Common Questions

What lenders ask before switching.

Is Milo really a Homebot alternative, or a different category?

Milo competes with Homebot for the home-value-report use case, but Milo is fundamentally a customer retention platform, not a marketing tool. Where Homebot is one product (a report), Milo is an integrated, in-house retention system: fully white-label reports + home search + behavioral monitoring + CRM-native alerts. Lenders typically replace Homebot, MyHomeIQ, AND parts of their predictive intent vendor in one move.

How is the 98.5% match rate possible when Homebot is at ~70%?

Two reasons. First, Milo blends 4 industry-leading AVMs (Otto, Quantarium, Cherre, Zillow) plus advanced suppression rules, no AVM is accurate for every property type in every market, but together they cover the gaps. Second, Milo accepts your AVM via API if you'd prefer to use it alongside or instead of ours. The result: every additional match is another past client reached, and another potential loan you don't lose to a competitor.

How can I be sure Milo will really work for us?

Since day one, we've put our money where our mouth is. Milo is the only enterprise home value report provider that doesn't require a contract. Start as small as you want with transparent pay-as-you-go pricing to ensure you're making the right decision. Once you're ready to commit, we'll help you lock in some big discounts. Our typical customer sees a 697% ROI, and we're happy to give references.

What does it cost vs Homebot or MyHomeIQ?

Milo is pay-as-you-go with no contracts, minimums, or onboarding fees. You pay only for what you send. Most lenders find Milo cost-competitive on a per-report basis and meaningfully cheaper on a cost-per-hot-lead basis given the 5–35x conversion lift. Homebot and MyHomeIQ typically require annual contracts with seat-based pricing. Once you're sure Milo is a long-term fit, we'll lock in big discounts.

Will my LOs have to learn another system?

No, that's the whole point. Milo is designed to be invisible to LOs. Reports go out from your CRM, branded alerts land in their inbox, and tier-ranked work queues live where they already work. There are no Milo logins for LOs, ever. The lender admin uses Milo's web UI to design and configure the system; LOs simply get more, better-prioritized opportunities in the tools they're already using every day.

How long does it take to switch from Homebot or MyHomeIQ?

Most lenders are live in 7 days. We provide white-glove onboarding (no fees, ever), native CRM integrations, and a tested migration playbook. The hardest part is usually waiting out a contract end date with the incumbent vendor, but Milo's pay-as-you-go model means you can easily run both in parallel during transition.
