PART I

ITEM 1: BUSINESS

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain
forward-looking statements based on our expectations, estimates and projections as of the date of this filing. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements are only
predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These risks and other important factors are discussed under the heading Risk Factors in Item 1A below.

Company Background and Overview

HouseValues, Inc.
provides real estate professionals with the tools and services they need to manage and grow their real estate businesses. Our subscription software products include RealtyGenerator, a turnkey lead generation and lead management system for real
estate brokerage companies; and MarketLeader, a customer relationship management and lead management solution for real estate agents. We also provide real estate professionals with access to industry-leading media buying and lead generation services
to help them attract new clients and promote themselves throughout their community.

Additionally, HouseValues provides consumers with free
access to the information and tools they need throughout the home buying and selling process. Our consumer websites include: JustListed.com a service that notifies home buyers as soon as new homes hit the market; HouseValues.com, a service that
provides home sellers with market valuations of their current homes and HomePages.com, a real estate portal that enables consumers to see all the home listings in their area, view detailed neighborhood and school data, compare recent home sales,
find local real estate agents, and find the value of their own homes.

On November 1, 2007, we completed our acquisition of
substantially all of the assets of Realty Generator, LLC and a related entity for approximately $10.2 million in cash and assumed liabilities as well as incentives based on the future performance of the acquired entities through June 30, 2009.
Realty Generator provides services to real estate brokers, including a web site, a proprietary customer relationship management tool that enables communication with prospective customers, past clients and local real estate professionals, marketing
materials and dedicated training and account management support. The systems are integrated such that the leads generated from the web site traffic are distributed to the agent teams, allowing brokers to monitor agent follow-through.

In 2005, we launched and acquired new products targeted at mortgage professionals whom we believe have underlying business synergies with our real estate
customers. Since then, the continued deterioration of mortgage industry fundamentals and strong competition made this business especially challenging for new market entrants like HouseValues. As a result, we chose to eliminate operations that sold
directly to mortgage professionals as well as discontinue one of our primary mortgage products. We no longer offer the semi-exclusive leads product that was part of The Loan Page acquisition in late 2005. We continue to be primarily focused on
serving real estate agents.

HouseValues was incorporated in the State of Washington on May 28, 1999. After operating as a
privately-held business for several years, we completed our initial public offering in December 2004.

Services for
Consumers  Prospective Home Buyers and Sellers

We operate a network of real estate web sites that provide millions of
consumers with free access to the information and services that they seek throughout the home buying and selling process.



| |  |  | HouseValues® provides prospective home sellers with a
free estimate of their homes current market value and suggested listing price prepared by a local real estate professional that knows the current market conditions and specializes in the sellers community. HouseValues was launched in
1999.

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | JustListed® alerts prospective home buyers via email
to new home listings that match their specific criteria. This information is delivered by a local real estate professional that has access to the listings and specializes in that community. JustListed was launched in 2004.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | HomePages delivers free services to consumers in the home buying and selling process by combining home listings, and detailed neighborhood information
to provide a comprehensive view of each home and neighborhood. The site features homes for sale and displays detailed information on nearby schools, parks, shops and local services. HomePages also provides home owners with information on recently
sold homes in their neighborhood as well as the ability to get home value estimates from local experts.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Realty Generator delivers free services to consumers in the home buying and selling process by providing them access to a brokers web site that
contains home listings and other detailed neighborhood information regarding the specific area in which the consumer is interested. Traffic is generated on a broker customers website based on a mutually agreed monthly advertising spend by the
broker.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We use direct-response advertising, including television and Internet media, to drive prospective home buyers
and sellers to our real estate-oriented web sites. We regularly advertise on national television networks and major Internet search engines and other web sites, and supplement this advertising with local television advertising and other media to
help manage and geographically target consumer traffic and lead volume.

Services for Our Customers  Real Estate Professionals

We provide the majority of our real estate customers with a bundle of services that includes:



| |  |  | In the case of our real estate agent customers, leads generated from our network of real estate web sites in the specific local communities where our customers work
and in the case of our real estate broker customer web site traffic based on a mutually agreed upon monthly advertising spend by the broker.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Customer relationship management (CRM) tools and content designed to help our customers build relationships with
prospective home buyers and sellers over the Internet. Market Leader® is an online prospect management system that helps our real estate agent customers manage and cultivate leads. Realty
Generator is an online prospect management system that helps our real estate broker customers and their agents manage and cultivate leads. By automating many of the repetitive tasks that are required to follow up and communicate with potential
clients, our CRM tools allow customers to focus on transacting their current business while efficiently marketing their services to potential clients to maintain a pipeline of future business opportunities. In addition to the content and activity
management features provided by many CRM tools, our CRM tools also include proprietary real estate content and consumer email campaigns. By directing our content and campaigns to their consumer prospects, our customers position themselves as
highly-engaged, technically-savvy neighborhood experts.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Community and training services that enable our customers to share and learn best practices to help them close more business with Internet consumers. Our customers
are invited to participate in company-hosted in-market training seminars, and have access to group coaching calls and peer-to-peer best practices training conference calls.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We generally provide this bundle of services for a monthly fixed fee pursuant to contracts, most of which have an initial term of one year, continuing on
a month-to-month basis until terminated.

We believe that successful real estate professionals typically have systems and processes in
place to capture and develop leads, or prospects, to maintain and expand their businesses. In addition, we believe that the value of the web site traffic and leads generated for our customers through our network of web sites is enhanced when
combined with our integrated offering that helps our customers convert these leads into closed transactions.

##### Table of Contents

We continuously monitor, improve and refine our service offering, based on quantitative and qualitative
feedback from our customers.

Sales and Marketing

We use a variety of marketing methods to build awareness of our product offerings and to attract new customers to our services. These methods include primarily direct marketing, advertising, and public relations
efforts, as well as customer referral programs and trade shows. We reach new customers primarily through telesales employees at our Kirkland, Washington facility and in some cases, from field-based personnel. Sales staff comprises approximately 45%
of our total sales and marketing employees.

Competition

We believe the principal competitive factors affecting our markets are product selection and quality; price; customer service and support; brand recognition; and reputation, reliability and trust. We believe that we
compete effectively in these areas.

We also believe that the size and geographic breadth of our customer base creates efficiencies in
consumer lead generation, web site traffic and distribution of traffic and leads that may not be available to competitors that lack our scale and nationwide distribution. Finally, we believe that success in our business requires a competency in
small business sales and service that we have developed. We believe the challenges we encountered building our customer base while expanding to nationwide presence will be encountered by other entrants as they seek to establish and grow competitive
offerings.

Our current competitors include:

Traditional Sellers of Advertising to Real Estate Professionals. We compete with traditional sellers of advertising, including local and regional newspapers, local magazines, and rack publications
advertising homes for sale, for a share of the marketing dollars that residential real estate agents and brokers spend to attract prospective home buyers and sellers.

Internet Media Companies. We compete with large Internet media companies, such as AOL, Google, MSN, and Yahoo! for residential real estate professionals marketing dollars.

Online Companies Focused on Residential Real Estate. We compete with a variety of online marketing and lead generation companies that focus
exclusively on the real estate industry. Such companies include Homes.com and Trader Publishing, Classified Ventures and HomeGain, RealEstateABC of InternetBrands, Reply.com, Zillow, Realtor.com, HomeStore and Move.com, and IAC/InterActiveCorp,
which includes Domania.com, ServiceMagic and RealEstate.com, all of which have established web sites and compete or may compete for real estate professionals advertising expenditures. In addition, several entities present an automated value
model home estimator or homes for sale listings based on publicly available information, including newer entrants to the market, Trulia and Zillow.

Real Estate Brokerage Firms. Some real estate brokerage firms currently offer services similar to ours, and in the future these firms or other brokerage/franchise firms may become direct competitors. A significant percentage of
residential real estate agents are affiliated with large national or regional brokerage firms.

Our ability to continue to compete
favorably is subject to a number of factors identified in Item 1A  Risk Factors of this report.

##### Table of Contents

Technology and Infrastructure

We have built and acquired proprietary, feature-rich systems to interact with consumers, provide our suite of services to real estate professionals and manage our business.

RealtyGenerator.com. The web sites that we create on behalf of our real estate broker customers enable consumers to research home listings and
comprehensive neighborhood information online. We have built systems to deliver web site traffic to our broker customers. Other services include a customer relationship management tool, marketing materials, training and support.

HouseValues.com and JustListed.com. These web sites, in combination with our lead management system, interact with thousands of Internet-enabled
consumers every day and automatically distribute leads from prospective home buyers and sellers to agent customers. We have built tracking and testing systems into HouseValues.com and JustListed.com so that we can monitor visitor conversion metrics.

HomePages.com. This web site enables consumers to research home listings and comprehensive neighborhood information online. We have
built systems to deliver advertising impressions and featured homes listings to consumers on behalf of agents subscribing to our HomePages Showcase marketing package.

MarketLeader. This product is an online prospect management system through which we distribute leads from prospective home buyers and sellers to agent customers and that helps our customers manage and cultivate
those leads.

Lead Management System. Our lead management system is a geography-targeted, business-rule driven system that manages
and distributes leads from our HouseValues and JustListed web sites to our agent customers and web site traffic to our broker customers. This system allows us to monitor lead inventory to our agent customers and aids in the optimization of our
advertising spending.

Our systems are hosted in co-location facilities in Kent, Washington and Englewood, Colorado. We have secure and
fully redundant systems and our software and databases are backed up daily and stored at an offsite location.

Intellectual Property

To protect our proprietary rights, we rely on a combination of trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, and confidentiality agreements with our
employees and consultants, and confidentiality provisions in our vendor and client agreements. We currently have eleven trademarks registered in the United States and Canada and applications for additional marks are pending in the United States and
Canada for our product names and certain words and phrases that we use in our business. We also rely on copyright laws to protect computer programs relating to our web sites and our proprietary technologies although to date we have not registered
for copyright protection. We currently have four applications for patents pending. We have also registered numerous Internet domain names related to our business in order to protect our proprietary interests.

See Item 1A  Risk Factors of this report for factors that may impact our intellectual property.

Government Regulation

Our business is subject to
various laws and regulations relating to Internet commerce and telemarketing, as well as federal and state laws and regulations relating to real estate and mortgage matters.

Regulation Relating to Internet Commerce. Several jurisdictions have recently proposed or adopted privacy-related laws that restrict or prohibit
unsolicited email solicitations, commonly known as spam, that impose complex and often burdensome requirements in connection with sending commercial email.

Telemarketing Laws. Both federal and state laws regulate the practice of telemarketing. Most
jurisdictions have implemented do not call lists. In addition, a number of states require telemarketers to register with the state and post a bond, prohibit automated systems and recorded messages, impose disclosure requirements upon
sales calls, and require written sales contracts for certain telemarketing transactions.

State Real Estate Regulation. Real estate
licensing laws vary from state to state, but generally require corporations engaged in the real estate brokerage business to obtain a corporate real estate brokers license. We currently hold a corporate real estate brokers license in the
State of Washington and various other states and intend to obtain licenses in other states that we determine are necessary for our business.

We believe that our operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material aspects.

See Item 1A
 Risk Factors of this report for risks associated with government regulation of our business.

Seasonality

See Item 7  Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the heading The Impact of
Seasonality and Cyclicality, which is incorporated herein by reference, for a discussion of the extent to which our business is seasonal.

Employees

As of December 31, 2007, we had 226 employees located at our corporate headquarters in Kirkland, Washington.
In January 2008, we implemented a staffing reduction that reduced headcount by approximately 45 employees.

None of our employees are
covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have never experienced employment-related work stoppages and consider our employee relations to be good.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following factors that may affect our business, future
operating results and financial condition, as well as other information included in this Annual Report. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that
we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Our operating results are subject to fluctuations that may cause our stock price to decline.

We have reported net losses for the past two years. Our operating results have fluctuated in the past and are likely to continue to do so in the future.
Our revenues are unpredictable and may fluctuate from quarter to quarter

due to changes in rates of customer acquisition and retention, the cyclical nature of the real estate industry, and other factors outside of our control. In
addition, our expenses and revenues may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to, among other factors, the timing of sales and marketing campaigns. In 2006 and 2007, we recorded significant impairment charges that increased our reported net losses
due in part to the decline in our business and our lower market capitalization.

