For Designated Brokers

Your supervisory duty just got documented.

Under state designated broker supervisory requirements, the designated broker has personal responsibility for the active supervision of every transaction. When a regulator audits a file or a complaint comes in, the question is always: what did the broker do to prevent this?

Every check an agent runs in HFD is timestamped, attributable, and exportable. That's a contemporaneous record of supervisory activity — the documented protocol that turns a complaint from "what did you do?" into "here's the log."

HFD does not eliminate broker liability. It documents the supervisory protocol that makes a defensible record. Members are responsible for independent verification of every transaction.
The Free Tier

Eight tools. Built for an agent's actual day.

No credit card. No trial clock. The wire-fraud check and the audit log are unlimited because they can never be the reason an agent didn't run them.

Fraud Awareness Notice

Unlimited · always free

Deliver a written fraud-awareness notice to every client at the start of a transaction, with a timestamped Protection Record showing exactly when it was sent. The documentation E&O carriers and brokers want to see.

Wire Safety Checklist

Unlimited · always free

Run any closing email or wire message through an AI red-flag scan before your buyer hits send. Wire fraud at closing is the #1 agent-driven loss vector in 2026 — this can never be the reason an agent skipped a check.

Pre-Showing Safety Check

Unlimited

Verify the identity and listing affiliation of the person you're meeting at a vacant or lockbox showing. Documented in your activity log so the brokerage can demonstrate the protocol was run.

Buyer-Lead Authenticity Scan

Unlimited

Paste any inbound buyer inquiry, cash-offer email, or unfamiliar wholesaler text. Catches the fake-cash-buyer phishing wave that's wasted thousands of agent-hours statewide.

Property Search & County Records

Unlimited

Pull owner of record, deed history, recorded liens, and live listings cross-check on any AZ property in seconds. Goes deeper than your MLS — sourced directly from county.

Contact Lookup

Unlimited · always free

Verify the title officer, lender, co-op agent, or counterparty's phone is real and tied to who they claim. Stops the lookalike-domain and number-spoof attacks.

Documented Activity Log

Unlimited · always free

Every check you run is timestamped and exportable. This is what gives your designated broker the supervisory record ADRE wants to see if a complaint or audit comes in.

Mobile App (iOS + Android)

Included

Run any of the above from your phone between showings. Audit log syncs to your account.
