Verification is a starting point, not a transaction guarantee

An approved profile helps establish platform identity, but users must still confirm the agent's authority for the specific property and independently verify documents and payment instructions.

  • Check profile and business name
  • Review current listings
  • Confirm the property mandate
  • Meet or inspect safely
  • Report inconsistent information
