help
love this app - just wish there was a way to search for keywords like “guest house” within the app...i know that’s possible on the website. also, have had a bug for the last few weeks where when i look at photos in landscape mode it isn’t centered correctly and i can’t see most of the picture. i’m on an iphone x any help is much appreciated!
An easy choice
Clair Hoyt is the BEST! We were immediately blown away with her friendliness and customer service. She's a very kind person and very helpful. Not to mention she's great at what she does. She coordinated everything we needed before visiting Boston in order to buy a place and move. She even picked us up at the airport so we could immediately go look at the string of places that we were interested in. We found a great place that we were happy with. Even after everything was said and done, she checked in with us to make sure we were still happy, or if we needed services for moving to our new home. She's thoughtful and thorough with her work. She is a pleasure to work with and made looking for a place to live in a completely new place EASY. We highly recommend her specifically, but also believe in the company she works for, Compass. What a user friendly website/app! It made everything smooth and easy to evaluate the places we were looking at. We could easily sort by price, location, and qualifications we were looking for in a place. We loved that Clair had access to our collections so that she could see our comments, talk to us, know what we were looking for, and she could recommend new places. It made our search easy to look at places that our realtor already scouted out for us. Overall, 5 stars for Clair, Compass and our overall experience.
Ok but lots of issues
Been using for 4 months. Nice interface, good potential, not there yet. Often frustrating. Notifications don’t work properly like other apps. When notification for a new property displays, when you click on it it only takes you to the app and does not take to to the relevant page for the property, which means then you have to scroll through all of your searches to see where the new listing is (and this can often be laggy, so the new listing may not even show up right away when you scroll to it. This is especially important when your agent writes to you about a specific property and you click on the notification to read the message. Doesn’t take you to the page. Once you click on a notification, it disappears from your notifications, unlike every other app. So when you can’t find where the notification was supposed to take you and you go back to read which listing it pertained to, it’s gone. Sometimes when you add listing to your collections,. They don’t update. Yesterday when I added comments to a property for my agent to read, they did not appear in the app, but an email message was sent saying there was a new comment. Many bugs. Keep improving please.
This app and Compass site are garbage
I only downloaded the app because I couldn’t view the collection that my agent shared with me. The website was just blank on that page. Luckily, I was able to view the collection through the app. That’s basically all I can do. The search page is awful. You can enter a full address and it won’t even show you a map of where the address is. Search only works if you enter a listing that is listed, because of this, you can’t even search the neighborhood for available listings. This next one is probably the most annoying issue with the app. You cannot use map view I’m collections. You can only see the list view. If you try to use the map, it hovers above New Brunswick. If you move the map to the correct city, your saved listings are not on the map. Note: if you mark a listing as “not until interested”, you can’t add it back to your collection. You can find it and it’s still marked as saved. If you un-save and re-save, it still doesn’t populate in your collection. Basically, this app is useless for anything besides viewing and making comments on listings that your agent adds to your shared collection. Trying to add listings to the collection on your own is basically impossible unless you find the address on another website and sometimes this app will take you to it.
Improving quickly
Have been using this app recently as I’m planning a move to a different city, where Compass has a presence. At first, the search functionality felt a bit limited, especially when compared to more established apps like Zillow. However, I quickly noticed that updates were being launched consistently and has made the overall user interface of the app much easier to use and navigate. The listings on Compass are plentiful, with some of them being exclusive to Compass before it shows up on other apps and websites. I plan on using this app and a Compass agent when it comes time for me to move.
Integrity? Morals? Ethics in Business?
Calling all Individualists, greedmongers, bottom liners,... if you’re interested in maximizing profits at the expense of human relationships, if you’re out for what you can get regardless of someone else’s story, and if you don’t believe connection and relationships matter in business, then go with compass. They are about what you can get regardless of who’s on the other side of the transaction. Sound familiar these days? They will ask you to NOT read even one letter written and submitted by prospective buyers with their offer— not to bother taking the time to learn about who might be living in the space you called home, not to think about their story when making a decision. The “human element” has been removed because people’s personal story shouldn’t matter, right? This review is about the Compass Real Estate approach across all markets.
Tapping on a notification or email...
A few weeks ago, when I’d get a notification or email from the app I could tap on the banner or notification or the link in the email and it would take me directly to the home I was getting a notification about. But in the last two updates that’s gone away, and if you tap a notification, you can’t retrieve it so u less you can memorize the address in the split second it shows or and re-type it in the search box when the app opens, you’re out of luck. Same for email links... tap a link to a house and it just takes you to the app, not the actual page of the home you’re interested in. Please fix this. I’ve gone back to Redfin instead since the Compass app hasn’t been working.
Basic functionality is there, but performs slowly
I downloaded the app to see if I could get a snappier/better experience on mobile. This app doesn’t give you that. The map is slow - panning around and waiting for results to populate could be faster. Menus and such are slow to respond. And sometimes full-sized photos won’t render if you decide to open one. For being a technology-focused real estate company, I would have expected their app to be better than others. Looks like I’ll be sticking to the mobile web experience for now.
The front door of RE
This app is the best portal and only way to see all the homes for sale. Compass has coming soon listings that can not be found anywhere else online.. why use anything else when Compass is providing all on and off market homes. 5 stars!
My clients love it
You can save searches and comment together on everything so easily. My clients are easily finding the right properties fast, and our touring itinerary is so organized that all the headaches of a typical home search are omitted from the usual process. Bravo Compass 👏🏼
Use the app every day
I love being able to organize properties in one place along with the ability to share firsthand experience via comments for each specific property.
Home finding in today’s world - Great Tool
This app is a game changer for searching, saving and collaborating in the world of real estate. Finding the homes I want to save and view in real time and on my own time. Exciting tool and easy to use.
Crashes every single time I use it
Very buggy app. I am using an iPhone 6 iOS 11.4.1 and do not exaggerate when I say it crashes every time I use it. My only work around is to delete the app from my phone, download it again, and use it for the 10-15 min I have before it crashes again. Frustrating because I can see how useful it could be to interact with my realtor with the tool...if it actually worked.
Best Real Estate App Ever
COLLECTIONS is a game changer. My wife and I can streamline our searches together by sharing comments and updates. It’s all under one roof in real time. Plus there’s a built in MARKETS app that shows real-time market data. Love it!
Usability poor, features nice
Notifications are almost unusable if you’re working with an agent and a collection. They neither go to the chat (“discussion”) nor the house comment in a Collection. You have to navigate to the collection and look for a tiny red dot to see a change. Collections are great, however, and the design UI is clean. I like sharing with a spouse and an agent.