We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our past
operating results may not be good indicators of our future performance and should not be relied on to predict the future performance of our stock price.

It is possible that in the future our operating results will not meet the expectations of investors, causing the market price of our common stock to decline. In the past, companies that have experienced decreases in
the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. A securities class action lawsuit against us could result in substantial costs and divert our managements attention from other business concerns.

Our business depends on the real estate industry, which is cyclical.

The residential real estate market historically has been subject to economic cycles. An economic slowdown or recession, adverse tax policies, lower
availability of credit, increased interest rates, or other factors that impact consumer confidence could decrease demand for residential real estate. For example, our revenues have declined over the past few quarters due in part to the recent
downturn in the real estate industry in many markets. Trends in the real estate industry are unpredictable; therefore, our operating results, to the extent they reflect changes in the broader real estate industry, may continue to be subject to
significant fluctuations.

We may be unable to compete successfully with our current or future competitors.

We operate in a highly competitive environment and expect that competition will continue to be intense. The barriers to entry in our industry are low,
making it possible for current or new competitors to adopt certain aspects of our business model without great financial expense, thereby reducing our ability to differentiate our services. All of our services, including online lead generation,
online prospect management, online real estate portal content and advertising, and customer coaching and training, are provided in part or in combination by other companies, and it is possible that one or more of these companies, or a new market
entrant, could adopt a business model that competes directly with us.

Our current and potential competitors include:

Traditional Sellers of Advertising to Real Estate Professionals. We compete with traditional sellers of advertising, including local and regional
newspapers, local magazines, and rack publications advertising homes for sale, for a share of the marketing dollars that residential real estate professionals spend to attract prospective home buyers and sellers. Real estate
professionals may continue to view traditional advertising sources as the most effective means to reach prospective home buyers and sellers, leading to a lack of demand for our services. If we fail to persuade these customers to spend marketing
dollars on our services, our business and operating results will suffer.

Internet Media Companies. We compete with large Internet
media companies, such as AOL, Google, MSN and Yahoo! for real estate professionals marketing dollars. Some of the large Internet media companies are currently developing enhanced search products, including search products that would allow a
user to find real estate related search results in a specific city or geographic area. If their existing or new products become a cost-effective way for real estate professionals to generate leads, these products may become an attractive alternative
to our services, which could decrease demand for our services or increase our online lead generation costs. Additionally, these companies, on which we rely in part for our own advertising and lead generation needs, may develop or acquire products
and services that compete directly with our services.

##### Table of Contents

Online Companies Focused on Residential Real Estate. We compete with a variety of online marketing
and lead generation companies that focus exclusively on the real estate industry. Such companies include Homes.com and Trader Publishing, Classified Ventures and HomeGain, RealEstateABC of InternetBrands, Reply.com, Zillow, Realtor.com, HomeStore
and Move.com and IAC/InterActiveCorp, which includes Domania.com, ServiceMagic and RealEstate.com, all of which have established web sites and compete or may compete for real estate professionals advertising expenditures. In addition,
consolidation driven by online service providers involved in the real estate industry and Internet media companies could create more potent competitors. Increased consolidation among online service providers in the residential real estate industry
could result in additional competitors that have significantly greater resources or greater brand recognition than we do, and that are able to provide a broader and more attractive suite of services to real estate professionals than we can.

Real Estate Brokerage Firms. Some real estate brokerage firms currently offer services similar to ours, and in the future these
firms and other brokerage/franchise firms may become direct competitors. A significant percentage of residential real estate professionals are affiliated with large national or regional brokerage firms. If brokerage firms decide to provide their
agents with a service offering or suite of service offerings similar to ours at a lower cost or free of charge, or if they attempt to restrict the ability of their agents to use our services, demand for our services by real estate professionals
could decrease.

Many of our existing and potential competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, greater
technological capabilities and greater financial, sales, marketing and human resources than we do. These competitors could:



| |  |  | develop services that are as effective as or superior to our services or that achieve greater market acceptance than do our services;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | devote greater resources to marketing or selling their services;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | withstand price competition more successfully than we can;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make more attractive offers to existing and potential employees or independent contractors than we do;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | more effectively negotiate third-party arrangements; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | take advantage of investments, acquisitions or other opportunities more readily than we can.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any efforts to expand into new lines of business may not be successful, or may take longer than expected to complete.

New initiatives we may pursue may not be successful or the anticipated benefits may take longer to realize than expected. Also, we may have little or no
experience in these areas which may result in errors in the conception, structure or implementation of a strategy to take advantage of available opportunities. For example, we launched and acquired products targeted at mortgage professionals in
2005. Due to deteriorating market conditions, operational challenges, and increasing competition in this market, we did not meet our financial objectives and decided to discontinue or stop selling these products in January 2007.

In November 2007, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Realty Generator LLC and its affiliate. Realty Generator provides services to real
estate brokers, including a web site, a proprietary customer relationship management tool that enables communication with prospective customers, past clients and local real estate professionals, marketing materials and dedicated training and account
management support. The systems are integrated such that the leads generated from the web site traffic are distributed to the agent teams, allowing brokers to monitor agent follow-through. We cannot assure you that the Realty Generator acquisition
or any new products or other expansion efforts will be successful.

Any failure to increase the number of our customers would harm our business.

Growth of our business depends in large part on increasing the number of our customers. However, prospective customers may not be familiar with our
services and may be accustomed to using traditional methods of advertising and marketing. To attract more customers, we must convince real estate professionals to spend a portion of their advertising and marketing budgets on our services. We cannot
assure you that we will be successful in continuing to acquire customers or that we will be able to acquire them at the same rate that we have historically. If we reach the point at which we have attempted to sell our services to the majority of
residential real estate professionals, our ability to further increase the number of customers could be limited. We may not know or be able to estimate when we have reached this point because we currently cannot reliably estimate the total number of
residential real estate professionals that are actively engaged in the industry during any particular period and recent media reports indicate that the total number of real estate professionals are expected to decline because of recent negative
trends in the real estate industry.

Any failure to retain customers could harm our business.

Our ability to retain our customers will depend on our ability to generate web site traffic and leads from prospective home buyers and sellers in
quantities demanded by our customers, to enhance our existing services, develop new technologies that address the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of customers, respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and
practices in a timely manner and on a cost effective basis. If we do not deliver the web site traffic or quantity and quality of leads expected by our customers, maintain adequate technical support levels, or continue to improve the ease of use,
functionality and features of our prospect management systems, customer coaching and training offerings, or if customers are dissatisfied with the quality of the leads that we provide, our customers may choose not to extend their contracts for our
services or may choose to terminate their contracts.

Real estate professionals remain customers typically only for a limited period of time, and we
have limited ability to predict how long they will remain customers.

The majority of our customer contracts have an initial term of
twelve months, with automatic one-month extensions unless terminated by either party. Some customers have decided not to extend their contracts due to their inability to convert the leads we have provided into closed transactions, due to their
dissatisfaction with our services, or their inability to pay for our services.

We cannot accurately predict how long real estate
professionals will remain customers. We have experienced a decreased rate of customer retention during 2006 and 2007, and if our retention rate continues to decline, our revenue will further decline and our business will suffer.

Acquisitions we may undertake may be unsuccessful and may divert our managements attention and consume significant resources.

We may selectively acquire other businesses, product lines or technologies. The successful execution of an acquisition strategy will depend on our ability
to identify, negotiate, complete and integrate suitable acquisitions and, if necessary, to obtain satisfactory debt or equity financing. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:



| |  |  | difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, and products of the acquired companies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversion of managements attention from normal daily operations of the business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | inability to maintain the key business relationships and the reputations of acquired businesses;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | entry into markets in which we have limited or no prior experience and in which competitors have stronger market positions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | dependence on unfamiliar affiliates and partners;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | insufficient revenues to offset increased expenses associated with acquisitions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | reduction or replacement of the sales of existing services by sales of products or services from acquired lines of business;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | responsibility for the liabilities of acquired businesses;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | inability to maintain our internal standards, controls, procedures and policies; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential loss of key employees of the acquired companies.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------

Acquisitions may not be successful, and if we are unable to effectively manage the risks described above or other risks we encounter, our business, operating results or financial condition may be negatively affected.
For example, we acquired The Loan Page in October 2005 as part of our strategic objective to capitalize on the synergies between real estate and mortgage professionals. Due to deteriorating market conditions, operational challenges, and increasing
competition in this market, we did not meet our financial objectives and decided in January 2007 to discontinue the semi-exclusive lead product we obtained as part of that acquisition. Our revenues were lower in 2007 due in part to this decision,
and we recorded a significant impairment loss in 2006 related to that acquisition.

Mergers and acquisitions are inherently risky, and we
cannot assure you that our acquisitions will be successful. Failure to manage and successfully integrate acquired businesses could harm our business.

We rely almost entirely on advertising to generate leads for customers.

We rely heavily on advertising to attract
consumers to our web sites and to generate traffic and leads. We advertise primarily through online media and television commercials.

Business Risks Associated with Online Advertising. We rely on online media to attract a significant percentage of the consumers visiting our web sites. Prices for online advertising have increased as a result of increased demand for
advertising inventory, which has caused our expenses to increase and has resulted in lower margins. Our advertising contracts with online search engines are typically short-term. If one or more search engines on which we rely for advertising
modifies or terminates its relationship with us, our expenses could further increase, the number of leads we generate could decrease and our revenues or margins could decline.

Business Risks Associated with Television Advertising. Television advertising rates depend on a number of factors, including the strength of the
national economy and regional economies and the strength of certain industries that advertise frequently. Advertising rates are also subject to cyclical and seasonal fluctuations. If television advertising prices increase significantly or if the
effectiveness of this advertising declines, in the absence of more efficient ways to generate leads, our marketing expenses will also increase, which would harm our results of operations.

If we are required to drive additional traffic for an increasing customer base or if the number of leads that we are required to deliver increases, we
may be required to increase the levels of advertising to meet those requirements. Increasing our advertising expenditures may not result in increases in traffic or leads. If the effectiveness of our advertising declines, our business will suffer.

We may invest our cash in securities that become illiquid or that significantly decrease in value.

We may invest our cash in securities that are affected by adverse market conditions. Current market conditions and lack of investor confidence have led to
reduced liquidity in securities that had previously been viewed as more liquid. We have historically invested in auction rate securities, which is a security that in certain instances, investors have not supported. As a result, our investments may
decline in value, or we may not be able to access our cash when needed for strategic investment purposes or for operations and capital expenditures. Loss of cash value and inability to access funds would harm our business.

We may in the future be subject to intellectual property rights claims.

Other companies, including our current or potential competitors, could make claims against us alleging infringement of their intellectual property rights.
We have been subject to and expect to continue to be subject to, claims regarding alleged infringement by us of the patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights of third parties. Any intellectual property claims, regardless of merit,
could be time-consuming and expensive to litigate or settle, and could significantly divert managements attention from other business concerns. We may need to obtain licenses from third parties who allege that we have infringed their rights,
but such licenses may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Our technologies and content may not be able to withstand
third-party claims or rights against their use. If we were unable to successfully defend against such claims, we may have to pay damages, stop using the technology or content found to be in violation of a third partys rights, seek a license
for the infringing technology or content, or develop alternative non-infringing technology or content. If we are required to obtain a license for the infringing technology or content, it may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all. In
addition, developing alternative non-infringing technology or content could require significant effort and expense. If we cannot license or develop technology or content for any infringing aspects of our business, we may be forced to limit our
service offerings. Any of these results could reduce our ability to compete effectively and harm our business.

Our trademarks are
important to our business. Other companies may own, obtain or claim trademarks that could prevent, limit or interfere with our use of trademarks. If we were unable to use these trademarks, our business would be harmed and we would need to devote
substantial resources toward developing different brand identities.

We have a limited operating history, our business model is evolving and our
future operating results are unpredictable.

We were formed in May 1999 and have a limited history upon which to evaluate our
operations and future prospects. There is little significant historical basis to assess how we will adapt our business model to competitive, economic or technological challenges. Our business and prospects must be considered in light of the risks
and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the earlier stages of development.

