What we check on every buyer

Google shows a star average. We show the story behind it.

  • Review history by year

    Whether a buyer's recent reviews are rising or slipping, and whether it has gone quiet.

  • Replies to unhappy sellers

    How often the company answers its 1 and 2 star reviews.

  • Time in business

    When the company's website was registered, or its first Google review if earlier.

  • Brand networks

    Other brand names sharing the same phone number or street address.

  • BBB and Yelp

    Hand-checked BBB grades, plus Yelp ratings where the Yelp page clearly matches the company.

  • What they promise

    Claims from the company's own website, like "close in 7 days", labeled as claims.

441 listed websites weren't working when we checked, and we say so on the profile.

How it works

A 0–100 score, every point explained

Read the full method

A company needs at least 5 Google reviews to get a score. Fewer shows “Not enough data”, which is never counted against it. Companies can't pay to change any part of the score.
