HouseBrief — Terms of Use

Effective date: 2026-04-19.

1. Definitions

2. Eligibility

3. No real estate brokerage, agency, or fiduciary relationship

Using HouseBrief does not create a brokerage, agency, listing, or fiduciary relationship between you and HouseBrief, the Acquisition Entity, or any affiliate. We do not owe you duties of an agent, broker, fiduciary, or advisor under any U.S. state's real estate laws. If we make an offer, we act solely as a principal buyer for our own interest. You are not our client. You are free to decline any offer, negotiate it, or seek advice from your own attorney, tax professional, real estate licensee, or financial advisor before accepting or signing anything.

4. Submission does not create a contract

Submitting information about a property creates no purchase contract, no option contract, no right of first refusal, no binding offer, no commitment to close, and no commitment to pay anything. Any purchase agreement must be a separate written document signed by both you and the Acquisition Entity.

5. Right to evaluate, follow up, or pass

We may, in our sole and absolute discretion:

A cash offer is not a guarantee of purchase. It is a time-limited, written proposal that remains subject to inspections, title review, and other due-diligence contingencies as stated in the offer itself.

6. Assignment of contract rights

If you and the Acquisition Entity enter into a written purchase agreement, the Acquisition Entity is the principal buyer under that agreement, not a broker or agent for anyone else. Depending on the circumstances and applicable state and local law, the Acquisition Entity may: (a) close the purchase itself; (b) assign its rights under the purchase agreement to a third party for an assignment fee, with that assignment disclosed to you in the purchase agreement (including "and/or assigns" language on the buyer signature line); or (c) close the purchase itself and then resell the property to a third party in a separate transaction (a "double-closing"). The Acquisition Entity will not assign any purchase agreement where state or local law prohibits or meaningfully restricts assignment without a real-estate license; in those states, option (a) or (c) will be used instead. Closing, regardless of which path is taken, remains subject to the terms of the purchase agreement.

7. Content license

You retain ownership of the photos, documents, and text you provide. By submitting them, you grant HouseBrief and the Acquisition Entity a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, copy, store, display, and process that content solely for: (a) evaluating your Submission; (b) preparing and negotiating a potential offer; (c) performing due diligence; (d) maintaining internal records required by law or reasonable business practice; and (e) sharing with contracted service providers (title, legal, inspection, insurance) when we are actively pursuing a purchase. We do not use your content for advertising, will not sell it, and will not publicly display it.

8. Your representations

You represent and warrant that:

9. Data practices

Data practices are described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. In summary: we do not sell personal information, we do not run behavioral advertising, we do not use third-party tracking SDKs, and we retain submission records for audit purposes. You may request deletion from the app (Settings → Delete account), in which case your contact information is removed and submissions are anonymized to the extent consistent with our legal recordkeeping obligations.

10. Free to use

The HouseBrief iOS app is free to download and use. There is no subscription, no commission, no success fee, no service charge, and no seller fee. We do not take a percentage of any transaction.

11. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

12. Disclaimers

HouseBrief is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be error-free, uninterrupted, or secure. Availability of offers depends on the property, market, title review, state eligibility, and the Acquisition Entity's then-current buy-box.

Nothing in the HouseBrief app or these Terms constitutes real-estate, legal, financial, tax, or investment advice. You should consult your own qualified professionals before signing any purchase agreement or making a financial decision.

13. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither HouseBrief nor the Acquisition Entity, nor any of their affiliates, officers, employees, or agents, will be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any lost profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, arising out of or in connection with your use of the app. Our aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the app or these Terms will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).

14. Dispute resolution — binding arbitration; class-action waiver

Please read this Section carefully. You and HouseBrief each agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and HouseBrief (or the Acquisition Entity) arising out of or relating to the app or these Terms — including any questions of arbitrability — will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The arbitration will take place in the state of the Acquisition Entity's principal place of business, unless you and HouseBrief agree otherwise or applicable law requires a different location.

You and HouseBrief waive any right to a jury trial and any right to participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration. Small-claims-court actions remain available for any qualifying claim.

You may opt out of this arbitration provision by emailing us within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name, email associated with your account, and that you wish to opt out. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration provision is null and void and disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts described in Section 15.

15. Governing law; venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the state where the Acquisition Entity is organized, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and HouseBrief consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in that state.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be announced in the app. Continued use of the app after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. The "Effective date" at the top of this document reflects the latest change.

IMPORTANT: these Terms are a best-effort draft

This document was drafted in good faith by the HouseBrief team using patterns common in U.S. principal-buyer, iBuyer, and we-buy-houses Terms of Use. It has not been reviewed by licensed real-estate counsel in any specific state. Before accepting a single real submission or sending a real offer in any state, the Acquisition Entity must have these Terms — especially Sections 3, 6, 14, and 15 — reviewed by counsel licensed in that state. Wholesaling and assignment laws vary by state and a few states (Illinois, Oklahoma, Kansas, and others) have recently tightened them. This document is not legal advice.