The success of our business model depends on
our ability to attract new and retain existing customers and to efficiently generate traffic and leads from consumers visiting our web sites. Any failure to execute this strategy could harm our business. Our business model is relatively new and is
still evolving.

We may have to increase our expenses as we seek to expand our business. We cannot assure you that our strategies to return
to growth will be successful or that we will return to profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

Prospective home buyers and sellers may be
reluctant to sign up for our services due to general privacy concerns.

Concern among consumers regarding our use of personal
information collected on our web sites, such as email addresses, home addresses and geographic preferences, could keep them from using our web sites and thereby reduce the number of leads we generate. Industry-wide events or events with respect to
our web sites, including misappropriation of third-party information, security breaches, or changes in industry standards, regulations or laws could deter people from using the Internet or our web sites to conduct transactions that involve the
transmission of confidential information, which could harm our business.

We rely on the collection, use and disclosure of personally
identifiable information from prospective home buyers and sellers and from customers to conduct our business. We disclose our information collection and



12

##### Table of Contents

dissemination practices in a published privacy statement on our web sites, which we may modify from time to time to meet operational needs or changes in the
law or industry best practices. We may be subject to legal claims, government action and damage to our reputation if we act or are perceived to be acting inconsistently with the terms of our privacy statement, customer expectations or the law. In
addition, concern among real estate professionals or potential home buyers or sellers about our privacy practices could keep them from using our services and require us to alter our business practices or incur significant expenses to educate them
about how we use this information. Further, changes in laws and regulations applicable to the privacy of personal information or in the interpretation or enforcement of such laws or regulations, could require us to modify our practices regarding
use, collection, protection and disclosure of such information. Any required modifications could result in significant expenses to us.

The value of
our services could be diminished if anti-spam software filters out emails we send.

Our prospect management systems includes a
feature that automatically sends out personalized email messages to prospective home buyers and sellers on behalf of real estate professionals who are our customers. In addition, we send a large amount of email to real estate professionals as part
of our customer acquisition strategy, some of which is unsolicited. In the past, anti-spam software used by Internet service providers and personal computer users has filtered out these email messages as unsolicited email, or spam. If
this problem persists or becomes more pervasive, the value of our prospect management system to customers, and our ability to attract new customers, could be reduced, both of which would harm our business. In addition, it is possible that we may not
currently or in the future fully comply with anti-spam legislation, and any failure to comply with such laws could result in penalties or damage our reputation.

Our HomePages, JustListed and RealtyGenerator products rely on information from real estate multiple listing services provided by third parties that we do not control.

Our HomePages website and the websites we provide to our RealtyGenerator broker customers combine aerial maps and for sale home listings, including
listings in most of the major metropolitan markets in the United States. In addition, in selected markets, including most of the major metropolitan markets in the United States, we provide JustListed and RealtyGenerator customers with a feature that
allows them to automatically email their prospective clients information about newly available homes that meet the prospective clients criteria. The for sale home listings information provided by our websites and the automated email feature of
services are supplied only in markets in which we or our broker customers have a relationship with the local multiple listing service (MLS), and in some cases, additionally with the agents real estate broker. Listings must be sent manually by
an agent customer in markets in which we do not have MLS relationships. Our agreements with MLSs to display property listings have short terms, or can be terminated by the MLSs, or, in some cases, the broker, with little notice. The success of our
HomePages website depends substantially on our continued ability to provide for sale home listings to consumers and to expand listings in markets in which it is not currently available. Our JustListed service depends in part on our continued ability
to provide customers with an automated listing email tool and our ability to expand listings in markets in which it is not currently available. Our RealtyGenerator service depends on our ability to leverage our broker customers access to MLS
data. Our inability to supply this information will harm our business and operating results.

If we fail to comply with the various laws and
regulations that govern the real estate industry, our business may be harmed.

Our business is governed by various federal, state
and local laws and regulations governing the real estate industry, including the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), the Fair Housing Act, state and local real estate broker licensing laws, federal and state laws prohibiting unfair and
deceptive acts and practices, and federal and state advertising laws. We may not have always been and may not always be in compliance with each of these requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in, among other things,
revocation of required licenses, indemnification liability to contract counterparties, class action lawsuits, administrative enforcement actions and civil and criminal liability.

Due to the geographic scope of our operations and the nature of the services we provide, we may be
required to obtain and maintain real estate brokerage licenses in certain states in which we operate. In connection with such licenses, we are required to designate individual licensed brokers of record. We cannot assure you that we are, and will
remain at all times, in full compliance with state real estate licensing laws and regulations and we may be subject to fines or penalties in the event of any non-compliance. If in the future a state agency were to determine that we are required to
obtain a real estate brokerage license in that state in order to receive payments or commissions from real estate professionals, or if we lose the services of a designated broker, we may be subject to fines or legal penalties or our business
operations in that state may be suspended until we obtain the license or replace the designated broker. Any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may limit our ability to expand into new markets, offer new products or continue to
operate in one or more of our current markets.

We may be limited in the way in which we market our business or generate revenue by federal law
prohibiting referral fees in real estate or mortgage transactions.

RESPA generally prohibits the payment or receipt of fees or any
other thing of value for the referral of business related to a residential real estate settlement service, including real estate and mortgage brokerage services. RESPA also prohibits fee shares or splits or unearned fees in connection with the
provision of residential real estate settlement services. Notwithstanding these prohibitions, RESPA expressly permits payments pursuant to cooperative brokerage and referral arrangements or agreements between real estate agents and brokers. In
addition, RESPA permits payments for goods or facilities furnished or for services actually performed, so long as those payments bear a reasonable relationship to the market value of the goods or facilities furnished or the services performed,
excluding the value of any referrals that may be provided in connection with such goods, facilities or services. Failure to comply with RESPA may result in, among other things, administrative enforcement actions, class action lawsuits, and civil and
criminal liability.

There has been limited guidance by the appropriate federal regulator or the courts regarding the applicability of
RESPA to online marketing relationships for real estate or mortgage services, including those we provide. Nonetheless, RESPA may restrict our ability to enter into marketing and distribution arrangements with third parties, particularly to the
extent that such arrangements may be characterized as involving payments for the referral of residential real estate settlement service business.

We
rely on our sales force to sell our services and increase revenue. Failure to attract, motivate and retain qualified sales personnel may harm our business.

We have high productivity standards for our sales personnel, which in the past has resulted in relatively high turnover. This turnover has required us to expend a substantial amount of time and money to replace sales
persons as we expand our business. Competition for qualified sales personnel is intense. Any failure to attract, retain and motivate a sufficient number of qualified sales personnel could impair our ability to generate new customers, which would
harm our business.

Our business could be harmed by the actions of third parties over whom we have little or no control.

Prospective home buyers and sellers could make a claim against us for the actions of a real estate agent or broker customer over whom we have little or no
control. We do not conduct any due diligence or background checks on new customers or seek information regarding their credentials. We may be liable for content provided by customers that is posted on or disseminated through our web sites. Our
insurance may not be adequate to cover us for these liabilities, and, to the extent not covered by insurance, these liabilities could reduce our margins and harm our business.

Our brand could be harmed if customers do not provide quality service to prospective home buyers and sellers.

We rely on real estate professionals who are our customers to promote our brand by providing high-quality service to prospective
home buyers and sellers. We have little control over the activities of customers. If customers do not provide prospective home buyers and sellers with high-quality service, or if they use the functionality of our Market Leader system to send
unwanted email to prospective home buyers or sellers, our brand value and our ability to generate leads may diminish.

Our operating results may be
subject to seasonality and may vary significantly among quarters during a calendar year.

We are subject to seasonal fluctuations in
advertising rates and lead generation. Changing consumer behavior at various times throughout the year affects our advertising expenses. Television advertising is generally more expensive in the fourth calendar quarter in connection with the holiday
season.

While individual markets vary, real estate transaction activity tends to progressively increase from January through the summer
months, and then gradually slows over the last quarter of the calendar year. The real estate industry generally experiences decreased activity toward the end of the year, which may result in slower lead generation and lower growth rates.

Throughout the history of our company, our quarterly revenue changes have masked seasonality effects. As a result, investors may be unable to predict
our annual operating results based on a quarter-to-quarter comparison of our operating results as our business matures.

Third parties may copy or
otherwise obtain and use our proprietary information without authorization or develop similar technology independently.

We
currently rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and confidentiality procedures to establish and protect our proprietary rights. If we fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, the value of our
services could be diminished and our business may suffer. Our success depends in large part on our proprietary technology and on our continuing use of our trademarks. We hold eleven registered trademarks and have sought registration for a number of
additional trademarks. We have not sought registration for any copyrights. We have not been issued any patents but we have four pending patent applications. Accordingly, our intellectual property position is more vulnerable than it otherwise would
be if it were protected by issued patents, copyrights or additional registered trademarks. We may not receive approval of our various trademark or patent applications, and any trademarks or patents we may be granted may be successfully challenged by
others or invalidated. If our trademark or patent applications are not approved or if our trademarks or patents are invalidated, our use of them could be restricted unless we enter into arrangements with these third parties, which might not be
possible on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

We regard substantial elements of our web sites, software tools and applications and
underlying technology as proprietary. Despite our precautionary measures, third parties may copy or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary information without authorization or may develop similar technology independently. We may not be able to
detect such infringements or may lose any competitive advantage in the market before we do so. In addition, competitors may design around our technology or develop competing technologies substantially similar to ours. Unauthorized parties may
attempt to disclose, obtain or use our technology. Our precautions may not prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property, particularly in foreign countries where laws or law enforcement practices may not protect our proprietary rights as
fully as in the United States. Any legal action that we may bring to protect our proprietary information could be unsuccessful and expensive and could divert managements attention from other business concerns. Legal standards relating to the
validity, enforceability and scope of protection of proprietary rights in Internet-related businesses are uncertain and evolving, and we cannot assure you of the future viability or value of any of our proprietary rights.

Increased government regulation of the Internet and claims under state consumer protection laws could force us to
change the manner in which we conduct our business or result in monetary fines or increased costs.

The adoption or modification of
laws or regulations relating to the Internet could adversely affect the manner in which we currently conduct our business. In addition, the growth and development of the market for online commerce may lead to more stringent consumer protection laws
that may impose additional burdens on us. Laws and regulations relating to communications or commerce over the Internet are becoming more prevalent. In addition, the interpretation and application of laws applicable to the Internet remain largely
unsettled, even in areas where there has been some legislative action. It may take years to determine whether and how existing laws, such as those governing intellectual property, privacy, libel and taxation, apply to the Internet. New laws and
regulations, and changes in the interpretation of existing laws and regulations relating to the Internet, could lead to situations in which we are considered to operate or do business in states where customers conduct their
business, resulting in potential claims or regulatory action. If we are required to comply with new laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations, or if we are unable to comply with these laws or regulations, our
business could be harmed. Our practices may not have always been and may not always be in compliance with the requirements of Internet-related laws or regulations. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in administrative
enforcement actions, class action lawsuits, and civil and criminal liability.

We may be subject to claims under state consumer protection
statutes if our customers are dissatisfied with the quality of our leads, customer service, training programs or contract cancellation policies. These claims could result in monetary fines or require us to change the manner in which we conduct our
business, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Any of these types of claims, regardless of merit, could be time-consuming, could harm our reputation and could be expensive to litigate or
settle. For example, in November 2007 we entered into a consent decree with the Washington State Attorney Generals office and agreed to pay $51,000 in costs and attorneys fees and to modify certain of our business practices and
procedures.

Changes in government regulation of advertising and customer solicitation could affect our business.

We rely on various marketing channels, such as email and other means of electronic and telephonic communication, to reach real estate professionals and
prospective home buyers and sellers consumers. The laws governing marketing and advertising continue to evolve and we may be subject to restrictions that limit our ability to continue to operate or expand our business and result in legal claims or
government action. For example, a federal statute places restrictions on unsolicited commercial email, commonly known as spam, and imposes obligations upon senders of commercial email. Additionally, state laws governing falsity or
deception with regard to email apply in addition to the federal statute. These federal and state laws impose significant civil and criminal penalties for violations. As the interpretation and enforcement of these laws evolve, they may impose burdens
on our email marketing practices and affect features of our Market Leader system and other services we offer or may offer. In addition, federal and state statutes prohibiting false or deceptive acts in commerce apply to Internet advertising, and
some states have passed legislation regulating Internet advertising. The requirements of some of these laws, and their interpretation and enforcement by governmental authorities, are not clear and uniform. These laws may adversely affect our ability
to market our services to real estate industry participants in a cost-effective manner and the violation of these laws may result in enforcement actions and penalties or damage our reputation.

