Leaving HomeAdvisor in Oregon?
Your HomeAdvisor Shared-lead marketplace + monthly Pro subscription minimum. setup is probably costing you $16,788/year in lead fees and subscriptions for 48 closed jobs at Oregon's median project values. AskBaily's 12% take-rate on the same volume runs roughly $288,000/year — a $-271,212 annual delta. Here's how $OR CCB-licensed Oregon contractors are migrating.
Oregon licensing fit
AskBaily verifies your Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) credentials live at match-time — not from a self-reported signup form from six months ago. Oregon CCB licensure requires a $20K surety bond (residential general) + $500K general-liability coverage — AskBaily re-verifies bond and policy status at match time.Our matching engine understands this and won't surface a scope outside your license class.
Primary Oregon metro coverage: Portland, Salem, Eugene. Smaller metros have narrower partner pools but still route homeowners to 1 verified match per job.

Can I run AskBaily in parallel with HomeAdvisor before cancelling?
Yes. Recommended 30-90 day pilot. Keep your HomeAdvisor subscription active, apply to AskBaily at /for-pros/recruit/oregon, and compare unit economics. Most Oregon contractors decide within 60 days. AskBaily requires no subscription or lock-in — just 30 days notice in writing if you want to leave.
Which Oregon metros does AskBaily cover?
Primary match density in Portland, Salem, Eugene. We have active partners in every OR zip that passes OR CCB verification, but partner depth varies — the top metros have 5-15+ verified GCs per service category, smaller metros have 1-3. /for-pros/recruit/oregon lists the current Oregon partner count.
What happens to my HomeAdvisor reviews if I migrate?
Reviews left on HomeAdvisor stay on HomeAdvisor — we cannot export them. Contractors migrating typically ask past clients (the ones whose phone numbers they kept) to leave a review on AskBaily after a new project closes. This builds an AskBaily-owned review set rather than borrowing reputation from a platform you're leaving.
How is AskBaily different from just another Shared-lead marketplace + monthly Pro subscription minimum. platform?
AskBaily charges zero lead fees. Zero contact fees. Zero subscriptions. We earn a tiered take-rate (8-15%) only when you close a job — lower tier for higher volume. Read our full fee schedule on /transparency. Our /why-not-shared-leads page explains why the shared-lead model structurally can't align platform + contractor + homeowner incentives, and why exclusive-match is the only fix.
What's the HomeAdvisor (an Angi Inc. brand) cancellation process?
12-month Pro subscription; 30-day cancel but billed through cycle end.. Check your HomeAdvisor agreement for the specific notice window and auto-renewal date. We recommend running AskBaily in parallel during notice to avoid a coverage gap on leads you're already paying for.
