·I got contacted by them as well. Haven't really found anything about them.
Anyone has any input on them?
Thank you in advance.

·Too new for my taste!
I've been in the property preservation industry since 2009, and I'm always looking to expand. Got an email from Preservation Cure today too, and thought I'd look at the reviews.
I can't find anything, and THAT is a huge sign to me, to stay away. If I had time, I'd research the business license in CA, see who the "owners" are, and research their names. It's very possible they have done this before, or don't even have a real business license. I'd be interested to know, but I would be very careful.

·If you can't find any information on a company it probably it boils down to one or a combination of the following:
1) The company uses 20th century marketing techniques
2) The company is shady, dishonest, or an outright scam
3) The company is the bottom rung on the middleman ladder
Statistical analysis compiled from a nation database shows that either #2 or #3 appear in 100% of cases.

·I contacted them regarding their pricing twice. Still haven't gotten any response yet. Must be a really painful subject for them, that they even don't want to talk about it. Haha.
Red flag for me.
Hope this helps someone.
Be blessed everyone.

FWIW. I received an email from PC just this morning. This is what I wrote back.
"Good morning. Can you do me a favor, please, and send a price list? I have over 1,000 vendors in my system and I need to make sure it's equitable for all of us. I take a discount from their invoices so, if you do as well, it probably won't work out. I need to make sure they're making what they need."
I don't know if they'll send a price list or not. If they do, I'll see if I can upload it here.

Thanks for posting. I'm not holding my breath for a price list directly from them.

·Half price, no thanks!
For those in the "preservation" industry, or those considering it, the pricing posted seems to be about half-price of what you should be making, as a business owner, if dealing directly with Freddie or Fannie.
If Preservation Cure can give you a ton of work, meaning more than one per day, and your overhead is low, it might not be a bad gig. But, be cautious!

·Absolutely! I don't have a clue if they actually PAY those prices. So you're right.
Does Preservation Cure ask you to pay to sign-up to be their vendor?
The LAMCO Network does, and it's like $500 to possibly get work orders. If Preservation Cure is asking a fee to sign up, I'd stay away!

we do work for Lamco without advertising-and when they call us and ask us to advertise I tell I just got off the phone with their accounting dept and if they could expedite the 7500 owed then we could talk.
they stopped calling me.
and we still get work from them.

·Not MCS
They do not get work from MCS, these guys are getting work from Citi bank and OCWEN. I just did a trash out and lock change, pay is pretty good compared to others. Hard to get in, guy I spoke to said they were getting massive amounts of applicants, but once I finally got my user name and password I started receiving work.JDRM said:

·What company can you find information on in the Preservation field, they are such a closed industry. As long as they don't charge its worth a shot to sign up, nothing to loose.LegacyMLLC said:
Here is what raised a flag about them getting mcs work, advertisement on their web page about free shipping from mfs supply for mcs vendors. With their name as user name. http://preservationcure.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=710723&fn=vendors