Our sales activities are or may in the future be subject to laws regulating telemarketing, which could subject us to penalties or limit our ability to market our
services.

Both federal and state laws regulate the practice of telemarketing and placing other commercial telephone calls. All 50
states have enacted some form of telemarketing law, and federal statutes and regulations place restrictions on live, recorded and text telemarketing calls. In particular, the federal government and a significant



16

##### Table of Contents

number of states have implemented do not call lists. In addition, a number of states require telemarketers to register with the state and post a
bond, regulate or prohibit automated systems and recorded messages, impose disclosure requirements upon sales calls and require written sales contracts for certain telemarketing transactions. We are subject to certain of these laws, and our failure
to register in a jurisdiction where we are required to do so could subject us to penalties, limit our ability to market our services and hamper our ability to enforce contracts in these jurisdictions. Other violations of these laws may damage our
reputation and may result in administrative enforcement, fines and civil or criminal penalties.

Any failure of our technology to perform
satisfactorily could result in lost revenue, damage to our reputation and expenditure of significant resources.

Our technology is
relatively new and complex and may in the future be subject to errors, defects or performance problems. In addition, we may encounter problems when we update our technology to expand and enhance its capabilities. Our technology may malfunction or
suffer from defects that become apparent only after further use. Furthermore, our services could be rendered unreliable or be perceived as unreliable by customers or prospective home buyers and sellers. In such instances, we would need to expend
significant resources to address these problems, and may nonetheless be unable to adequately remedy these problems. These problems could result in lost revenue and damage to our reputation.

Sustained or repeated system failures could significantly impair our operations and lead to customer dissatisfaction.

The continuous and uninterrupted performance of our systems is critical to our success. Our operations depend on our ability to protect these systems
against damage from fire, power loss, water, earthquakes, telecommunications failures, viruses, vandalism and other malicious acts and similar unexpected adverse events. Customers and prospective home buyers and sellers may become dissatisfied by
any system failure that interrupts our ability to provide our services to them.

Our services substantially depend on systems provided by
third parties, over whom we have little control. Interruptions in our services could result from the failure of telecommunications providers and other third parties to provide the necessary data communications capacity in the time frame required.
Our operations depend on our ability to maintain and protect our computer systems, located at our headquarters in Kirkland, Washington and at co-location facilities operated by third parties. We depend on these third-party providers of Internet
communication services to provide continuous and uninterrupted service. We also depend on Internet service providers that provide access to our services. Any disruption in the Internet access provided by third-party providers or any failure of
third-party providers to handle higher volumes of user traffic could harm our business.

Our customers, our reputation and our products may be harmed
by security breaches.

Unauthorized computer programmers, or hackers, may attempt to penetrate our network security from time to
time. A hacker who penetrates our network security could misappropriate personal information about our customers, proprietary information or cause interruptions in our services. We might be required to expend significant capital and resources to
protect against, or to alleviate, problems caused by hackers. We also may not have a timely remedy against a hacker who is able to penetrate our network security. In addition to purposeful security breaches, the inadvertent transmission of computer
viruses could adversely affect our systems and harm our business.

Several payment card brands and an independent standards body have
adopted security standards, compliance with which is required of all merchants and service providers that process, transmit or store certain types of personal information pertaining to credit card holders. If HouseValues fails to comply with
these standards, it could be subject to fines and its ability to accept some or all credit cards could be restricted or suspended. Any such suspension or restriction would significantly affect our ability to collect fees from our customers,
many of whom pay with a credit card. This would result in harm to our business.

Additionally, the majority of states and various federal regulatory bodies now require companies that
maintain personal information about consumers to notify those consumers in the event of a breach of security in which certain types of personal information relating to those consumers is, or is suspected to have been, obtained by an unauthorized
person. These laws vary in their scope and requirements, and some of them also require notice to governmental agencies and other third parties. In addition, other public disclosure laws may require that material security breaches be
reported. If we are required to disclose a security breach to consumers or other third parties, our business and reputation could be harmed.

If
we do not have access to additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue to expand our business or service offerings.

To pursue our current and future business plans, we may choose to seek additional funding through public or private financings, including equity financings, and through other arrangements. Poor financial results, unanticipated expenses or
unanticipated opportunities that require financial commitments could give rise to additional financing requirements sooner than we expect. However, financing may be unavailable when we need it or may not be available on acceptable terms. If we raise
additional funds by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our existing shareholders would be reduced and these securities might have rights superior to those of our common stock. If we are unable to raise
additional funds when we need them, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate expenditures for some of our operations or capital expenditures.

ITEM 1B: UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None

ITEM 2: PROPERTIES

We lease approximately 65,000 square feet of office space for our corporate
headquarters in Kirkland, Washington. The lease commenced in December 2004 and has a six-year term with defined periodic escalations. This initial lease term expires in 2010 with an option for a five-year renewal.

On July 31, 2007, we ceased operations in our 36,000 square foot Yakima, Washington facility and subsequently terminated the lease on
January 7, 2008. We did not pay a fee to terminate the lease. In a related transaction, we assigned our purchase option for the facility and transferred all remaining assets (primarily leasehold improvements and furnishings) in the facility to
a third party for a fee of $1.4 million.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation relating to claims
arising from the ordinary course of our business, including actions relating to employment issues. We believe that there are no claims or actions pending or threatened against us, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse
effect on us.

ITEM 4: SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

We did not submit any matters to a vote of our
security holders during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

Use of Proceeds

On December 9, 2004, the SEC declared effective our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-118740) in connection with our initial public offering of common stock. We sold 4,166,667 shares of common
stock at $15.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $62.5 million, and selling shareholders sold 2,083,333 shares of common stock at $15.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $31.2 million. We received net proceeds of approximately
$56.1 million after underwriters discounts and commissions of $4.4 million and other expenses related to the offering of $2.0 million. None of the proceeds of the offering that we received were used as payments to our directors or officers (or
their associates), or to our affiliates or 10% shareholders. All of the expenses of the offering were direct or indirect payments to others and not payments to our directors or officers (or their associates) or to our affiliates or 10% shareholders.
Credit Suisse First Boston LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. acted as joint book-running managers of the offering, with Piper Jaffray & Co., Thomas Weisel Partners LLC and Pacific Crest Securities Inc. acting as co-managers of the
offering.

Through December 31, 2007, we have used approximately $38.3 million of the proceeds for business acquisitions, including
related earn-out payments, and the purchase of property and equipment and intangible assets. The remaining proceeds have been invested in money market funds and highly liquid, short-term investments. Our current and planned use of the proceeds does
not represent a material change from the use of proceeds described in the prospectus relating to the Registration Statement.

Overview

HouseValues, Inc. provides real estate professionals with the tools and services they need to manage and grow their real estate
businesses. Our subscription software products include RealtyGenerator, a turnkey lead generation and lead management system for real estate brokerage companies; and MarketLeader, a customer relationship management and lead management solution for
real estate agents. We also provide real estate professionals with access to industry-leading media buying and lead generation services to help them attract new clients and promote themselves throughout their community.

Additionally, HouseValues provides consumers with free access to the information and tools they need throughout the home buying and selling process. Our
consumer websites include: JustListed.com a service that notifies home buyers as soon as new homes hit the market; HouseValues.com, a service that provides home sellers with market valuations of their current homes and HomePages.com, a real estate
portal that enables consumers to see all the home listings in their area, view detailed neighborhood and school data, compare recent home sales, find local real estate agents, and find the value of their own homes.

How We Generate Revenues

We generate the majority of
our revenues from the services we provide to real estate agents and brokers.

HouseValues: We charge real estate agents a one-time
set-up fee and a monthly fixed fee for a monthly bundle of exclusive leads on prospective home sellers, the Market Leader customer relationship management system and training and coaching programs.

JustListed: Like the HouseValues product, we charge real estate agents a one-time set-up fee and a monthly fixed fee for a monthly bundle of
exclusive leads on prospective home buyers, the Market Leader system and training and coaching programs.

Realty Generator:We
charge real estate brokers a one-time set-up fee and a monthly fixed fee for services, which include a website, customer relationship management tool, marketing materials, training and support. We also generate revenue by placing online advertising
for our broker customers, to drive traffic and leads to their web site.

HomePages/Showcase: We sell Showcase, an online marketing
subscription to real estate professionals that allows them to feature selected listings on our HomePages web site. We charge a monthly fixed fee for this service. We began generating revenue from this product in January 2006.

We generally provide our services under terms of a one-year agreement that then continues on a
month-to-month basis until terminated.

All initial set-up fees are recognized as revenue on a pro rata basis over the estimated customer
life or the life of the contract, whichever is longer. The remainder of our revenue is derived from monthly fees for use of our MarketLeader system, advertising income and other marketing services, sales of surplus leads to brokers, the sales of
branded marketing collateral, and the collection of contract termination fees, none of which materially affects our operating results. These sources of revenues in the aggregate were less than 5% of our revenues for all annual periods presented in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our Expenses

The largest components of our expenses are personnel and marketing costs. Personnel expenses consist of salaries, benefits and incentive compensation for our employees, including commissions for sales people. These expenses are categorized
in our statements of operations based on each employees principal function. Marketing expenses consist of programs designed to attract consumers to our web sites and to promote our services to potential customers, primarily residential real
estate agents. The largest component of our marketing expenses consists of advertising designed to increase the number of potential home buyers and sellers who visit our web sites.

The Impact of Seasonality and Cyclicality

The residential real estate and advertising markets are
influenced by seasonality, as well as overall economic cycles.

Seasonality

While individual geographic markets vary, real estate transaction activity tends to progressively increase from January through the summer months, and
then gradually slows over the last quarter of the calendar year. As a result, we may experience slower lead generation and customer adoption toward the end of the year. We are also subject to seasonal fluctuations in advertising rates and lead
generation. Television advertising is generally more expensive in the second and fourth calendar quarters in connection with network premieres and finales and the holiday season.

Cyclicality

The success of our business depends on the health of the residential real estate
market, which historically has been subject to economic cycles. Following a period of sustained growth, the residential real estate market has entered a down cycle. Housing prices have moderated or declined and residential real estate transactions
have slowed significantly in major markets that are important to our business.

Typically, during downturns in housing markets, demand for
residential real estate decreases and demand for the services of real estate professionals similarly decreases. In these markets, the number of real estate professionals may decline significantly as less successful agents and brokers leave the
profession and fewer people seek to become real estate professionals. A decline in the number of customers or a decrease in the amount they wish to spend on services such as ours will negatively impact our revenue and increase our customer
acquisition costs. In addition, the decline in the demand for housing could increase our lead generation costs and hurt our margins.

Trends in the real estate market are unpredictable; therefore our operating results, to the extent they reflect changes in the broader real estate industry, may be subject to significant fluctuation.

Current Year Overview

Revenue from continuing operations was $59.8 million for the year, a 30% decline compared to 2006. Revenue decreased in 2007 due primarily to a 36% decrease in average customer count and an 8% decrease in average
revenue per customer. The related declines in revenue were partially offset by the addition of Realty Generator revenues in the fourth quarter. Existing home transaction volumes continued to decline in 2007. We believe this trend impacts the
investment in marketing that real estate professionals are willing to make, resulting in higher churn and slower new sales, as well as price reductions reflecting softer demand. During 2007, we took several key steps to realign our cost structure
with our declining revenues. While we saw a significant decrease in the amount of our total expenses, they increased as a percentage of revenue.

We incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $12.6 million for the year compared to net income from continuing operations of $3.3 million in 2006. Our net loss from continuing operations includes noncash charges of $6.1 million
related to our write-down of goodwill and long-lived assets and $3.1 million related to our application of a full valuation allowance to our net deferred tax assets. These charges reflect our recent history of operating losses, difficult market
conditions in the residential real estate that impacts our near term forecasted operations and cash flows, and the decline in our stock price, particularly in the fourth quarter of 2007.

