EXHIBIT 10.18

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT    This agreement (the Agreement) is made and entered into as of February 19, 2008, by and between HouseValues, Inc. (HouseValues or we), a Washington
corporation, and Jacqueline L. Davidson (You), an individual.

Term of Employment and Compensation

As of the filing of the HouseValues Form 10-K for calendar year 2007, you will transition from your current role at HouseValues and will commence performing the usual
and customary work of a Chief Financial Officer, as well as any additional duties that the CEO/ Board of Directors may instruct you to perform. It is understood and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that you will provide services to
HouseValues on a full-time basis and that, specifically, you will not undertake any part-time or moonlighting employment or consultancy without the prior written consent of HouseValues.

Your salary will be $210,000 per year, paid twice monthly. Salary, bonus and equity compensation will be subject to all legally required withholding taxes.

Management Bonus Program

You are eligible to participate in the
annual management bonus program. The management bonus program is defined by the CEO and Board of Directors. There is no guaranteed payout under the management bonus program.

Your target bonus is 45%. In its discretion, the Board of Directors may choose to fund a bonus below that amount or above that amount depending on company and individual performance. The exact bonus payment will be
determined at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

Please note: The management bonus program is subject to change at any
time.

Benefits

You will be entitled, during
the term of your employment, to vacation, medical and other employee benefits (subject to applicable eligibility requirements) to the extent such benefits are offered by HouseValues to its other employees.

Option Compensation

HouseValues wishes to ensure that your energies
are wholly devoted to the long-term interests of HouseValues and its shareholders. Accordingly, subject to approval by the Board of Directors and the execution by you of a stock option Agreement, you will receive the option to purchase 75,000 shares
of HouseValues, Inc. common stock, pursuant to the terms of the HouseValues, Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan. The exercise price per share of the Option will be set at the fair market value per share of the Companys common stock on
the date of grant, as determined by the Board of Directors.

Confidential Information, Inventions, Nonsolicitation and Noncompetition Agreement

By entering into this Agreement, you are confirming the effectiveness and continuing obligations set forth in your previously executed Confidential
Information, Inventions, Nonsolicitation and Noncompetition Agreement. Please note that the Companys willingness to enter into this Agreement with you and to facilitate the equity compensation described above is based in significant part on
your commitment to fulfill the obligations specified in that agreement.

Employment at Will

Your employment with HouseValues will be at will, which means that either you or HouseValues may terminate your employment with HouseValues at any time, with or without cause. Any statements to the contrary that may have been
made to you, or that may be made to you, by the Company, its agents, or representatives are superseded by this Agreement. If you wish to terminate your employment, HouseValues requests that you provide written notice at least two weeks prior to the
effective date of your resignation.

Termination Payment

In the event of the termination of your employment, all compensation and benefits set forth above terminate except for the following:

If the
Company terminates your employment without Cause or if you terminate your employment for Good Reason, you shall be entitled to receive termination payments equal to (i) six months your annual base salary, and (ii) six months
COBRA premiums otherwise due from you, for yourself and eligible dependents, with respect to COBRA coverage offered by the Company, provided that you sign a separation agreement releasing any claims against the Company. If the Company terminates
your employment because of death or disability, you shall be entitled to receive six months COBRA premiums otherwise due from you, for yourself and eligible dependents, with respect to COBRA coverage offered by Company. If you are terminated
for Cause or if you terminate your employment other than for Good Reason, you shall not be entitled to receive any of the foregoing benefits. All payments under this paragraph shall be made to you at the same interval as payments of salary were made
to you immediately prior to termination.
