FAQ

Common questions about Pittsburgh rankings, source records, and community votes.

How are agents selected for Pittsburgh?

Agents are included based on publicly available profile and review data for Pittsburgh. They're ranked by the number of negative reviews on record, with the highest-risk agents listed first.

What does the risk score mean?

The risk score is a simple measure of how many complaints an agent has. For every 10 bad reviews, one point is added to their score, up to a maximum of 10/10. A higher score means more negative client experiences are on record.

Are community votes public?

No. Your vote is completely confidential. We collect your email to verify the submission and prevent abuse, but your name is never requested or shown anywhere on the site.

Can an agent challenge a listing?

Yes. Any agent, or anyone else, can request an investigation if they believe a listing is inaccurate, misleading, or based on a fake review. We review every request and will correct or remove records that don't meet our review policy.