The following significant business developments affect the comparability of our financial statements:

Purchase of Realty Generator.On November 1, 2007, we completed our acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Realty Generator, LLC
and a related entity for approximately $10.2 million in cash and assumed liabilities as well as incentives based on the future performances of the acquired entities through June 30, 2009. Realty Generator provides services to real estate
brokers, including a web site, a proprietary customer relationship management tool that enables communication with prospective customers, past clients and local real estate professionals, marketing materials and dedicated training and account
management support. The systems are integrated such that the leads generated from the web site traffic are distributed to the agent teams, allowing brokers to monitor agent follow-through. We have accounted for this as a business combination and
have included Realty Generators results of operations from the acquisition date forward.

Investment in ActiveRain.On
November 16, 2007 we acquired 32.4% of the outstanding voting stock of ActiveRain Real Estate Network for $2.75 million. ActiveRain is a professional community and social networking platform serving the real estate community. ActiveRain
has grown its membership over the past two years to more than 70,000 real estate professionals. Our investment in ActiveRain is recorded using the equity method of accounting which requires that we record our proportionate share of their net loss
adjusted for any difference between our cost and the underlying equity in their net assets at the acquisition date.

Closure of the
Yakima Facility. On July 31, 2007, we implemented a plan to reduce operating expenses, including the closure of our Yakima satellite center. In connection with this plan, we reduced our workforce by approximately 30%, or about 100
employees. In the third quarter of 2007, we recorded severance charges of $0.4 million as well as other related charges of $0.1 million. At the same time, we recognized an impairment charge of $1.2 million to reduce the Yakima leasehold improvements
to their estimated fair value less selling costs.

Discontinued Mortgage Operations.In January 2007, we announced our exit from the
mortgage lead generation business and our intention to scale back or eliminate initiatives that are not critical to our real estate agent customers. These reductions resulted in an overall reduction of our workforce by about 12%, or 60 employees. In
the fourth quarter of 2006, we recorded a $6.2 million impairment charge for goodwill and intangible assets related to the mortgage business. In connection with the discontinuation of our mortgage operations and the reduction in workforce, we paid
payroll and related costs of approximately $0.5 million in 2007 and incurred additional stock compensation expense estimated at approximately $0.5 million.

Subsequent to year end, the following developments occurred:

In January 2008, we terminated our lease for the Yakima facility and in a second related transaction, assigned our purchase option for the Yakima
facility and its remaining assets to a third party for a fee of $1.4 million. We recorded a gain of $0.8 million on this transaction in the first quarter of 2008.

Reduction in Workforce.On January 23, 2008, we completed a reduction to our workforce of approximately 45 employees. We will incur cash severance charges of approximately $0.6 million and additional
accelerated vesting charges of $0.2 million related to equity compensation in the first quarter of 2008. The cash severance charges will be paid out in 2008.

Overall, our real estate revenues for 2007 decreased 30% from 2006. The decrease in revenues is
due primarily to a 36% decrease in our average real estate core customer count and an 8% decline in average revenue per customer. These decreases were partially offset by the addition of Realty Generator revenue in the fourth quarter of 2007. More
information about the sequential change in real estate revenue and customers is included in the Key Operational Metrics  Real Estate Products section of the Managements Discussion and Analysis.

Overall revenues are expected to be significantly lower in 2008 as a result of the economic trends
affecting our real estate business, although revenues from our broker business is expected to increase.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of online and television advertising, as well as
salaries, commissions and related expenses for our sales and marketing staff. Other expenses include credit card fees, agent customer referral fees and corporate communications.

Sales and marketing expense decreased in total but increased slightly as a percentage of revenue during 2007 when compared to 2006, primarily due to
reduced lead generation costs and payroll and related costs. The decrease in lead generation costs was consistent with our decrease in revenues and remained consistent as a percentage of revenue in 2007 compared to 2006. Payroll and related costs
decreased in 2007 due to decreased average headcount, as we realigned our cost structure to our projected revenues. Headcount for 2007 decreased to 153 at December 31, 2007, which compares to 399 at December 31, 2006.

We expect sales and marketing expense to decrease in total dollars, relative to expected lower revenue, and stabilize as a percentage of revenues in
2008.

Technology and product development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for
employees responsible for customer and internal technology services. Also included are license fees, maintenance costs, Internet connectivity and hosting costs.

Technology and product development expense decreased in absolute dollars but increased modestly as a percentage of revenue for 2007 as compared to 2006, as we reduced the number of employees and contractors to bring
our cost structure into alignment with our decreasing revenues.

In 2008, we expect technology and product development to decrease in total
dollars due to lower staffing levels, but to increase slightly as a percentage of revenues as we continue to enhance our existing products and infrastructure.

##### Table of Contents

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for executive,
accounting, and human resources personnel. These costs also include audit and legal fees, business consulting fees, business insurance premiums, rent and related expenses.

General and administrative expenses were consistent year over year, but increased as a percentage of revenues due to our lower revenue base.

We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease in total dollars as we reduced headcount and facilities costs, but to increase slightly as a
percentage of revenue in 2008.

Impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets

Based on our recent history of operating losses and the decline in the market value of our common stock, particularly in the fourth quarter of 2007, we
evaluated the recoverability of our goodwill and long-lived assets and assessed potential impairment using market prices and other available information. As a result we recorded an impairment charge to goodwill of $3.6 million and an impairment
charge of $0.8 million related to computer equipment, software, office equipment and furniture. In addition, during the year we determined that certain internally developed software projects had limited future benefits, resulting in impairment
charges totaling $0.6 million.

Also, in July 2007, we closed our satellite sales and service center in Yakima, Washington, and recognized
an impairment charge of $1.2 million to reduce the related leasehold improvements to their estimated fair value less selling costs.

Depreciation and Amortization of Property and Equipment

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased
year-over-year. Accelerated depreciation recognized for the early retirement of the technology investment in HomePages in the first quarter of 2007 was later partially offset by the release of the updated product in April 2007.

We expect depreciation expense to decrease in 2008 primarily due to the impairment charges taken against our capital assets during 2007, partially offset
by depreciation from new asset acquisitions.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets increased for 2007 when compared to 2006, due to the new intangible assets related to the Realty Generator acquisition
in the fourth quarter. This increase was partially offset by the early retirement of a mapping technology asset in March 2007.

We expect
2008 amortization expense to increase due to the full year of amortization expense on the intangible assets related to the acquisition of Realty Generator.

Interest Income

Interest income increased in 2007 when compared to 2006 due to increased rates of
return on investments. Overall cash and investment balances declined significantly in the fourth quarter of 2007 as we acquired Realty Generator and invested in ActiveRain. At December 31, 2007, we held $62.9 million in cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments, compared to $77.8 million at December 31, 2006.

Income Taxes

We recognized income tax expense for 2007 as a result of recording a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, which was partially offset
by a tax benefit resulting from our ability to carry back current year tax losses and recover prior taxes paid.

|                     |  | (dollars in thousands)   |       
|Real estate revenues |  | $                        | 85,824 |      | $ | 79,088   |  | $             | 6,736 |  | 9 | %

Real estate revenue increased 9% due primarily to revenue from our HomePages Showcase service, new
in 2006. Revenue from our lead product bundles, HouseValues and JustListed, increased modestly due to a 16% increase in our average real estate core customer count, offset by a 5% decline in average revenue per customer.

Sales and marketing expense increased in total and as a percentage of revenue during 2006 when
compared to 2005 primarily due to increased lead generation costs. Lead generation costs increased significantly as a percentage of revenue in 2006 due to the higher cost of generating leads compared to the historical low cost levels experienced in
2005 as well as the higher average level of lead commitments. Payroll and related costs increased in 2006 due to increased average headcount, as we scaled our real estate operations during 2005 and 2006 and as we developed our workforce in our new
Yakima location. Headcount for 2006 increased through September 30, 2006 but declined during the fourth quarter of 2006.

Technology and product development expense increased significantly in absolute dollars and as a
percentage of revenue for 2006 as compared to 2005, primarily due to payroll and related expenses, including stock-based compensation, technology licenses and contractor expense. Payroll and related expenses increased as we added personnel to invest
in new product planning and to maintain and improve our existing services, features and infrastructure for our larger customer base. Expenses related to technology licenses increased as we supported new data sources for our HomePages web site.

General and administrative expenses for 2006 increased both in total dollars and as a percentage
of revenues when compared to 2005, primarily due to increased salaries and related expenses (including stock-based compensation and severance) for the additional staffing hired in 2005 to support the growth in our business, as well as our operations
as a public company, increased business taxes and increased rent and facilities costs, primarily due to the opening of our Yakima location. Business taxes increased in 2006 compared to 2005 due to a settlement for a tax audit recorded in 2005.

In December 2005, we reached an agreement with the Washington State Department of Revenue to settle a business and occupation tax audit
covering the period from January 2001 through September 2005 for a total of $0.7 million. Through September 2005, we had accrued $2.5 million for the estimated cost of the assessment, which was our best estimate of our ultimate liability based on
the preliminary assessment and subsequent negotiations with the Department of Revenue. As a result, in the fourth quarter of 2005, we reduced our accrual to the settlement amount and recorded $1.8 million as a reduction of general and administrative
expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization of Property and Equipment

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased year-over-year primarily due to additional depreciation expense on leasehold
improvements at our Yakima location, capitalized software development and on new workstations and equipment. Additionally, in the last half of 2006 we recognized $0.6 million of accelerated depreciation on approximately $1.0 million of unamortized
technology investment in HomePages that was retired upon the launch of the next major release of the product in early 2007.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets decreased for 2006, when compared to 2005, primarily
due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.

Interest Income

Interest income increased significantly in 2006 when compared to 2005 due to increased rates of return on investments. Overall cash and investment
balances declined in 2006 as we purchased and retired 2 million shares of our common stock for $11.4 million and invested in property and equipment partially offset by cash generated from operations. At December 31, 2006, we held $77.8
million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, compared to $84.9 million at December 31, 2005.

Income Taxes

Our 2006 effective annual tax rate for continuing operations was 7.0% compared to an effective rate of 32.6% in 2005, primarily due to our
pretax income relative to our tax-exempt interest income.

The quarterly results for 2007 have been revised to appropriately recognize the early retirement of an
internally developed software product related to our HomePages web site in the first quarter of 2007. During our year end closing procedures, we determined that this project had not been appropriately depreciated in the first quarter of
2007. Under the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 99, Materiality and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, we have
determined that the error was immaterial to the prior quarterly periods and have presented revised quarterly results within this Form 10-K. We will adjust 2007 quarterly results within our quarterly filings on Form 10-Q when next presented during
2008. The impacts of this revision on quarterly periods have been presented subsequent to the Quarterly Consolidated Statement of Operations in the table titled Immaterial Error Correction for Prior Quarterly Periods during 2007.

Comparison of the Quarters Ended December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007

Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2007 decreased 12% from the third quarter of 2007. We experienced a 14% decrease in average core customer count during
the fourth quarter, while average monthly revenue per core customer decreased 5%. These decreases were partially offset by the addition of Realty Generator revenue in the fourth quarter of 2007. More information about the sequential change in
revenue and customers is included in the Key Operational Metrics section of Managements Discussion and Analysis.

Fourth
quarter 2007 sales and marketing expense decreased $1.1 million from the third quarter of 2007, but remained constant as a percentage of revenue. This decrease in expense primarily resulted from reduced salary expense related to headcount reductions
in the third and fourth quarters of 2007. Lead generation expenses also decreased in absolute dollars but increased slightly as a percentage of revenue primarily due to seasonal increases in consumer lead generation costs.

When comparing the fourth quarter of 2007 with the third quarter of 2007, technology and product development expense decreased about $0.4 million and
decreased slightly as a percentage of revenue. The decrease in expense was primarily due to decreased salaries, net of increased capitalized labor.

Fourth quarter 2007 general and administrative expenses remained consistent with the third quarter of 2007, but increased slightly as a percentage of revenue.

During the fourth quarter of 2007, we evaluated the recoverability of our goodwill and long-lived assets and assessed potential impairment using market prices and other available information. As a result we recorded
an impairment charge to goodwill of $3.6 million and an impairment charge of $0.8 million related to computer equipment, software, office equipment and furniture. In addition, we determined that certain internally developed software projects had
limited future benefits, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.6 million.

