003
✓ Needs helpPlease add lot size to the thumbnail view. Also please add a sort for lot size in descending order. Some people don’t care about anything but the lot possibility. It’s very cumbersome to search in that case. Also- open house list should be super easy and not require a Redfin agent to be contacted just to glance at a property. Every weekend there should be a suggested Redfin adventure map, plotting a driving map to potential properties to explore. With the incentive for using the Redfin agent on each property. Push notifications could also notify you if there is an open house nearby that fits your search criteria. We have explored areas in the car and not found it easy to get from one open house to the other, driving. App needs to take the open house hours in to account and suggest a route to see all within the “draw” area and search criteria..Version: 286.2.0.2004
✓ Overall a helpful toolRedfin is a good app. Simple, transparent, and with good filters to narrow down real estate search. It falls short of a 5-star app because of two strange behaviors: 1. It doesn’t let you view all the homes for sale in a city based on Great Schools rankings. You have to zoom into a very small area for school-based filtering to apply. Until then, the filter simply doesn’t work. The way I like to do property searches is to look at an entire city (or custom area), filter on Great Schools ranking 8+, and then play around with the resulting options. The app doesn’t let you operate that way. 2. In select cities such as New York City, it requires that you re-enter your password to view the complete listing. Even after re-entering, the app takes you back to the restricted version of the listing as if you still haven’t entered the password. You need to kill the app and re-open it immediately to see the unrestricted listing. It’s a pretty annoying bug that affects me almost every session..Version: 266.1.0.2003
✓ Lightning FastI like how quickly Redfin updates. We’ve known the status several times before our Realtor because of this. I also like how you can opt out of seeing a house pop up on searches over and over. I only wish there were a few more options and that they were all immediately available by the heart icon without needing to open the listing to “X” out. Something along the lines of the two that Redfin already offers “love it”, “hate it” and then add an “eh, this may need a second look” icon would be great. Also since the recent update I am not able to view the shared favorites which is frustrating. Though I can still see the comments left on my favorites. Even still this is my preferred app as we navigate through house hunting. Easy to use and updates super fast! Thanks!.Version: 362.0.0.2315
✓ I like it!Easy to navigate and extremely helpful for quick house searches..Version: 356.0.0.1876
✓ Filter “sold within 7 days” feature removed….I love the filter “sold within 7 days”, and use it daily. This filter got removed after the update…now the filter range starts at “sold within 3 months”…wish I could downgrade to the previous version :(( ——— 2022.11.18 Update The sold within 1 week and 1 month filters are added back, thanks Redfin!.Version: 445.0.0.11066
✓ Still good!I have been searching for houses for a couple years now and using Redfin is helping, the houses are great!.Version: 509.0.0.17336
✓ Great but with issuesI used to love this app but now I’m starting to get very frustrated. A year ago I was looking for house in another state but ended up moving June 19 to a different state. Today is May 2020 and I’m helping a friend look for a house. I have tried everything to stop getting updates on houses from the first state but nothing will stop them from showing in the update feed. I have emailed support but they are zero help and tell me to unsubscribe to the email. I’ve said 3 times it’s not through email it’s in the app. Anyway on to the next issue. My friend and I are connected as co-borrowers so we can share our favorites and use the comment section. Doesn’t work! It shows her name but she can’t see my comments and I can’t see hers. I get emails that show her comments but nothing under the comment section or in the shared favorites of this app. I don’t even see the houses she has saved. This app used to be the best and now it’s gone to crap. I’m really sad because a year ago I loved it..Version: 314.2.0.2004
✓ Searching on RedfinI have read the reviews and agree with the frustration level your App causes! And, I just experienced that frustration fully! I assume Redfin is trying to get people to come to their site as one of the leading online Real Estate companies in the So Bay! But that will not last long if you don’t pay attention to the ease of functionality on your site, which currently is not user- friendly, nor is it organized in a new-user way which means Redfin is probably losing out on a great deal of traffic because your site is so frustrating! Pay attention and be competitive if you want to create a good reputation in our small beach towns! Word travel fast in small towns! D’Anne T.Version: 324.0.0.2003
✓ Fixing my review. My favorite real estate app!Edit: Previous review is for context only. This is my favorite real estate app and I love that they added more favorite folder options and options to add more to the short list. I use this app over my real estate agent’s app. Something was off with my phone, I reset my phone several times and closed the app out. It finally started working an hour after I started this review and no app update. I’m guessing this was a server side issue. Old review: The new fancy animation that was added to the feed completely lock up the app. Only way to use it now is to force closes the app, reopen then try to scroll down the feed before the saved searches load at the top..Version: 463.0.0.12939
