Frequently asked questions

Everything about Payotte

Is it really free?

Yes. Payotte is free for visitors, with no ads and no referral commissions. No spot can be bought.

How is each sector's expert chosen?

Every professional — REALTOR® or real estate agent, mortgage broker, home inspector, real estate lawyer, appraiser — is scored out of 100: Google reviews, years of experience, a provincial licence checked on the public register (the verification status is shown on every profile), local presence and distinctions. The highest-rated in each sector is selected.

What if no expert is verified in my sector?

If no candidate meets the quality threshold with verifiable data, the listing shows "not available" rather than an unreliable recommendation. Sectors fill in as verifications are completed.

I'm a professional — how do I get listed?

Get in touch through the Contact page. Listing is based solely on verifiable results, never on payment.

Are you the expert in your sector?

Payotte lists only one verified professional per sector, chosen on merit — never on a subscription. Their verified profile is built to be cited by Google and AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity) as the reference for their sector. Think you're the top reference in your neighbourhood?
