Realm: #1 homeowner app

Verification does not work and continues to bounce back to the App Store.

If you are thinking about renovating and are looking for guidance pick Realm! They really made the process so much easier and took all of the guesswork out of my ADU project. I just got my deposit refunded and construction started last week- love my contractor, love my project Advisor AND LOVE REALM

Before starting to use their service, the initial advisor stated that I would need to pay their fee of $299.00 before they start working with me to find bids with contractors, then if I ended up not signing with a contractor that I like, it would be refunded. The reality is that they won’t refund you, they change their statement and say that they will only refund it once you sign with one of their contractors.

It’s been months when I have sent texts and emails weekly. They took my money and never called back. I’ve had 1.5 estimates in 4 months. Absolute waste of money.

They will connect you with new comers contractors / designers, if they work great, you took a risk and realm got a coupon if they don’t work, you paid both realm and professional and don’t expect any help from realm. Avoid this middle man at all cost

I recently updated the app and now it won’t load at all.

App seemed to work for a few weeks but now upon loading it just goes black

We are so grateful to have found Realm! We have been trying to fix our house for ages but always hearing horror stories about renovating. Realm helped us understand what was possible and fair and then find a great contractor. I’m finally happy with my house! Great service worth every penny!

Installed the app and received call to sell their paid service (help you to plan your renovation and source contractor). Since I am in the market for contractor, I paid and tried their service. My conclusion was completely useless. They basically send my project to their list of contractors and see who is interested. Then, schedule a walkthrough with me and provide the bid. My project is pretty small and didn’t get a lot of interest. Realm project manager is not responsive at all, it took me over 2 months to get 3 bids and missed my timeline. I had questions and wanted clarification on the bid. They never came back to me. In term of price, the bids are not competitive based on my other recent project. Overall, realm helped me to schedule 3 walkthroughs and get 3 bids in two months time. That’s it.

Ever since I tried this app out, I have received an average of 5 spam phone calls a day trying to sell me home improvement. If I could give 0 stars, I would. Run the other way!
