homeowners in the selection of reputable home service professionals. Our technology delivers objective criteria
as well as convenient digital communication tools to both parties which results in a more effective and efficient
way of conducting commerce. Each Service Professional is rigorously screened as to their Better Business Bureau
standing, current licensing, insurance coverage, years in business and other critical factors in advance of their

scope and urgency before being released to the selected service professionals.

The BestContractors service is based on homeowner choice. Homeowners compare and choose local service professionals
based on detailed, unbiased information and the ratings submitted by the service professionals' previous clients. We
are a one stop resource that eliminates hours of research by homeowners thus helping them choose with confidence and
in short order. It's free, fast and easy and beats a random selection from the yellow pages or doing hours of research
on individual companies by phone or otherwise. BestContractors receives between 20 and 25% of its project requests per
month from homeowners who have used our solution in the past - a statistic that verifies the ease and effectiveness of our
solution.

BestContractors delivers a web-based process management and communication solution to homeowners and their selected
service professionals. Ratings can not be submitted without completing the individual process items and its associated
project. This insures, in most cases, that our service professionals' ratings are authentic and are associated with a
verified request for service- that's why some of our pros may not yet be rated as it takes time. Other services have
little, if any, checks and balances that ensure the authenticity of their service providers' ratings.
