Homes for Heroes Program

Hi all - 

Are any of you real estate agents and affiliated with Homes for Heroes? If so, what do you think of it? On one side, it seems to involve a decent amount of expenses/high cut out of the agents profit. However, it's also a way to give back to the teachers/first responders and could be a good marketing tool. We're primarily curious as to whether or not you saw your lead number increase after actively marketing yourself as being associated with the program, if the client-side process is streamline when receiving their rebate, and if there are any other headaches we may not be considering?

I've considered this since I'm a retired veteran. I think you have to give up 30% of your commission, which is a big chunk. However, they provide the leads and claim agents get an average of four sales a year. It may be a good way to serve this community and differentiate yourself from other agents. I just don't do enough sales to make it worth my time.
