I have been a member of House for Sale since they first started by buying two zip codes. Being a start-up and with a price point so low I thought what the heck. I looked at it as a very small investment as there was virtually no downside and the concept was so simple it just made sense. It appeared to be something new and different and I just liked the overall feel. The guys running the show seemed to be upfront, honest, and by only charging $5 per month for an exclusive zip code until I got a lead... it felt like a no-brainer.
Two years later I still have both zip codes, and both have produced leads. Now I'm not paying $5 anymore, but a 'whopping' $35 per zip. It's the cheapest lead source I have feeding my pipeline. As time goes on, I suspect that the number of leads coming in will only continue to increase. I mean where else can you get an exclusive zip code for $35. This is the best deal for lead generation source that I have found. So far, I couldn't be happier, and my only regret is that I didn't buy more as everything is sold out around my area. I'm on the waitlist but don't see anything opening up anytime soon unless someone moves or retires.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience, Mike.