✓ Pricing sort is driving me nuts!I used to love this app but am ready to drop it just because of the pricing sort. I get it has some glitches but I can live with those. THIS glitch, I simply can’t because it affects the entire experience of looking for a home. Each time the search refreshes itself, I have to remind the app to apply the sort order I’ve already selected (Low to high pricing) because the sort is now in some Redfin preferred order. Of note - when you go to change the setting, it still says it’s in low to high pricing sort order (untrue) since the houses are not listed that way. To fix it, I have switch the order to high to low or any other sort, go back to the app to “awaken” sort , then go back again to sort settings and switch to low to high and then back again to the app for the sort to actually reset itself to my preferred sort. Using the map - Imagine you move your search 5 miles east - you have to repeat the above process again because the home results are no longer listed in low to high pricing. In one 15 min use of the app, I have to repeat this insane reawaken and reset sort order several times! It tells me the designers don’t actually use their app. Incredibly annoying especially since it used to work properly a while back!! FIX IT please!!.Version: 210.1.0.2003
✓ Best app for Real estateWe need an app like this on the Blockchain. This would eliminate the need for real estate agents and save the consumer alot of money..Version: 516.0.0.18195
✓ So helpful to view and compare on a mapWe love how you can see large neighbourhoods with listings and prices. This helped us in our home search as well as helped us figure out what we should be listing as..Version: 356.0.0.1876
✓ Great! Just a couple minor errors.Hi! To be honest, I think Redfin is a great way you can look at houses from all around the world. It’s a good app that’s worth downloading and is very fun to look at when your bored. Just a few small problems! I think these bugs and errors are easy to fix, so please consider fixing them. Redfin is very laggy and glitchy, so it takes a while to load when I am first coming into the app. To test if it’s just MY WiFi, I check my internet connections and try out Safari, and everything works perfectly fine, so I hope you can fix that. Also, the app tends to kick me out from time to time, for no reason that I can tell of. Redfin sometimes is very complicated, though. Whenever I scroll through pictures of houses, Redfin brings me back to the very first picture when I’m still looking at one of the rooms or landscapes. It’s very frustrating. If these problems were fixed, I’d definitely give Redfin a five star ⭐️ ! Otherwise, Redfin is great. Thanks for reading my review and maybe you’ll even reply. 👍🏼.Version: 497.0.0.16416
✓ GoodNeed to be more accurate when the house are sale or pending buyers!.Version: 508.0.0.17175
✓ Great app with some frustrating bugsI think this is by far the best real estate app available, but there are a few bugs in recent updates that are very frustrating to work with. 1.) the app continues for forget my saved commuter routes, which is one of the best features of this app, but recently, when I get into the app, 9 out of 10 times, there are no saved commutes. 2.) sold prices almost always reflect the listing price, and to actually see what a home sold for, you have to scroll down to the pricing history to see what it actually sold for. This seems to even out after a few days, but I have instant notifications set for a reason! 3.) the Redfin estimate is essentially useless. It’s usually within $2-3k of whatever the list price is, and in my market, it’s proved to be entirely useless as even an estimate. My Redfin agent would estimate a home would go $50k over ask, while the app based estimate suggested just about $2k over. When it sold? $48k over ask. Long story short, don’t even look at the estimate!.Version: 312.0.0.2006
✓ We used this app and worked with Redfin to find and purchase our home. It’s very user friendly!A friend referred me to this app and I love it! We were looking for a home in Portland, OR and used the filters to narrow our search. The alerts are helpful when a new listing is added. The home details and photos are extremely useful and we benefited by seeing the estimated monthly payments and taxes. Also we used a Redfin agent to help us purchase our home. She was helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. All and all the house hunting and buying experience on Redfin is seamless and easy. I continue to use the app to see new listings, check the state of the housing market in my neighborhood and compare similar new listings with our home..Version: 400.0.0.5709
✓ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Brilliant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Love Street View Option too.👍.Version: 386.1.0.4415
✓ Fastest updates from MLS!We had been house searching for months and I had EVERY other app on my phone with search notifications enabled. I had heard Redfin was the fastest so I downloaded it as well and saved a search with notifications set up. This app is the reason I was notified within minutes of my dream home coming on the market. The other apps had a few hour delay before I received the same notification from them. Because of Redfin notifying us so quickly we were able to schedule a prompt showing with our agent and were the first to submit an offer in a very competitive market. We just closed on the house. THANK YOU Redfin! If you download more than one app I would recommend this one and Estately..Version: 274.1.0.2003
✓ Great way to view listingsThis apps permits me to view listings by easily incorporating many search features. Using the map view, I can view exactly the area that I’m interested in. The notifications are great. I’m able to get a listing even before the property is on the market! Wow!.Version: 421.1.0.8186
