Movoto | Real Estate Reviews

I can’t even use MovotoRealEstate because it crashes the moment I start using it. Just downloaded it, opened it up, I get to the welcome screen and boom! It crashes and MovotoRealEstate closes down. Tried it 10 times. Crashes at “Welcome to Movoto, Let’s get started.” Closed it out completely, it still does it. Removed MovotoRealEstate and reinstalled it, it still does it. Closed it out and retried it after some time, it still does it.

I like how MovotoRealEstate lets my husband know when I’ve liked a house but every time I try to move the list the map moves making the list change. It’s very frustrating. I have my finger on the list and try to swipe up, the move readjusts so instead of looking at the list of my desired area, I spend my time trying to keep the map from moving.

The map feature on MovotoRealEstate is especially frustrating. Any time you try to zoom in on an area you have to exit out of it telling you there are no properties matching your criteria before you can keep looking or zooming. I have found really interesting listings on MovotoRealEstate that I don’t see on other apps which is nice… but the map feature sends me away every time

MovotoRealEstate always manages to kick me out, and when it doesn’t, it will just randomly stop populating photos on the house ads. I constantly have to switch from my phone to my computed just so I don’t lose my mind refreshing MovotoRealEstate . I have a new iPhone 13 max pro, so not sure why this always happens.

We are actively looking for a house in another state. Sometimes MovotoRealEstate resets for where we live currently.
Looking for a specific town or county but MovotoRealEstate sends me houses from as far away as 40miles. We looked there a few times so MovotoRealEstate thinks we want to continue getting info from there. We cannot tell MovotoRealEstate to discontinue that search. I don’t like the bombardment of the same info clogging my email. Why do I still use MovotoRealEstate ? Because the pictures are bigger. The information is informative. But again I don’t like a lot of the information given.

I prefer Movoto to other apps but it’s frustrating when app freezes up. You can view 2 or 3 homes, but then app freezes up or takes an excessive period of time to load.

The only resolution is to close app and start over. I would recommend app developers take a serious look into this issue.

I love the Movoto site, it’s the best for home searches out there. And I used to love MovotoRealEstate , even though it’s always been a little unstable. But I haven’t been able to use it for months now. It starts to load for a second or two, then crashes, no matter how many times i try to open it. There have been several updates, but nothing has changed. Hope this gets fixed so I can use it again.

I’ve started to use MovotoRealEstate an I do like it a lot. Seems to be accurate compared to others. I’m still using it with a few others.
Things that can improve on MovotoRealEstate.

1. App freezing and crashing when pictures are loading.
Have to reopen MovotoRealEstate . Gets annoying when searching.
2. Should have a mortgage calculator so you can estimate what your mortgage might be. That’s a plus for me.
3. This would be nice to have a map for area for crime schools Ect like one of the others. That a suggestion.

Overall good app easy to use.

by FritzGreen

This is my favorite home search app by far, and I’ve been using it for years. It is easy to use, and the interface makes a lot of sense. I highly recommend it. My gripes are: that the latest version is somewhat unstable when viewing photos or loading maps (restarts occasionally required); sometimes photos are not all loading on a house until you restart; I wish there was an option to use Google Maps instead of Apple Maps; and I wish there was a way to create a more specific geographic area search. Despite those issues, I still love Movoto.

So far everything is just like the website except I don’t like that I can’t see the pics individually and zoom in and I also don’t like how if I search a city and get no results it doesn’t give me an option to search nearby areas like it does on the website. But other than that im hoping to find my first home on here!

by DeePinkston

I love the site. You truly receive new homes as they are listed daily the only drawback is during my process when I see a new home it’s very difficult to know if the home is under contract or not prior to reaching out to view the home. My example is now I have a home under contract for at least two weeks and it’s showing a status on the website as being for sale.

MovotoRealEstate is great. Makes house hunting fun! I really find the layout of everything, especially the pictures very helpful. Especially bc the pictures take up my whole iPhone screen. Adding to favorites is great too. Thanks, Movoto!

by Crystanthony

I’ve been using The other popular search apps and find them to be disappointing. Movoto is a superior search tool and easier to use. Much more organized and a better information source.

I want to look for this house so badly but I don’t understand why you never respond me back at two times in a row! Why?

Movoto by OJO is by far and away the best real estate search portal on the market. It has more listings than the other guys and even more importantly, more data and insights about homes, neighborhoods and even sustainability which is very important to me.

One of the best parts about Movoto by OJO is all the support you get from the OJO team after you start your search. I was paired with an OJO Concierge who helped me navigate the buying process and shop for a mortgage. Simply amazing!!

Without naming them, I have tried to use other realty sites and it was a waste of my time and extremely aggravating. I tried to limit my search and Z, R, Red, etc. sent me a bunch of crap, not what I had filtered down. This site has sent me properties as they are listed that are in the exact location, within price parameters and otherwise what I specified. I have deleted the other apps and I am relying in MOTOVO. Way to go and when the right house is listed, I intend to snap it up. You snooze, you lose.

The best app to find your next house , I found the house here and closed the deal before it shows on other apps and saved some cash, use it you will never regret.

by Siempre Dope

I LOVE MovotoRealEstate. More than the competitors. Recently it started force closing. It begins to load and then it just crashes. I have more than 1 device and it does it on each. Can’t wait for this to be fixed because I’m definitely missing this. Until then I’ll have to go online because the others just don’t compare.

by LesainRwc

I just installed the program yesterday to assist a time sensitive home search.

The only issue I have is the program ALWAYS gets stuck
when you try to view the listings photos.

The first page loads fine but when you click the PHOTOS square the page goes blank, you can’t get the photos to run AND I have to close the page and start over, this happens every time I try to look at the extra photos even if I wait 30 minutes for the page to load.

Any suggestion on how to fix this problem ?

It’s has helped me a lot searching for homes. It’s very much accurate with the market value. What pops up as new to make me decide on the property and schedule a viewing. I recommend for investors and first time home buyers to see and compare homes they like in the areas market.

by Vickytran66

Movoto has been a tool that I would reach out first for my home search. I only wish if they can add “stories” for filtering like 1 or 2 story- then it would be a perfect tool.

Don’t like the emails but like the search options and open house feature

by Yamotoshi

I love map search. It’s very smooth and functional. In addition of MLS data, MovotoRealEstate provides school information from GreatSchool.

by Senior Condo Hunter

Movoto has new listings before Zillow so I know about a listing even before my realtor.
Keeps me ahead of the others!

by LifegateWarrior

Easy to navigate. Easy to read font. High quality

by Gmadador

MovotoRealEstate is fast and up to date, it makes looking at pictures of homes more enjoyable.

by ThriftyShipper

I like the ease of use and how detailed the listings are. This definitely helps with the home search and saves a lot of showing time.

Many thanks...

Being able to see the price history is a bonus.

by Carlos Boniato

I find MovotoRealEstate very easy to use, not only this version,but also all the previous. It’s very informative and well designed.

by Aremley

Great app to search for homes. Movoto tends to service more remote areas than Redfin. I like Movoto, because years ago I bought a house that I found in my search on MovotoRealEstate.

by Daddy-Bill

Much better than Zillow!!!
