If a consumer wants to find a REO property (house in foreclosure), the information is free. B of A, and Wells Fargo, as well as OCWEN, offer lists of properties; and, there is no fee to access these lists---gratis. CRNhome's list is only available when the consumer agrees to pay $1.99 for the handling and postage of a mailing, that they allege is part of their program. This mailing is superfluous. I wanted to see what a consumer gets for enrolling---so, I paid $1.99 and eventually received the mailing that was promised. The time between the initial enrollment and the time that I received this superfluous mailing, I received a phone call from one of their representatives----he was a fast talker, who wouldn't take "no" for an answer: I declined to pay $19.99 for some nebulous offer of additional services---and yet, 5 minutes after the conversation ended, that's exactly what was debited to my credit card. So, of course, I spoke with a supervisor; and I promised that if that charge was not reversed, promptly, that I would file an action against CRNhome, on the grounds of false pretenses. Good news---I was promptly refunded. Long story short: CRNhome is not a well-networked clearinghouse.