✓ New Listing - Zap! In your inbox!Faster than other apps in letting you know about new listings. Check their map out to see how many condos are currently for sale and/or were recently sold. Terrific!.Version: 377.1.0.3556
✓ UI glitching and condo addedGreat app and pretty user friendly for people trying to find a housing of any kind on the market. The 4 star rating is because of a small UI glitch that happens randomly. When I try to move the map in a certain area it sometimes jumps back to where I was instead of staying in the new area I had dragged to. The second reason is because I have filters on for only single family home or a townhome, but every so often there’s a listing that is considered a “townhome” but in actuality it’s a condo because of it being a “townhome styled condo” which makes it somewhat annoying when I see a home at a fair price range just to find out it’s a condo. If they could remedy that in the filters so that regardless of how a home is “styled” it doesn’t show in categories it shouldn’t belong and give somewhat false hope..Version: 424.0.0.8385
✓ Best UX everVery easy and convenient. Lots of features that made it my only app for real estate. Recommended!.Version: 461.0.0.12791
✓ Ryan WilcoxBest real estate app out there.Version: 300.1.0.2004
✓ This app is crack ❤️Love this app!! So easy to use and is more addictive than Facebook or Instagram 🤣❤️👍.Version: 443.0.0.10868
✓ Too many bugsI don’t all the properties. No matter how many times I update the app. Half of the are not showing up..Version: 364.0.0.2447
✓ HeartbreakingTo the developer: can you please make it more difficult to “unheart” favorites? I’ve now had multiple instances of accidentally “unhearting” favorites while scrolling through them. The heart is located right where a right-handed person would naturally scroll when still trying to be able to see the picture list. Because I’m searching four counties and over multiple months, I can’t always remember exactly where each house is located, particularly if it’s a new favorite. And searching by street name (if I remember it) is ineffectual. There are then literally hundreds of houses that I have to individually search back through to find the favorite. Maybe remove the “unheartable” heart from the scrolling list (so that you have to click on the entry to get to the clickable heart)? When it’s on our favorites list, it’s not like having that heart there adds anything. Or add a “are you sure” pop up? Otherwise, this app has been awesome in helping me keep track of the market as I get ready to purchase. Thanks!.Version: 274.1.0.2003
✓ Website limitationsWhile we deeply appreciate the usefulness of your website the user would greatly benefit if the “rules”were followed. We set upper sales price limits but cannot set minimums. Further, why are Mobilehomes included when we have not asked to include them in our list? Why can’t you set the list of homes from high to low or low to high sales price? Why are homes listed as a new listing when in fact they aren’t? Why can I see the listings by age of the dwelling? Or see the homes within a. Certain radius of a major building or commercial center? Why can’t we limit our search within a certain radius? Please improve our search features. Thank you so much..Version: 489.0.0.15624
✓ App provides great info, only fails to transition notifications between networksI have been using Redfin for a while now (more than a year), and have been happy to get updates and notifications regarding houses/real-estate properties, based on my filters. One issue that bothers me though, is this: I have set Redfin to not work over Cellular network; now, if I open a notification while on Cellular network, the app opens to a blank page with a popup; at this point I lose the notification and the page, even if I switch to a WiFi network. I think it would be useful, if Redfin let me “pulldown” on the page to reload it, after having switched the network (if all of this is even possible). But this does not mean I don’t like the app. It works great, and provides me with awesome information about the properties that interest me, allowing me to make well-informed decisions and choices..Version: 256.0.0.2002
✓ Much better than the other 2 RE appsEveryone searching for a home knows about the other 2 RE app (Tr & Zi - which are both owned by the same company). I’ve used both of those apps extensively in my searching. They each have a few features/ available data that the other does not. So in order to get complete info on any given home (taxes, school info, street view of home, sometimes even the written description, etc) - you would have to go to both back & forth between both sites/apps. I’ve only recently learned about Redfin and the Redfin app. Much better! Redfin has ALL of the features/ available data in one place. It’s easy to use in either list or map format. And it seems to be more current as to when homes go on & off the market. I deleted the other 2 apps and am now using RF exclusively. Happy Home Hunting!.Version: 188.1.0.2003
✓ Love this app!I usually don’t write reviews but this app is one I enjoy using, its very easy to navigate and understand, you can “heart” houses you love and come back to them to determine which ones you want to view. They also have a function that allows you to contact the realtors and see when they have open houses. It shows when a house you are looking for is already sold or pending so you don’t waste your time. It gives you estimates of pay and has filters to determine what your looking in a house. I’ve used many apps like this to look for houses but this is by far my favorite one and it is now the only one I use. The only thing I wished this app had is a place for the ones you “X” out In the same way they have a place for the ones you “heart” I dislike that I have to scroll through houses I’ve already looked at and don’t want to see. Even with that this app is a 5 out of 5!.Version: 250.0.0.2002
