TERMS OF SERVICE

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By engaging Discount Agent ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") for real estate services, you ("Client," "you," or "your") acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Discount Agent. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use our services.

Your use of our services, whether through direct contact, submission of information, or execution of a listing agreement, constitutes your acceptance of these Terms. These Terms apply to all users of our services, including without limitation sellers, prospective clients, and website visitors.

2. SERVICE DESCRIPTION

Discount Agent provides lower-cost, full-service real estate representation designed to save homeowners money on real estate transactions. Our services include:

Discount Listing Representation: We offer professional listing services at reduced commission rates compared to traditional real estate brokerages, while maintaining comprehensive representation throughout the transaction process.

Full-Service Seller Support: Our complete seller support includes property marketing, listing management, showing coordination, offer negotiation, transaction oversight, and guidance through closing. We provide the same level of service as traditional agents while reducing your costs.

Cost-Saving Transaction Strategy: We develop and implement strategies designed to minimize your expenses while maximizing the effectiveness of your property sale, including pricing analysis, marketing optimization, and negotiation tactics.

The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of our services at any time with reasonable notice to active clients. Services are provided subject to execution of a separate listing agreement, buyer representation agreement, or other applicable real estate contract, which will govern specific terms of the representation relationship.

3. USER OBLIGATIONS

As a client or prospective client of Discount Agent, you agree to:

Provide accurate, current, and complete information about yourself and your property during the engagement process and throughout our representation. You acknowledge that decisions and strategies will be based on information you provide.

Respond promptly to communications from our agents and staff regarding showings, offers, counteroffers, and other time-sensitive matters related to your transaction.

Grant reasonable access to your property for showings, inspections, appraisals, and other necessary activities related to the sale process, in accordance with the terms of any listing agreement.

Maintain your property in showing condition and comply with all disclosure requirements under applicable real estate laws and regulations.

Refrain from misusing our services, interfering with the proper operation of our business, or engaging in any conduct that could damage our reputation or business relationships.

Comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations related to real estate transactions, including fair housing laws and disclosure requirements.

Pay all agreed-upon fees, commissions, and charges in accordance with the payment terms specified in your listing agreement or other service contract.

You acknowledge that failure to fulfill these obligations may impact our ability to effectively represent you and may constitute grounds for termination of our representation agreement in accordance with its terms.

4. APPOINTMENT SCHEDULING AND CANCELLATIONS

Initial consultations and appointments with Discount Agent may be scheduled through email contact at Emily.Morgan@discountagent.info or through other communication methods we may make available.

We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your scheduling preferences and provide timely service. However, we cannot guarantee availability at specific times and may need to reschedule appointments due to conflicts, emergencies, or other professional obligations.

If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, we request that you provide at least 24 hours advance notice whenever possible. While we do not charge cancellation fees for consultation appointments, repeated cancellations without notice may result in limitations on future appointment availability.

For property showings, open houses, and other scheduled events after a listing agreement is executed, cancellation and rescheduling procedures will be governed by the terms of that agreement and professional standards applicable to active listings.

Time is often of the essence in real estate transactions. You agree to make yourself reasonably available for communications, appointments, and decision-making as necessary to effectively complete your transaction within required timeframes.

5. PAYMENT TERMS

Commission rates and fee structures for Discount Agent services will be specified in your listing agreement, buyer representation agreement, or other applicable service contract. Our reduced-rate commission structure is a key feature of our cost-saving approach.

Unless otherwise specified in your service agreement, commissions and fees are earned and become due at closing of the real estate transaction. Payment is typically made from closing proceeds in accordance with standard real estate settlement procedures.

If a transaction fails to close due to client default, withdrawal without justification, or other reasons specified in the applicable service agreement, you may be responsible for fees or charges as outlined in that agreement.

You are responsible for all costs and expenses related to your property and transaction that are not specifically assumed by Discount Agent in your service agreement, including but not limited to repairs, staging, professional photography beyond what we provide, title insurance, closing costs, and any other customary seller expenses.

Any disputes regarding commission or fees will be addressed in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions in your service agreement and these Terms.

6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Discount Agent and its officers, employees, agents, and affiliated brokers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to our services, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, loss of opportunity, or damages resulting from delays in selling your property.

Our total aggregate liability for any claims arising from or related to our services shall not exceed the amount of commission or fees actually paid to us by you for the specific transaction giving rise to the claim.

We are not liable for:

Actions or omissions of third parties, including but not limited to buyers, buyer agents, inspectors, appraisers, lenders, title companies, contractors, or other parties involved in your transaction.

Market conditions, property value fluctuations, or failure to sell your property at a desired price or within a desired timeframe.

Inaccuracies in information you provide or in public records, multiple listing service data, or other third-party information sources.

Damages resulting from your failure to follow our advice or recommendations, or from decisions you make regarding pricing, repairs, negotiations, or other transaction matters.

Technical difficulties, website outages, communication failures, or other technological issues beyond our reasonable control.

This limitation of liability reflects the allocation of risk between the parties and the reduced commission structure of our services. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain liability limitations, so some of these limitations may not apply to you to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

7. WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS

DISCOUNT AGENT SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Real estate transactions involve numerous variables beyond our control, including market conditions, buyer preferences, financing availability, inspection results, and economic factors. While we will use our professional skill and judgment to represent your interests, we cannot guarantee specific outcomes.

We make no representations or warranties regarding the condition, value, marketability, or legal status of any property. You are responsible for conducting your own due diligence and obtaining professional inspections, appraisals, and legal advice as you deem appropriate.

No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained from Discount Agent or through our services shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.

8. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms and any disputes arising from or related to our services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction where the subject property is located, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms shall be brought exclusively in courts of competent jurisdiction in the location where the property is situated, and the parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

For matters not specific to a particular property, the laws of the jurisdiction where our business operations are principally conducted shall apply.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid under applicable law, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Nothing in these Terms shall be construed to limit or waive any rights or remedies available under applicable real estate licensing laws or consumer protection statutes.
