CUSTOMER SCORE DFWCityHomes's Customer Score is 5.0 out of 5.0 (Excellent), which is in the top 1% compared to 15 similar companies in Dallas and top 50% nationwide. OVERALL RATING Lifetime average rating is 4.8, based on 182 reviews. 182 total reviews is a very solid sample size, signaling that the 4.8 average rating is an accurate service quality indicator. RECENCY We consider this review data somewhat fresh. 4 reviews (2% of all reviews) were 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. 1 complaint was posted in the past 6 months. TREND The company's recent average rating (4) shows a concerning decline compared to its all-time average (4.8). INTERPRETATION Very solid evidence indicates historically excellent customer experiences and outcomes. Recent reviews suggest a slight downtick. Confidence in this assessment is based on the available review data.
DFWCityHomes has a 3.5 pricing and fees score. This suggests mediocre pricing and potential savings compared to other discount brands in the same markets.

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.
