seller protection
Checks that can stop a transaction outright where a seller may not be able to give free and informed consent.
The commercial temptation in motivated-seller acquisition is to convert distress into discount. That route produces complaints, unenforceable contracts and enforcement action.
So the checks here can block rather than warn. A block caps the Deal Score at 35, forces a rejection, fails a hard criterion in every buying mandate, and makes the buyer count zero. Blocks fire on reported capacity concerns, third-party pressure, an elderly seller combined with a large discount, and discounts beyond the review threshold.
Missing answers raise caution rather than passing quietly: absent evidence is a reason to be more careful, never less.