Also, in the third quarter of 2007, we closed our satellite
sales and service center in Yakima, Washington, recognizing an impairment charge of $1.2 million to reduce the related leasehold improvements to their estimated fair value less selling costs.

|(1) | Real estate core revenue consists of revenue from our primary real estate service offerings, HouseValues, JustListed, and agent advertising products. The customers from these
primary service offerings are referred to as core real estate customers.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | Other real estate revenue includes revenue related to Realty Generator, sales of surplus leads to brokers with no minimum commitment, monthly fees for use of our tools, the sales of
branded marketing collateral, seminar attendance fees, and advertising.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(3) | Average monthly customer churn is calculated by dividing the number of core real estate customers who canceled during the quarter by the average core real estate customers in the
quarter, divided by the number of months in the quarter. One minus our average monthly churn rate equates to our average monthly retention rate. Our annualized customer retention rate is calculated as average monthly retention raised to the power of
12. Other companies may calculate churn and retention differently, and their churn and retention data may not be directly comparable to ours.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(4) | Average core real estate customers in the quarter are calculated as the average of core real estate customers at the beginning and at the end of the quarter.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(5) | Average monthly revenue per core real estate customer (ARPU) is calculated as core real estate revenue for the quarter divided by the average number of core real estate customers in
the quarter.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our core real estate customer count decreased by 1,616 customers during the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to
a net decrease of 1,559 customers in the third quarter of 2007. While the number of cancelling customers decreased this quarter, we also added fewer customers this quarter due to typical seasonal factors, as well as difficult market conditions.
Ending core real estate customers at December 31, 2007 decreased 38% compared to December 31, 2006.

Existing home transaction
volumes continued to decline in the fourth quarter of 2007. We believe this trend impacts the investment in marketing that real estate professionals are willing to make, resulting in higher churn and slower new sales. Average monthly churn for our
real estate business was 9.8% for the fourth quarter of 2007, up from 9.5% in the third quarter of 2007. Monthly churn of 9.8% equates to 90.2% monthly retention which represents a 29% annualized retention rate. While we expect to experience
fluctuations in our churn rate from quarter to quarter, we believe that market conditions may continue to drive similar trends in the near term.

Average monthly revenue per real estate customer for the fourth quarter of 2007 decreased 5% compared to the third quarter of 2007. The decline in ARPU primarily reflected price reductions that were made in response to

softening demand. These price reductions included efforts to add customers in areas that can be supported by our current lead production. Average revenue per
customer will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the mix of sales for products priced differently across lower and higher priced geographies, the demand for existing services and the acceptance of new product offerings.

At December 31, 2007, our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were held in the
form of bank deposits, money market accounts and auction-rate securities. These auction-rate securities were classified as short-term investments available for sale and are reported at fair value, which approximates cost. Subsequent to year-end, we
sold the auction-rate securities at par. Currently, substantially all of our cash is being held in money market funds backed by short-term U.S. Government obligations.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, as well as the cash flow that we may generate from our operations.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by
operating activities primarily consists of net income or loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes, impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets and the effect of
changes in working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $11.2 million in 2007 compared to 2006. This decrease was primarily due to an $8.2 million reduction in our current liabilities, as well as an increase in our net loss
after non-cash items.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $12.8 million in 2006 compared to 2005. This increase resulted
primarily from a decrease in net income after non-cash items and the reclassification of tax benefits received on the exercise of stock options from operating activities to financing activities effective in 2006, as required with our adoption of
SFAS 123R.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for 2007 increased by $2.3 million compared to the same period last year. In the fourth quarter of 2007, we purchased Realty Generator and invested in ActiveRain for a total cash outlay of $12.0 million.
These expenditures were partially offset by a decrease in our purchases of property and equipment of $4.9 million and the $3.8 million increase in net proceeds from the liquidation of our short-term investments. Our capital expenditures in 2007 were
generally investments in our customer-facing infrastructure and the development costs related to new products and features.

Cash used in
investing activities for 2006 decreased by $11.3 million compared to 2005. During 2006, our net purchases of short-term investments decreased by $5.6 million when compared to 2005. Additionally, in 2005 we purchased The Loan Page for $5.2 million in
cash.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for 2007 decreased $9.4 million primarily due to the $1.0 million used for the purchase and retirement of 250,000 shares of common stock in 2007, compared to $11.4 million used for
the purchase and retirement of 2 million shares in 2006.

Cash used by financing activities increased by $10.0 million in 2006
compared to 2005 primarily due to the purchase and retirement of 2.0 million shares of our common stock for $11.4 million during the last half of 2006. This was partially offset by the proceeds from exercises of stock options and warrants, and
by the tax benefit realized from the exercise of stock options, which is now classified as a financing cash flow as required with our adoption of SFAS 123R.

Purchase and Retirement of Common Stock

In October 2006, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to
purchase and retire up to 2 million shares of our common stock. During the third quarter of 2007, we purchased 250,000 shares for $1.0 million. The shares were purchased at an average price of $3.87 and represent approximately 1% of the shares
outstanding at June 30, 2007. At December 31, 2007, 1.75 million shares remain available for purchase under the share repurchase program.

Contractual Obligations and Known Future Cash Requirements

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations at December 31, 2007 and the expected effect on our liquidity and cash flows. We expect to
fund these commitments primarily with operating cash flows generated in the normal course of business.

This table excludes the short-term liabilities disclosed on our balance sheets and other long-term
liabilities that do not require cash payments, such as deferred rent and deferred income taxes. Additionally, the Yakima facility lease that was terminated in January 2008 was excluded from this table.

Note Payable

During the fourth quarter of
2005 we acquired The Loan Page. As part of that acquisition we assumed a note payable with a face amount of $1,680 and a contractual interest rate of 3.55%. Upon acquisition, the note was

discounted to a fair value of $1,590 to reflect an effective yield of 8.2%. The note requires all principal and interest be paid in full on December 22,
2008, a total payment of $2,000. The balance outstanding for this note payable, including accrued interest, was $1,873 at December 31, 2007.

Advertising and Media Contracts

We purchase advertising from numerous online and offline advertising vendors, such
as Google, Yahoo!, CNN, Fox, MSNBC and HomeGain. We typically purchase and pay for online and television advertising on a monthly basis. To the extent that we have ongoing obligations to purchase a fixed or minimum amount of advertising, we have
included these obligations under purchase commitments in the table above.

Future Earn-out Payments related to the Acquisition of Realty Generator

On November 1, 2007, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Realty Generator, LLC and a related entity for $10.2
million in cash and assumed liabilities, as well as certain contingent payments dependent on the future results of operations. Future incentive payments will be based on revenue goals through June 30, 2009 as well as payments equal to 75% of
earnings, as defined, through December 31, 2008. As contingent consideration is earned, the amounts will be recorded as goodwill. As of December 31, 2007, we had accrued $173 for contingent consideration earned.

Future Capital Requirements

We believe that
our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to satisfy our currently anticipated cash requirements through at least the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including
our rate of revenue growth or decline, the expansion of our marketing and sales activities, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, and the timing of introductions of new services and enhancements to existing
services. Although we are currently not a party to any agreement or letter of intent with respect to investments in, or acquisitions of, complementary businesses, products, services or technologies, we may enter into these types of arrangements in
the future. We may need to raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing to the extent necessary to fund such activities. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms favorable to us.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our
financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The following
discussion highlights the policies and estimates we feel are critical.

Business Combinations, Intangible Assets, Goodwill and Equity Investments

We account for our business combinations using the purchase method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and
liabilities assumed be recorded at their fair values on the date of acquisition. Significant judgment is used to estimate the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired, including estimating future cash flows from the acquired business,
determining appropriate discount rates, asset lives and other assumptions. We determined the fair value of various identifiable intangible assets, including customer lists and developed technology, using factors such as revenue estimates of
customers acquired, adjusted for assumed attrition rates and estimated costs that would be incurred to obtain the capabilities gained from the acquired developed technology. Our estimates of revenue and costs are based on historical data, internal
estimates and a variety of external sources.

##### Table of Contents

Intangible assets, other than goodwill, and other long-lived assets are being amortized over their
estimated useful lives and are periodically reviewed to evaluate whether the value of these assets may be impaired. The determination of the fair value of these assets is dependent on material judgment and estimates, including estimates of related
future cash flows, market price for similar assets and the assets related lives.

We record goodwill when the purchase price of an
acquisition exceeds the fair value of the assets acquired less the liabilities assumed. We evaluate goodwill annually for impairment or when circumstances indicate the carrying value of this asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill impairment testing
requires significant judgment to determine the appropriate reporting unit, to estimate future cash flows from that reporting unit, using appropriate discounts, and to estimate the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, asset
lives and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the fair value determination and potential goodwill impairment of each reporting unit.

Our minority investment in ActiveRain must also be periodically reviewed to determine whether the value of the investment may be impaired. The
determination of the fair value of this asset is dependent on material judgment and estimates, including estimates of related future cash flows and market price for similar assets.

Our recent history of operating losses and the decline in the market value of our stock, particularly in the fourth quarter of 2007 caused us to assess
the realizability of our goodwill and other long-lived assets. As a result of these analyses, we recorded impairment charges totaling $6.1 million related to goodwill and other long-lived assets in 2007.

In 2006, we assessed the realizability of assets related to the mortgage segment. As a result of the deterioration of projected future cash flows for our
mortgage segment, we recorded an impairment charge of $6.2 million in 2006 related to the intangible assets and goodwill from The Loan Page acquisition. Management made a formal decision to exit the mortgage lead generation business in January 2007.

Accounting for Income Taxes

We
use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and
liabilities and for operating loss carryforwards in our existing business and related to acquisitions. We must make significant assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine the provision for income taxes and the related current and deferred tax
assets and liabilities, as well as the valuation allowance to be recorded against deferred tax assets. Our judgments, assumptions and estimates must take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws and possible outcomes of
future tax audits.

Changes in the amount of our tax exempt income, increases in operating losses, changes in the tax laws or our
interpretation of the tax laws and the resolution of future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes and the amount of valuation allowances required in our consolidated financial statements.

At December 31, 2007, we have net deferred tax assets of $6.3 million. We considered all available evidence to determine whether a valuation
allowance was required for those assets, including the following factors: estimates regarding the timing and amount of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in prior carryback years as permitted under tax law, historical
taxable income, normalized for non-recurring items, expected future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. A valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be
realized. We believe that, based on our current projections of future operating profits that it is not likely that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets and have recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of our deferred tax
assets as of December 31, 2007.

Stock-Based Compensation

In 2006 we began recognizing stock-based compensation under the fair value method using the Black-Scholes pricing model which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including estimating the stock option
expected life and stock price volatility. Our relatively short history as a public company requires us to evaluate the stock option expected lives used by a group of peer companies considered with our own limited experience. Expected volatility is
estimated by calculating the actual stock price volatility of our peer group calculated from the dates of their respective initial public offerings, again considered with our own limited experience. We update these estimates over time as we gain
additional experience of our own. Changes in any of these assumptions could materially impact the estimated fair value of options granted.

The following table illustrates the effect of changing these significant variables on the estimated fair value of our options. The following examples are hypothetical but representative of our option grants and their related fair values at
December 31, 2007. In each analysis, the remaining variables are held constant. This illustration is not intended to provide a range of exposure or expected deviation.

Through December 31, 2005, we recognized stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value
method. For purposes of financial accounting for employee stock-based compensation issued before our initial public offering, we applied hindsight within each period to arrive at reassessed values for the shares underlying the options. We recorded
deferred stock-based compensation of $5,263 for the year ended December 31, 2004. This amount represents to the difference between the reassessed values and the exercise prices. No deferred stock-based compensation was recorded during the year
ended December 31, 2005 because the exercise price of the stock options equaled or exceeded the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. We recognized deferred compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting
period of the options, generally four years.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which provides guidance on how to measure assets and
liabilities that use fair value. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another U.S. GAAP standard requires assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, but does not expand the use of fair value to new circumstances. This standard also will
require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. We adopted SFAS 157 in January 2008. Our adoption of SFAS 157 did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities  Including an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). Under SFAS 159, entities may elect to measure eligible items at fair value on a contract-by-contract basis, with changes in fair

value recognized in earnings each reporting period. The election, called the fair value option, will enable entities to achieve an offset accounting effect
for changes in fair value of certain related assets and liabilities without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. We have elected not to apply the fair value option to any of our financial instruments. As a result, our adoption of
SFAS 159 did not impact our financial position and results of operations.

ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary objective of our
investment activities is to preserve principal and liquidity without incurring significant risk. To achieve this objective, we invest in short-term, high-quality, interest-bearing securities. Our investments in debt securities are subject to
interest rate risk. To minimize our exposure to an adverse shift in interest rates, we invest in short-term securities and maintain an average maturity of one year or less. We place our investments with high-quality issuers and limit the amount of
credit exposure to any one issuer. Due to the nature of our short-term investments, we believe that we are not subject to any material market risk exposure. We do not have any foreign currency or other derivative instruments.

As of December 31, 2007 we were holding $27.4 million of investment grade auction rate securities. Subsequent to year end, we sold all of the
auction rate securities at par. As of March 11, 2008, we are holding our cash in government obligations money market funds. We will continue to invest in these money market funds and other vehicles that we believe will meet our primary
investment objectives of capital preservation and liquidity.

no disagreements with the Companys independent registered public accountants on accounting and financial disclosure matters within the three year period ended December 31, 2007, or in any period subsequent to such date.

ITEM 9A: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)). Based on
that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be
disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(f), for us. Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Frameworkissued by the
Committee of the Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A
control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected.

KPMG, LLP,
an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, which is included herein at page 41.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2007, which were identified in connection with our managements evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d)
under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

HouseValues, Inc.:

We have audited HouseValues, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in
Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). HouseValues, Inc.s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, appearing under Item 9A. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on HouseValues, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design
and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, HouseValues, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets
of HouseValues, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, and our report
dated March 11, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

HouseValues, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets of HouseValues, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2007. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited financial statement schedules IIValuation and Qualifying Accounts. These consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of HouseValues, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of
accounting for stock-based compensation for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors effective January 1, 2006.

We also
have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), HouseValues, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established inInternal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 11, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting.

Note
1: The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Founded in 1999, HouseValues, Inc. (NASDAQ: SOLD) provides real estate professionals with the tools and services they need to manage and grow their real
estate businesses. Our subscription software products include RealtyGenerator, a turnkey lead generation and lead management system for real estate brokerage companies; and MarketLeader, a customer relationship management and lead management
solution for real estate agents. We also provide real estate professionals with access to industry-leading media buying and lead generation services to help them attract new clients and promote themselves throughout their community.

Additionally, HouseValues provides consumers with free access to the information and tools they need throughout the home buying and selling process. Our
consumer websites include: JustListed.com a service that notifies home buyers as soon as new homes hit the market; HouseValues.com, a service that provides home sellers with market valuations of their current homes and HomePages.com, a real estate
portal that enables consumers to see all the home listings in their area, view detailed neighborhood and school data, compare recent home sales, find local real estate agents, and find the value of their own homes.

Basis of Presentation

Consolidation
 The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of HouseValues and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Our equity investment in an entity over which we have significant influence but hold less than a controlling interest is not consolidated. We apply the
equity method and record our investment at cost plus our equity in their undistributed net income or loss adjusted for any difference between our cost and the underlying equity in the net assets of the investee at the date of the investment. This
investment is evaluated for impairment when a decline in the value of the investment to less than its carrying value is determined to be other than temporary.

Business segments  We operate a single business segment, representing marketing services provided to real estate professionals. Substantially all of our business comes from customers and operations
located within the United States, and we do not have any assets located in foreign countries.

Discontinued operations  In
January 2007, we exited the mortgage business. Results of operations related to the mortgage business have been segregated from continuing operations and presented separately, net of related income taxes, on the statement of operations. We also have
restated comparative periods for discontinued operations.

Reclassifications  Prior period financial statement amounts have
been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

##### Table of Contents

HouseValues, Inc.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the fair value of acquired
intangible assets and goodwill, the useful lives and potential impairment of intangible assets and property and equipment, the carrying value of our equity investment in an entity, the value of common stock options for the purpose of determining
stock-based compensation, liabilities and valuation allowances, and certain tax liabilities among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. The results of these assumptions form
the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility
is probable. Payments received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period.

We generate the majority of our revenues from the services we provide to real estate agents and brokers. We generally charge a one-time set-up fee and a monthly fixed fee for a monthly bundle of services. Services are
usually provided under the terms of a one-year agreement that then continues on a month-to-month basis until terminated. All initial set-up fees are recognized as revenue on a pro rata basis over the estimated customer life or the life of the
contract, whichever is longer.

The remainder of our revenue is derived primarily from penalties for early termination of agent customer
contracts , monthly fees for use of our Market Leader system, advertising and the sale of HouseValues branded marketing collateral, none of which materially affects our operating results.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and
marketing expenses consist primarily of online and television advertising, as well as salaries, commissions and related expenses for our sales and marketing staff. Other expenses include merchant processing fees, customer referral fees, as well as
public relations and corporate communications costs.

Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. Total advertising expense was
$17,976, $27,486 and $17,292 in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Technology and Product Development

Technology and product development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for employees responsible for customer and internal
technology services. Also included are license fees, maintenance costs, Internet connectivity and hosting costs.

General and
Administrative

General and administrative costs consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for executive, legal,
accounting, and human resources personnel. These costs also include insurance and professional fees, business taxes, rent and related expenses. Professional fees primarily consist of outside legal, audit and business consulting fees.

Stock-based Compensation

On
January 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004) (SFAS 123R), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation for all stock-based awards made
to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123R supersedes

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, for periods beginning in
2006.

We adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as
of January 1, 2006. In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, our consolidated financial statements for periods prior to 2006 have not been restated to reflect this change.

Prior to our adoption of SFAS 123R, we determined our stock-based compensation expense under the intrinsic value method on a straight-line basis over the
vesting period of the options. With the adoption of SFAS 123R, this expense has been replaced with stock-based compensation expense determined under the fair value method. Additionally, the deferred compensation in the equity section of our balance
sheet has been reclassified to our common stock account effective January 1, 2006.

Stock-based compensation recognized in 2006 and
2007 is based on the fair value of the portion of our stock-based awards earned over that service period using the straight-line method, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Stock-based compensation recognized in our 2006 and 2007 financial statements
includes compensation cost for stock-based awards granted prior to, but not fully vested as of December 31, 2005 and additional stock-based awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2005.

The compensation cost for awards granted prior to 2006 is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of
SFAS 123 while awards granted after December 31, 2005 follow the provisions of SFAS 123R to determine the grant date fair value and compensation cost.

Upon adoption of SFAS 123R, we continue to use the Black-Scholes option pricing model as our method of valuation for stock option awards. Our determination of the fair value of stock option awards on the
date of grant using this option pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the expected life of the award, our
expected stock price volatility over the expected life of the award and projected exercise behaviors. Although the fair value of stock-based awards is determined in accordance with SFAS 123R, the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input
of highly subjective assumptions, and other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results.

Concentration of Risk

Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are maintained in accounts with a major financial institution in the United States of America, in
the form of money market accounts and auction-rate securities. Substantially all of the cash and cash equivalents on deposit exceed the federally insured limits for such deposits.

As of December 31, 2007, $27,400 was invested in investment grade auction-rate securities. Subsequent to year end, we sold all of the auction rate
securities at par. As of March 11, 2008, we are holding our cash in government obligations money market funds. We will continue to invest in these money market funds and other vehicles that we believe will meet our primary investment objectives of
capital preservation and liquidity.



Cash Equivalents and Short-term
Investments

Cash equivalents are short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase.
Investments with stated maturities of greater than three months when purchased are classified as short-term investments.

Fair Value of Financial
Instruments

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted
cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, approximate fair value because of their short maturities or interest rate reset features.

Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are non-interest bearing. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for potentially uncollectible receivables. We evaluate the collectibility of
our accounts receivable based on several factors, including historical trends, aging of accounts, write-off experience and expectations of future performance. Delinquent accounts receivable are written off when they are determined to be
uncollectible.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at historical cost less depreciation. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:



|                                |  |                                             
|------------------------------- |  | --------------------------------------------
|                                |  | Estimated Useful Life                       
|Computer equipment and software |  | 3 years                                     
|Internally developed software   |  | 3 years                                     
|Office equipment and furniture  |  | 1.5  5 years                               
|Leasehold improvements          |  | Lesser of remaining lease term or asset life

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.
Impairment charges are recognized when the recorded value of the asset exceeds its fair value.

Our goodwill is reviewed annually in our
fourth quarter for impairment and when circumstances indicate our goodwill might be impaired. Impairment determination is made at the reporting unit level.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives:



|                     |  |                      
|-------------------- |  | ---------------------
|                     |  | Estimated Useful Life
|Developed technology |  | 3 years              
|Domain names         |  | 5 years              
|Customer Base        |  | 3 years              
|Tradename            |  | 5 years              

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue primarily represents subscription agreement payments collected in advance and initial set up fees collected at account activation. Prepaid subscriptions are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
term of the agreement and initial set up fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average life of a subscriber or the life of the contract, whichever is longer.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying

amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which provides guidance on how to measure assets and liabilities that use fair value. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another U.S. GAAP standard requires
assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, but does not expand the use of fair value to new circumstances. This standard also will require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. We adopted SFAS 157 in January 2008. Our
adoption of SFAS 157 did not impact our financial position and results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities  Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). Under SFAS 159, entities may elect to measure eligible items at fair value on a
contract-by-contract basis, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. The election, called the fair value option, will enable entities to achieve an offset accounting effect for changes in fair value of certain related
assets and liabilities without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. We have elected not to apply the fair value option to any of our financial instruments. As a result, our adoption of SFAS 159 did not impact our financial position
and results of operations.

Note 2: Acquisition of Realty Generator

On November 1, 2007, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Realty Generator, LLC and a related entity for $10,158 in cash and assumed liabilities, as well as certain contingent payments dependent on the
future results of operations. Realty Generator enhances our service offerings for real estate brokers by provides a turnkey lead generation and lead management system for real estate brokerage companies.

Future incentive payments will be based on revenue goals through June 30, 2009 as well as payments equal to 75% of Realty Generators earnings,
as defined, through December 31, 2008. As contingent consideration is earned, the amounts will be recorded as goodwill. As of December 31, 2007, we had accrued $173 for contingent consideration earned.

As of the date of acquisition, we assigned the following values to the assets and liabilities acquired:

We have included Realty Generators results of operations in our consolidated statements of
income since November 2007. Realty Generator produced revenues of $928 since their acquisition. The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of our results of operations assuming the acquisition occurred at the beginning of each
of the following periods:



|                                                                 |  |                         |         |   |      |   |

Note 3: Minority Investment in ActiveRain

On November 16, 2007 we acquired 32.4% of the outstanding voting stock of ActiveRain Real Estate Network for $2,750. ActiveRain is a provider of
professional networking, referral, recruitment, content syndication and online marketing services for the community of professionals in real estate and related businesses.

Our investment in ActiveRain is recorded using the equity method of accounting. Our investment represents our original investment and our proportionate
share of their net loss as adjusted for any difference between our cost and the underlying equity in their net assets as of the date of our investment. The difference between our cost and the underlying equity in net assets of ActiveRain was $2,147,
identified as intangible assets (in-process research and development, developed technology, trade name, and member base) and goodwill. Our proportionate share of the in-process research development totaled $59 and was expensed at the date of
investment. The remaining intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives of 3-5 years.

Note 4: Discontinued Operations 
Mortgage Business

In 2005, we launched a product targeted at mortgage professionals. Additionally, in 2005, we acquired the outstanding
stock of The Loan Page, Inc. for $5,247 in cash and assumption of a note payable valued at $1,590, as well as their remaining liabilities. The Loan Page generated and marketed mortgage leads primarily to mortgage lenders.

Subsequently, this highly competitive market faced increasing economic and competitive challenges, especially for new market entrants like HouseValues.
As a result, we decided in January 2007 to exit the mortgage business. During the first quarter of 2007 we paid severance costs of $63 related to the closure of those operations.

