What counts, and what gets rejected.
How a record gets into the outcomes database, and what we leave off the page.
What counts as a verified deal
A deal is verified when the document that closed it is read against the claim: a settlement statement or closing disclosure for a purchase, an assignment agreement for an assignment, a recorded deed or an executed note for a seller-financed deal. Someone on the SubTo verification team reads it, and the member consents in writing before any of it is published.*
What gets rejected
Three things end a submission. The documents are missing, incomplete, or unreadable. A party to the transaction can't be identified. Or the same deal is submitted twice by two partners on a joint venture, in which case it is counted once or not at all.*
A figure that has cleared this review carries the date of that audit. The community counts on the Proof Hub are labeled with their source and have not been through it.*
What the labels mean
These are the labels the rest of the site cites. Each one states what stands behind a figure, and what doesn't.
VERIFIED PER PUBLISHED METHOD
- The figure cleared the method above, and it carries the date of the audit it cleared as soon as there is one to print. A figure without this line has not been through that review.
VERIFICATION IN PROGRESS · SEE HOW WE VERIFY
- A claim exists and its documents are in the method, but nothing has cleared yet. The figure behind it stays off the page until something does.
RECORD ID · MARKET · DEAL TYPE · DATE REPORTED · DOCUMENTS ON FILE
- The record format in the outcomes database. Each record is one member's report with the documents they uploaded against it. The member is not named. No record carries a price, a spread, a profit, or a revenue figure.
*
- One asterisk means one thing, everywhere on this site: the claim it is attached to has not yet been confirmed by the client. It is not a disclaimer and it is not a hedge. Every asterisked claim is on a list, and the list gets answered.
