You've heard a lot about free product trials and digital downloads in our Friday Freebies column. Today, we're excited to break away from the norm by highlighting a product that doesn't have a free trial at all--because it's always free to agents and brokers.
Househappy is a bit of an upstart. Since entering the competitive portal space 18 months ago, the site has differentiated itself with a distinct "Pinterest-like" focus on visual search. Visitors to the site's main page are greeted with a grid of nothing but crisp, clean property photos that can be filtered by criteria like location, price, seller concessions, nearby attractions, and more.
But for real estate pros, the best part of Househappy is the site's hardlined determination to NOT make money off of agents and brokers. Profiles are free to both consumers and Realtors, and there are no banner nor advertising programs for agents to buy. You'll never have to worry about a competitor's contact info being shown next to your listing, either.
How? It's all possible thanks to Househappy's unique business model. You can read more about that in our review, along with details about the nifty features offered to agents, like:
