listingreferralgroup.com Avis 

I paid for a service that was represented as producing at least two appointments per week. More than seven months later, after supplying over 3,000 phone numbers, I have received zero actual listing appointments.

The issue is not simply that “the market is slow.” The service I experienced was very different from what I believed I was purchasing. The leads I received were generally weak, often similar to FSBO opportunities already being contacted by numerous other agents, and it appears the same opportunities may be distributed to multiple paying customers.

I previously raised concerns and was encouraged to give the company more time. I did. Months passed and nothing materially improved.

At this point, I cannot justify the cost based on the results. paid Zelle, thousands of contacts provided, seven-plus months invested, and zero appointments is an unacceptable outcome compared with how the service was presented.

UPDATE!

**$5,000 Paid. Months of Excuses. An Appalling Experience With Listing Referral Group.**

I strongly regret paying Listing Referral Group $5,000. My experience with this company has been one of the most frustrating professional relationships I've encountered.

Before signing up, I was told in writing that LRG would work toward setting one to two listing appointments per week. What I've experienced instead is a steady stream of FSBO contacts, many of whom have little or no interest in hiring a listing agent. In numerous cases, I'm simply instructed to call the seller myself and attempt to arrange an appointment.

I've followed up with these referrals, spoken directly with sellers, attended 1 appointment that was arranged, and consistently provided feedback. What I've uncovered is deeply concerning.

One seller was described as someone who would consider listing with an agent if her property didn't sell. When I spoke with her, she explicitly rejected listing representation. Another referral described a seller as both "not in a rush" and "Must sell." When I questioned that obvious discrepancy, LRG couldn't provide a straightforward explanation.

This isn't an isolated incident. It's part of a recurring pattern I've raised with the company repeatedly.

And then there's the customer service.

Mike Edwards, LRG's client manager, has been extraordinarily dismissive. Instead of addressing legitimate concerns about referral quality and accuracy, he repeatedly responds with lectures about how I should prospect, build relationships and follow up with sellers.

I didn't pay $5,000 to be patronized or to have basic questions repeatedly avoided.

After months of unproductive exchanges, I formally requested a different account manager. Mike's entire response was:

"I am the Client Manager and I will remain your point of contact."

That response perfectly captures my experience with this company. A paying customer raises serious concerns, asks for accountability and requests an alternative contact. LRG's response is effectively to shut down the conversation.

The company has also refused my request for an early refund, leaving me to pursue the six-month refund provision in the agreement.

I have documented the referrals, seller conversations, conflicting information and correspondence with LRG. This review is based on my direct experience, not speculation.

**My advice to other real estate agents: Think very carefully before handing Listing Referral Group thousands of dollars.**

Ask exactly how they define a qualified referral. Ask how many actual appointments they will arrange. Get every representation in writing. Read the refund provisions carefully.

I wish I had never entered into this agreement. I have completely lost confidence in both the service and the people responsible for addressing customer concerns.

I strongly advise people, especially agents in California, to avoid using ListingReferrals.com. I spent approximately $5,000 with them years ago after being promised leads and referral opportunities. I provided everything they requested — contact information, emails, names of people to call, and additional materials.

Unfortunately, nothing was ever done. No meaningful follow-up, no calls made, no results, and no accountability. It felt like the service completely disappeared after payment was collected.

What was most frustrating was trying to recover the money afterward, which never happened. In my experience, it was a complete waste of money and time.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I do not want others to make the same mistake I did. Please do your research carefully before signing any agreement with this company.

They make strong promises upfront, but the actual delivery has not matched expectations. In the past two months, I’ve received only one lead within a one-hour driving radius, which is well below what was implied.

Communication and results have been disappointing, and refund policies appear very rigid regardless of performance. Overall, my experience has not aligned with what was represented at the start.

I paid $2,500 to Listing Referral Group after they guaranteed five closings in a year and weekly leads. Three months in, I’ve received only a handful of email leads, and most of them literally say “The seller does not plan on listing with a realtor for now.” These are not qualified leads—they’re no better than FSBO contacts anyone could dig up on their own.

The company also does not respond to emails or provide support. Once they take your money, they stop communicating. This is not an isolated case—the BBB already shows 20 complaints against this company, many of which they don’t even bother responding to anymore. You’ll also find dozens of negative reviews on Yelp and other sites describing the same issues: false promises, worthless leads, and no accountability.

By comparison, I started with another lead generation company at the same time and secured two listings within one month. The difference is night and day.

Listing Referral Group has failed to deliver on their contractual guarantees, misrepresented their services, and ignored communication. Chen the BBB page... OVER 20 COMPLAINTS, AND THE COMPANY QUIT EVEN RESPONDING TO THE MOST RECENT COMPLAINTS. Save your money and do not use this company.

if zero was a star, that is what i would give. RUN they are scammers

Worked with them for 6 months, in the agreement they agree to give you a full refund minus any listings you took during the duration of the contract. When asked on the status of my refund mutiple times I get no answer as to when that will be coming over.

Stay away from these people. They promise 1-2 leads of seller leads a week and do not deliver. They even refuse to refund you after 6 months as is written in the contract if you are unhappy with their service. Look up all their bad reviews on bbb nothing but complaints and they keep scamming people.
