  • • These fees don't affect your purchase price or service quality
  • • We only partner with providers who meet our strict buyer-first standards
  • • Full transparency—we'll always disclose any referral relationships

Our Promise: We will never recommend a service provider based on referral fees. All recommendations are made solely based on quality, value, and what's best for you as the buyer.
