Overall rating for 1% Rate Realty
Our expert take:
We strongly recommend considering 1% Rate Realty if you're looking for a full-service support discount real estate brokerage. It received excellent scores for customer satisfaction, pricing & savings, and services & support.
CUSTOMER SCORE 1% Rate Realty's Customer Score is 5.0 out of 5.0 (Limited Data), which is in the top 1% compared to 17 similar companies where it's available and top 1% nationwide. OVERALL RATING Lifetime average rating is 5.0, based on 11 reviews. The total review count falls below our minimum reliability floor of 20 reviews, so the 5.0 average rating may not be a reliable service quality indicator (easily skewed by outliers). RECENCY We consider this review data very fresh. 1 review (9% of all reviews) was posted in the past 6 months. The median review age is well below our "freshness" threshold of 12 months. COMPLAINTS Complaint rate is very low; only a small share of reviews (1–2 star) are complaints, well within our comfort thresholds. TREND 1% Rate Realty averaged 5 in the past 6 months, but across only 1 review — too few to reliably assess trends. INTERPRETATION There's insufficient verified data available to assess current service quality with confidence.
1% Rate Realty has a 5.0 pricing and fees score. This reflects an exceptionally competitive price point and potential savings compared to similar discount brands.

1% Rate Realty has a strong 4.3 track record score. We were able to verify activity dating back at least 3 years, which is about 5 years less than the typical discount real estate broker. 1% Rate Realty has had somewhat inconsistent new monthly activity over its lifespan. This may be due to missing data or indicate a smaller or less active operation, but it’s likely a stable and legitimate business.

Methodology
Clever reviews and rates discount real estate brokers across the U.S. based on four key factors: customer experience, pricing, services, and track record.
Each company’s score reflects a combination of quantitative data (like review trends and pricing structure) and verified service information. We independently assess how well a company delivers value, support, and savings compared to other full-service brokerages in the same market.
Our scoring model weights each factor based on its importance:
- Customer Experience (35%) — Do past clients recommend the company? Are recent reviews positive and consistent?
- Pricing & Fees (30%) — How much does the service cost relative to other brokers? Are there rebates or discounts?
- Services & Support (20%) — Does the company offer the same level of service as a traditional agent? Any extras?
- Track Record (15%) — How long has the company been active, and how steady is their review activity over time?
We regularly update our data and rankings to reflect the most recent information, helping you find the best mix of support and savings for your needs.