Results of operations related to the mortgage business have been segregated from continuing operations and presented separately, net of related income
taxes, on the statement of operations. We also restated the comparative period from the prior years for discontinued operations. Included in discontinued operations are revenues of $1,200, $12,419 and $7,622, including run-off subscription revenues
of $895, $5,774 and $6,923 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Our continuing run-off revenues are not considered significant, and there is not significant continuing involvement with the discontinued operations
of the mortgage business.

Note 5: Closure of Satellite Sales and Service Center

On July 31, 2007, we closed our satellite sales and service center in Yakima, Washington. In connection with this plan, we reduced our workforce by
about 100 employees and paid severance and other charges related to the closure of $545.

At December 31, 2007, we had leasehold
improvements and other assets at the Yakima facility that were classified as held for sale. In 2007, we recognized an impairment charge of $1,200 to reduce these assets to their estimated fair value less selling costs, resulting in a net book value
of $418. These assets are included in property and equipment on the balance sheet at December 31, 2007.

Subsequent to year end, we
terminated our lease for the Yakima facility. We did not pay a fee to terminate the lease. In a related transaction, we assigned our purchase option for the Yakima facility and transferred all remaining assets in the facility to a third party for a
fee of $1,387. We recorded a gain of $791 in the first quarter of 2008, as the transaction with the third party was not fixed and determinable until 2008

Note 6: Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted
average common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common stock. Potential common stock includes stock options and warrants, the dilutive effect of which is calculated using the treasury stock method.

Unvested restricted stock units are considered outstanding common shares and included in the computation of basic earnings per share as of the date that
all necessary conditions of vesting are satisfied. Restricted stock units are excluded from the dilutive earnings per share calculation as their impact is antidilutive. Prior to satisfaction of all conditions of vesting, unvested restricted stock
units are considered contingently issuable and were excluded from weighted average common shares outstanding.

Our short-term investments are considered available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with
the unrealized gains and losses if any, net of taxes, reported as a component of shareholders equity. Any realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are determined on the specific identification method, and the related gains and
losses are reflected as a component of interest income or expense.

As of December 31, 2007, short-term investments consisted of
auction-rate securities of $27,400. These investments have contractual maturities beyond ten years and are classified as short-term based on their 7 to 35-day interest rate reset periods and based on our intent and ability to sell or otherwise
convert to cash. Because of the very short interest rate reset periods as well as our assessment of liquidity of these investments, fair value approximates cost. We have not realized any gains or losses on our short-term investments in the periods
presented. There were no unrealized gains or losses at December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Internally developed software costs include external direct costs and internal direct labor and
related employee benefits costs. Internally developed software costs totaled $3,741 and $4,586, net of accumulated amortization at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
life of the software once it is available for use. Amortization of capitalized internally developed software costs was $2,175, $2,007 and $260 for 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Based on our recent history of operating losses and the decline in the market value of our stock, particularly in the fourth quarter, we evaluated the
recoverability of our long-lived assets and assessed potential impairment using market prices and other available information. As we determined that the carrying amounts of our asset group exceeded our undiscounted future cash flows for the asset
group, we were required to determine the fair market value of the asset group. As a result we recorded an impairment charge of $767 related to computer equipment, software, office equipment and furniture. In addition, we determined that certain
internally developed software projects had limited future benefits, resulting in an impairment charge of $564.

As discussed in note 5,
assets classified as held for sale with a net book value of $418 are included in property and equipment at December 31, 2007.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

During the fourth quarter of 2006, our business outlook for our mortgage business had deteriorated as
the highly competitive mortgage market faced increasing economic and competitive challenges, especially for new market entrants like HouseValues. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge to the intangible assets related to our acquisition of
The Loan Page. Our customer base intangible asset was reduced by $1,449 and developed technology was reduced by $1,527. We made the decision to exit the mortgage lead generation business in January 2007, as discussed in note 4. Accordingly, these
impairment charges are reflected as a component of discontinued operations in the accompanying 2006 statement of operations.

Note 10: Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in
business combinations accounted for under the purchase method. During 2007 and 2006, we recorded additions to goodwill of $3,833, and $681, related to the acquisitions of Realty Generator and Soar Solutions, respectively.

We performed our 2007 annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2007, incorporating information on our recent history of operating losses,
difficult market conditions in the residential real estate market that impacts our near term forecasted operations and cash flows, and the decline in our stock price, particularly in the fourth quarter. As a result we recorded an impairment charge
to goodwill of $3,605 at December 31, 2007.

We performed our 2006 annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2006. The
analysis was performed for both our real estate segment and our mortgage segment using a combination of market prices and discounted cash flows. Our evaluation indicated no impairment in the real estate segment. However, our business outlook for our
mortgage business had deteriorated as the highly competitive mortgage market faced increasing economic and competitive challenges, especially for new market entrants like HouseValues. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge to goodwill of
$3,210 for the goodwill related to our acquisition of The Loan Page. We made the decision to exit the mortgage lead generation business in January 2007.

We have recognized an aggregate of $6,815 of goodwill impairment expense for 2007 and 2006.

Note 12: Self Insurance

We are self insured for our medical and dental coverage and carry two separate stop-loss policies which protect us from any individual claim exceeding $100 for the plan year or when cumulative claims exceed 120% of
expected claims for the plan year. We record estimates of the total cost of claims incurred as of the balance sheet date based on an analysis of historical data and independent actuarial estimates. Our liability for self-insured medical and dental

Our deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to reverse over the next five years, except
for the net operating losses. We believe that based on the decline in the national real estate market, our recent history of operating losses and the lack of carryback periods, it is more likely than not that we will be unable to generate sufficient
taxable income to realize our deferred tax assets. As a result, we have established a valuation allowance for the full amount of our net deferred tax assets.

Included in the summary of deferred tax assets and liabilities are those related to The Loan Page acquisition. The net operating losses generated by The Loan Page prior to the date of acquisition were recognized as
deferred tax assets to the extent they are available to offset our future taxable income. Because of the tax regulations regarding a change in ownership, our use of these net operating losses is limited to $222 annually.

In addition to the deferred tax assets disclosed above, we have excess tax-deductible goodwill related to The Loan Page acquisition that we cannot
recognize as a deferred tax asset to the extent that it exceeds the goodwill we reported for financial reporting purposes. In 2007, the realized tax deductions for that excess tax-deductible goodwill were recorded as a reduction to income tax
expense. During 2006 and 2005, the realized tax deductions for the excess tax-deductible goodwill reduced the carrying amount of goodwill related to the acquisition by $124 and $20, respectively. At December 31, 2007 the balance of the
unamortized excess tax-deductible goodwill was $3,896, which would result in an expected tax benefit of $1,364 applying the 35% statutory rate.

We adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. We did not recognize any adjustments to our financial statements as a result of our implementation of FIN 48. Both at the adoption date of January 1, 2007 and at
December 31, 2007, we did not have any unrecognized tax benefits, nor did we have any interest or penalties accrued. We have concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2004 and state and local taxes for years through 2003.

Note 14: Note Payable

As part of our acquisition of The Loan Page we assumed a note payable with a face amount of $1,680 and a contractual interest rate of 3.55%. Upon acquisition, the note was discounted to a fair value of $1,590 to
reflect an effective yield of 8.2%. The note requires all principal and interest be paid in full on December 22, 2008, a total payment of $2,000. The balance outstanding for this note payable, including accrued interest, was $1,873 at
December 31, 2007.

Note 15: Leases

Our corporate offices in Kirkland, Washington are leased under terms of a noncancelable operating lease. This lease has a six-year term that commenced in December 2004 and includes an option to extend the lease term for five years beyond
the initial commitment period.

In connection with the Kirkland lease, the landlord provided a tenant improvement allowance to cover the
costs of remodeling the space, office furnishings, as well as moving expenses. The allowance of $1,718 has been recorded as deferred rent and is being recognized as rent expense over the initial term of the lease on a straight-line basis.

Our facility lease contain free rent periods and predetermined fixed escalations. We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis and
record the difference between the recognized rental expense and amounts payable under the leases as a deferred liability, which is included as a component of deferred rent on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The following is a schedule by year of future minimum payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms
in excess of one year as of December 31, 2007.

|     |  |   |      

The table does not include rent related to our former Yakima facility. At December 31, 2007,
we had an option to terminate the lease within one year, which option we intended to exercise had we not terminated the lease subsequent to year end, as discussed in note 5.

Rent expense totaled $1,314, $1,311 and $1,027 during 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Note 16: Stock Option Plans and Stock-Based Compensation

Equity Based Award Plans

We issue stock options and restricted stock units to our employees under the terms of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, which became effective on completion
of our initial public offering in December 2004. Our shareholders approved 1,500,000 shares for issuance under this plan. Additionally, 610,109 shares from the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan have been transferred to the 2004 Plan and have or will be
registered under the 2004 Plan. This plan provides for an automatic annual increase in the number of shares on January 1st of each year for the life of the plan starting in 2005, equal to the least of (i) 700,000 shares, (ii) 3% of
the outstanding common stock at the end of the immediately preceding year or (iii) a lesser amount as may be determined by our board of directors.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



Prior to December 15, 2004 we issued options and restricted stock units under the 1999 Plan. The
1999 Plan was terminated on December 15, 2004 with respect to new grants, and no further options will be granted under the 1999 Plan. Unallocated shares created by subsequent cancellations of 610,109 options have been transferred automatically
to the 2004 Plan.

Expense Recognition

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS 123R, which establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services, using the modified prospective transition method. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is
measured at grant date based on the fair value of the award, and expensed over the requisite service period. For prior periods, we applied the intrinsic value method and have not restated prior periods, as permitted by SFAS 123R.

Stock Option Fair Value Determination

Valuation and Recognition Method.We estimate the fair value of stock-based awards granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. We amortize the fair value of all awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service
periods, which are generally the vesting periods.

Expected Life. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time
that they are expected to be outstanding. We determine the expected life based on our limited historical experience and the estimates of other companies similar to ours, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules, pre-vesting
and post-vesting forfeitures and expected employees exercise behavior.

Expected Volatility. We estimate the volatility of our
common stock at the date of grant based on the limited historical volatility of our common stock and the experience of what we believe are peer companies based on the similar nature of our industry and option plan characteristics. We have used a
volatility factor that considers the historical experience of these peer companies using a period commensurate with the expected life of the award.

Risk-Free Interest Rate.We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term equivalent to the expected life of
the award.

Expected Dividend Yield.We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, we use
an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

Expected Forfeitures. We use historical data to
estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures. We record stock-based compensation only for those awards that are expected to vest.

The value of
each employee option granted during 2007, 2006 and 2005 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

Stock Awards

During 2007, we granted restricted stock units to our executives and certain key employees under the 2004 Plan. These stock awards entitle the holder to
shares of common stock as the award vests. Our restricted stock units vest over a two year period for nonexecutives and a three year period for executives. We measure the fair value of restricted stock units based upon the market price of the
underlying common stock on the date of grant, reduced by the present value of future dividends, if any. The restricted stock units are amortized over their applicable vesting period using the straight-line method.

During 2007, the following activity occurred related to our restricted stock units:

Pro Forma Information under SFAS 123 and APB 25

Prior to 2006, we used the intrinsic value method to determine our stock-based compensation. If we had used the fair value method to determine stock-based
compensation, our 2005 net income and earnings per share would have been changed to the following pro forma amounts:

Note 20: B&O Tax Audit Settlement

We were under audit by the Washington State Department of Revenue and had received preliminary assessments asserting that substantially all of our
revenues should be subject to the Washington state business and occupation tax. Through September 2005, we had accrued $2,468 for the estimated cost of the assessment, which was our best estimate of our ultimate liability based on the preliminary
assessment and subsequent negotiations with the Department of Revenue. In December 2005, we reached an agreement with the state to settle the audit for the period from January 2001 through September 2005 for a total of $675. As a result, we reduced
our accrual to the settlement amount and recorded $1,793 as a reduction of general and administrative expenses in 2005.

Note 21: Subsequent Event

On January 23, 2008, we completed a reduction to our workforce of approximately 45 employees. We will incur cash severance charges of
approximately $0.6 million and additional accelerated vesting charges of $0.2 million related to equity compensation in the first quarter of 2008. The cash severance charges will be paid out in 2008.
