Is Property Shark Worth it?
I was curious if you guys would suggest I register and pay for the services of Property Shark in order to get information on properties I may be interested on doing deals on? Is this a good idea or a waste of money? Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks

This is Brian from PropertyShark.com. As mentioned in a prior post, paying for a subscription truly does depend on your needs and your region. Real Estate professionals (Developers, Brokers, Appraisers, Lenders, etc) and Investors seem to pay and like the service. The browsing one time homebuyer may not need the depth of data (although we are seeing a quickly increasing trend where savvy homebuyers are doing their own comps and detailed property research). We offer free accounts with limited access everywhere we cover so people can get a good idea of what we have.
Also, we have a customer service staff (718-715-1758) who can explain which offerings are available in which areas, and we offer a money back guarantee on subscriptions (which almost nobody requests). Hundreds of thousands of real estate professionals and investors use PropertyShark.com. You can read about one of our pre-foreclosures users in the November issue of Business 2.0 (http://money.cnn.com/2006/10/24/magazines/business2/newrules_foreclosures.biz2/index.htm)
Feel free to call us with any questions (we have customer service here from 9-6 ET daily) or try out a free account online. Also, if you are in the NYC area, come to our next user networking party in Manhattan.
Sincerely,
Brian
