Property Data Qualified (PDQ)
Verified vendor. Verified data. Trusted decisions.
PDQ credentials certify that property data collectors and appraisers meet professional standards for background verification, training, and data quality. When you work with PDQ-credentialed professionals, you can trust the data you receive.
Why PDQ Matters
For too long, property data quality has been taken on faith. Lenders, AMCs, and insurers have had to trust data from collectors they couldn't verify. PDQ changes that by creating a verifiable trust layer for property data professionals.
Background Verified
Every PDQ credential holder passes an annual background verification, ensuring you're working with trusted professionals.
Training Certified
PDQ professionals complete required training modules covering measurement standards, data quality, and compliance requirements.
Quality Monitored
Ongoing quality monitoring ensures PDQ professionals maintain high standards across every property they document.
Instantly Verifiable
Every PDQ badge includes a QR code for instant verification. Scan it to confirm credentials in seconds.
