Really like the app. Only recommendation I would make is the push notifications. Every time I get a noticed on a property I saved and I click on it, it takes me to that listing. However when I click on the back button it always logs me off completely on the app. What I really want it to do is take me to the main page.
Reviews for Real Estate by HAR.com - Texas
← Back to Real Estate by HAR.com - TexasI came here to suggest fixing the readjusting zoom, but I see it's already been commented on several times. To elaborate, when I zoom in to an area, it zooms back out slightly as if it's adjusting focus. It's obnoxious when I'm in a hurry to see homes in a particular area. I would like to control exactly where I stop zooming. The second thing that I think is a downgrade in the new update, is needing to scroll down to get directions instead of hitting the next tab. Please fix these 2 issues.
Very informative. I don't like the way some of the things when you back up to go review something else, The way it can get lost. I worry sometimes about trying to find land. Some of the realtors are very uninformative about problems. Like land being landlocked, no right aways to get to the property. In 2024 I'm surprised that Texas would allow land to be sold or for sale that you have no access to. But the app is very helpful.
The new update is BEYOND horrible! HAR for me has always had the best real estate app. NOW It looks and operates as if you reverted back twenty years! It's clunky, NOT user friendly at all.....THIS update is putting a lot of pressure on me to just settle for whatever home I can get, rather than the ONE my family and I want, just so I can delete it forever! Way to go!
The UI... the entire map decides to zoom out when you want to redraw your search area...every...time. The little window that pops up whenever you (usually accidentally) tap on a house is not dismissable with a simple swipe down, no, if you even so much as touch it, it takes you to another window unless you tap the small x or press your back button. It's frustrating. Also can the "not interested" houses be a different color or tag or something?
All the information you could possibly need (as long as seller provides), including local tax rates, crime statistics, school districts, etc. Most every home I see on any other site is included here, so it's a one stop shop, no switching back and forth between other apps. All it needs is a 'Buy Now' button!
They added a new feature on the mobile app that shows the home & they are too close to see the full elevation of the home. It looks horrible, especially after we pay for professional photos to be taken, then they run them. A feature that would be much more useful would be to be able to select multiple properties to remove them from our favorites. Sometimes, trying to reinvent the wheel is not a good idea. Also, they took away the SQ Ft of the home once you clicked on the listing.
I don'tike the new update its horrible. The old version works perfect. I have installed on my phone. I hate it no useful. When you saved your search updates doesn't reflect your save search. Return back to the old version. Now if you have it on your computer/laptop you are good but phone no go.
I loved this app but the new update is absolutely terrible. The app no longer shows where you are on the map in relation to the homes you're looking at. When you click the location button it moves the map but doesn't actually show you the blue dot and where you are. The filter section is no longer user friendly. The app was MUCH better prior to the update.
It was working great.But the last few days I haven't been getting any notifications for new houses on the market for my saved searches.. & I was getting notifications all the time! I get notified abt price changes for homes I've hearted, but that's it. Please fix this. Also, some new construction houses aren't showing up on the map. They'll come up when I put in the address, & they'll be under "similar homes nearby" though. Other than that tho, ❤️ all the filter opt's & all the ways to search.
amazing advertisement love the photos
The application leaves much to be desired. Including an intuitive way to state them. Which of course, them ommission of, is by design. Telling of HAR.
New update is horrible. When you click on a home, then click on the image to view pictures it just takes you to another page with the hime info and the annoying banner with the agent info that takes up half the screen. Then you have to click a THIRD time to actually view the images. It's pretty annoying. Oh, and nearby search no longer zooms to my location even though permissions for location never changed.
Love the travel option if your in an area of interest while driving.
best app around! without the annoying Zillow agents pestering you for business. 10 out 10
Quick, easy, and can be very specific on your search criteria
Save search feature is awful. You set up all the filters and save it, but then it refuses to notify you of anything. And if you try to edit the search filters at all it completely resets all of the other filters so the only one saved is the one you tried to change. Sometimes if you reload the app it might come back, but sometimes you have to input everything again, hope it saves even that, and if it doesn't repeat ad nauseam. You better just get it right the first time.
The app is fine for the most part, except I continually get notifications and when I click on them it takes me to my saved search and shows "no updates" and is empty. Does this all day telling me updates to my saved searches but when I go there, it says nothing is new. So the feature is useless. Otherwise it shows most of the relevant info, pictures and map viewing is good, and the contact feature works well.
Overall good app but don't trust the "time on HAR" that is highlighted in green under the address. The listing agent can manipulate that. Over the years whenever houses close to my house come up for sale/ lease, I like to check and see how the market is my area. Several times I've seen houses be empty for 8 or 9 months but the listing never shows more than 37 days for example. Then when it finally sales/ leases, it'll show "18 days on HAR" when in reality it was on HAR for 261 days. Just FYI
Kinda finicky, very sensitive, not too user friendly in my opinion. I always have to reset my search filters bc they don't save, when they're not ignored. For example, when I choose to only view lots for sale, lots under contract, pending and sold still return. I can't buy a property that is already sold, that's why I chose to only view lots with a for sale status. Really annoying.
