Verifying the identity of service providers on CoHostMarket is essential for ensuring trust and safety.

Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:

Check Profile Verification

  • Verified BadgeLook for the "Verified" badge on the service provider's profile. This indicates that CoHostMarket has already verified the service provider's identity and credentials.
  • Airbnb Profile LinkEnsure the service provider has linked their Airbnb profile. This can give you additional insights into their experience and reviews from other platforms.

Read Reviews and Ratings

  • User Reviews: Go through the reviews and ratings provided by other homeowners. Positive reviews and high ratings are indicators of a reliable service provider.
  • Detailed Feedback: Look for detailed feedback that mentions specific experiences and services offered. This helps you understand the quality and reliability of the provider.

Request Additional Information

  • Direct Communication: Use the platform to communicate directly with the service provider. Ask for any additional information you might need, such as references or proof of previous work.
  • Interview: Schedule an interview to ask specific questions and gauge the provider's professionalism and reliability.

Check Credentials and Certifications

  • Documents: Request any relevant credentials or certifications that the service provider may have. This can include property management certifications, cleaning certifications, or other professional qualifications.
  • Verification Documents: Ask for copies of identification documents if necessary. This could be part of your due diligence process to ensure the provider's identity.
