What's the cost of not checking?

You wouldn't buy a car without checking its history. Why would you hire a contractor, sign a lease, or choose a daycare without checking theirs?

🔨

$14,000 gone

A homeowner paid a roofer half up front. Three active lawsuits and a history of CFPB complaints were already in the public record. $25 would have caught it.

👶

A year of worry

A parent chose a daycare with a clean-looking website. Four state complaints and a license suspension were one search away. $25 would have caught it.

💰

$50,000 mistake

An investor backed a franchise with glowing marketing. Google Reviews told a different story: 2.1 stars and a pattern of fraud allegations. $25 would have caught it.

Two dimensions. One clear picture.

A bad business and a fake business are not the same thing. Every Vett Report evaluates both.
