Review Summary
While some people find Trulia: Homes For Sale & Rent very useful for house hunting with a clean layout, excellent filters, and unique features like the crime map, many users have been frustrated with recent updates causing issues, glitches, and redundant notifications, ultimately suggesting that improvements are needed to regain its former reliability.
Used to love this app. The most recent update with uber integration messed it up. I would select get directions to see how far away from my job, my husband's job, and our parents house was when looking for potential houses. This has a big impact on our house we will be selecting. Now when I select get directions it just brings me straight to the uber app and no longer shows directions. I think its great to be able to select uber. But you should also be able to select see directions if you want.
App was great until the recent update dividing listings between agents and others tabs. Can't it all just be on 1 screen? I want to see both, at the same time. It's also not showing all properties for sale. I cleared any filters I had on and it still says "no results found". I know the housing market is hot right now but not that hot. Please fix the app, Trulia folks.

It works pretty well, and I've been happy with it for the most part. BUT, if you're just curious about an area OTHER than where you're looking, DO NOT use this app. I was just curious about Las Vegas and viewed a few places, and now I can't this area out of my feed. It seems to be strengthened by their algorithm. I can't find anything in settings or search options to fix this. I've gotten no response from customer support. If it weren't for this one really annoying problem I'd give it 5 stars.
I like the mortgage calculator and photo "see all" options over Zillow's. What I don't like is that there doesn't seem to be a way to see your saved searches to remove or modify them. And worse, it doesn't seem to update the properties I'm being shown when I change the filter parameters. Frustrating.
This is a really good app when looking to buy or rent a houses or apartments. The layout is clean and easy to understand, 99% of the addresses that are given will lead you straight to the destination. This app does a great job of updating what is on the market and new rent options, it also does a great job of understanding what you are looking for and making sure it gives you the places that fit you desires whilst not preventing you from seeing and exploring entirely different positions.
I used to use this app as my only real estate finding tool for years. The last few updates have been horrendous. Now in alerts, they have removed the location and price of the home and the thumbnail photos of the property are so tiny you cant see anything unless you click the listing and wait for it to load. Wastes a ton of time when you have to view every single listing just to find out it's not even a place you'd remotely be interested in.
I gave 2 stars because I do like using the app. It's great to search for rental properties and for homes for sale. The reason I only gave 2 stars is the amount of emails that Trulia was sending. Every time I checked my email, I had to scroll through at least 20 emails from Trulia. When I checked, they were sending over 200 emails to me weekly. That's just absurd. That's nearly 30 emails per day. I get it, a new property matched a search! User beware! Trulia will use all your email storage!
Not terrible, but not up to date. It doesnt update info on homes as fast as the other apps. In fact, we found the perfect home om Trulia. However, when we called, it was already pending sale AND had a back up offer. Other real estate apps actually showed this. However, even a day after i called, this house still showed it was 100% available and had no pending offers. Very disappointing. Three stars because its user friendly and other than thay big issue, i enjoyed it.

Pretty good app but filters are incorrect. Add filter for garage & half the results disappear. Remove it, see a ton of listings that have garages. Make the people listing the property fill out all fields. Also I would like to exclude a property if I do not like it. I do not want a property with half the appliances missing. I keep seeing the same results. Unless the listing changed, I do not wish to see it anymore. Give an option to hide it unless the listing has updated info. Overall good UI.
It's a decent app for house hunting. It doesn't seem to have all the features and filters that Zillow has, but it's not far off. The chief complaint I have is that despite having a saved search with specific parameters (i.e. minimum lot size, location, etc.), the "recommended homes" that I receive do not stay within those parameters, often recommending homes on properties much smaller than I have set, and often in locations well outside of the area I specified.
