Advice on Openlistings service

[Dharini Sukumaran]

I am a first time home buyer in the bay area and I just read about using openlistings.com to represent the buying agent. I need some feedback from people that worked with Openlistings for buying properties. They are basically an online real restate brokerage firm that has a handful of local agents working remotely. With them, the home shopping part is the onus of the buyer and once a buyer decides on a property, an offer is made online(with promises of helping making an offer), and then they claim to assign a single agent after the offer is made until the closing process. Please share your experiences
