SafeScore for Real Estate

Buyers ask the safety question
on every deal.
Agents can't answer it. The data can.

Under the Fair Housing Act, agents cannot characterize neighborhood safety. SafeScore gives agents a federally sourced, defensible answer they can hand to the client — data, not opinion. 60 seconds. $1.99 per report.

78% of homebuyers rank safety as their #1 must-have — above school ratings, square footage, and bedrooms
11 federal data categories per address — FBI, FEMA, EPA, USGS, NHTSA and more
<60s from address entry to full Intel Report PDF — no account required
$1.99 per report, or $1/agent/month bundled through an MLS or brokerage

The problem

Every agent gets asked.
Almost none can answer.

"Is this neighborhood safe?" It comes up on nearly every buyer transaction. Under the Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. § 3604) and NAR Code of Ethics Article 10, agents cannot characterize neighborhood safety — even when the buyer is asking directly. The standard response is silence. That silence costs deals, erodes trust, and leaves buyers making the most significant financial decision of their lives without the information they're asking for.

The old way

Agent says nothing

Buyer senses the avoidance. Trust erodes. Some walk from the deal. Others buy and feel misled when they later find crime data on their own.

The old way

Agent characterizes the area

Any characterization tied to a protected class — even unintentionally — creates Fair Housing Act exposure. The risk is real. The liability is documented.

The SafeScore way

Agent shares a SafeScore link

The buyer runs the score themselves. Federal data. No agent opinion. No steering exposure. The safety question is answered — completely and defensibly.

Fair Housing compliance

Built to operate inside
Fair Housing law.

SafeScore was designed with the Fair Housing Act in mind. Every data point is sourced exclusively from federal government agencies — FBI, FEMA, EPA, USGS, NHTSA. No racial or demographic data. No neighborhood characterization. No crowdsourced opinion. The score reflects what happened at an address — not who lives there.

The agent's role is simply to share the link. The buyer generates the report themselves. The agent is not in the chain of characterization — that's the design.

How agents use it

Three use cases. One tool.

Use case 01

Buyer packets

Drop the Intel Report into the buyer packet alongside the inspection report. Clients get something to hold — federal data, scored and sourced — not just the agent's word or a Google search.

Use case 02

Listing prep

Run SafeScore on the listing before it goes live. Know what buyers will find before they ask. Score competing listings to show the relative location advantage of your property.

Use case 03

Out-of-state buyers

Relocation buyers can't drive the neighborhood. SafeScore gives them an objective, government-sourced view of every shortlisted address before a single offer is written — from anywhere in the country.
