source literacy

What is a source-supported real estate agent profile?

Short answer

A source-supported real estate agent profile is built from submitted information, public profile references, brokerage or agent-owned links, licensing references where available, and editorial notes that can be traced to source fields. It should not rely on copied bios, copied photos, copied reviews, or unsupported claims.
