Terms and Conditions

1. Agreement and scope

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) apply to Simply List's website, customer dashboard, forms, communications, and online tools (collectively, the “Services”). “Simply List,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the Simply List Georgia real estate brokerage.

By accessing or using the Services, creating an account, submitting a listing, or purchasing a service, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

2. Brokerage relationship and service scope

Visiting the website, requesting information, or starting an online form does not by itself create a brokerage or agency relationship. A brokerage relationship begins only as stated in an executed agreement with Simply List.

Simply List offers different service levels. A plan designed for seller independence may require the seller to handle pricing decisions, inquiries, offers, negotiations, documents, deadlines, and other transaction responsibilities. A plan with additional broker assistance includes only the services stated in the applicable agreement. Optional services require separate selection and may involve additional terms or fees.

We are a Georgia real estate brokerage, not a law firm, accounting firm, tax adviser, engineer, inspector, appraiser, surveyor, or environmental consultant. Information and forms made available through the Services are not a substitute for advice from an appropriately licensed professional.

3. Eligibility, authority, and accounts

• You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering a binding agreement.
• You represent that the information you submit is accurate and that you have authority to act for the owner or other person identified in the submission.
• You are responsible for safeguarding login links, passwords, access codes, and devices used to reach the customer dashboard.
• You must notify us promptly of suspected unauthorized access or incorrect account information.
• You may not use another person's identity, account, signature, payment method, listing, or documents without authorization.

You consent to receive transaction and service communications electronically and to use electronic records and signatures where permitted. You are responsible for maintaining a working email address and compatible device. Promotional communications remain subject to the choices described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Plans, fees, payment, and changes

Current plan descriptions may be viewed on our Pricing page. Prices, included services, third-party charges, eligibility requirements, and promotional offers may change before you enter an agreement. Your signed agreement and accepted order control the fees and services for your listing.

You authorize us and our payment providers to process amounts that you approve or owe under an applicable order or agreement. Depending on the service, fees may be due upfront, when a property is leased, at closing, when a listing is withdrawn or terminated, or upon another event described in the agreement.

Refunds, credits, cancellations, earned fees, and unpaid amounts are governed by the applicable order and signed agreement. A property failing to sell, lease, appraise, receive showings, or receive an acceptable offer does not by itself create a right to a refund unless the applicable agreement expressly provides one.

Real estate brokerage compensation is fully negotiable. It is not fixed, controlled, recommended, or suggested by law, an MLS, or an association of REALTORS®. Any compensation offered to or requested by another broker is subject to the applicable agreement and the parties' negotiation.

5. Customer and seller responsibilities

You are responsible for reviewing all information and documents before approval or signature and for promptly correcting errors. You agree to:

• provide complete, current, and truthful ownership, property, listing, disclosure, showing, and transaction information;
• comply with fair housing, anti-discrimination, advertising, disclosure, safety, and other applicable laws;
• avoid discriminatory language, false or misleading claims, unauthorized content, contact information prohibited by MLS rules, and instructions that create safety or legal risks;
• protect keys, lockboxes, alarm and gate codes, showing instructions, occupied-property information, and confidential documents;
• monitor the dashboard and communications, meet deadlines, obtain needed professional advice, and respond to buyers, brokers, and Simply List as required by the selected plan;
• verify measurements, schools, zoning, permits, boundaries, utilities, association information, taxes, property condition, and other material facts; and
• promptly tell us about changes affecting availability, price, status, ownership, occupancy, showings, contracts, or closing.

We may refuse, pause, edit, remove, or require correction of material that appears inaccurate, unlawful, unsafe, discriminatory, infringing, inconsistent with an agreement, or noncompliant with MLS or platform rules.

6. Fair housing and nondiscrimination

Simply List supports Equal Housing Opportunity. You may not use the Services to discriminate or express a preference, limitation, or exclusion in a housing-related advertisement, showing, negotiation, offer process, or transaction because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.

We may reject, revise, pause, or remove content or instructions that create a fair housing concern and may decline or terminate service when permitted by an agreement and law. Customers may not instruct Simply List, cooperating brokers, showing services, or transaction participants to engage in unlawful discrimination. See our Fair Housing page and the official HUD fair housing resource.

7. MLS publication and listing distribution

When you approve publication, listing information may be submitted to FMLS, GAMLS, cooperating brokers, showing services, consumer real estate websites, search engines, data feeds, and other recipients permitted by the listing agreement and your distribution selections.

Distribution, display, correction, removal, and timing are partly controlled by third parties. We cannot guarantee that every website will display a listing, display every field correctly, update immediately, preserve photo order or formatting, generate a particular number of views or inquiries, or remove all copies after a status change. Some listing and sale information may remain available through MLS history, public records, broker systems, archives, or other lawful sources.

We do not guarantee a sale or lease, a particular price, appraisal, closing date, search ranking, website placement, number of showings, buyer response, or transaction outcome.

Any savings, commission comparison, home value, fee example, market statistic, performance figure, or financial illustration on the website is an estimate or historical example based on stated or assumed facts. Actual results vary, and past performance does not guarantee a future result. Independently verify figures that matter to your decision.

9. Acceptable use

You may not attempt to disrupt or bypass security; access another user's information; upload malware; scrape or harvest personal information; reverse engineer the Services; interfere with website operation; impersonate another person; use automated systems in a manner that burdens the Services; or use the Services for fraud, harassment, discrimination, infringement, or any unlawful purpose.

We may suspend or terminate access when reasonably necessary to protect customers, the public, Simply List, an MLS, a vendor, or the integrity of the Services. Suspension of website access does not eliminate obligations under a signed agreement.

10. Third-party services and links

The Services may depend on or link to independently operated MLS systems, showing platforms, e-signature providers, payment processors, email providers, analytics and advertising services, real estate websites, and other vendors. Their availability, terms, privacy practices, and performance are outside our direct control. A link or integration does not mean we endorse every statement, product, or practice of the third party.

11. Intellectual property and copyright concerns

Except for customer content and third-party material, the Services—including website design, text, graphics, logos, software, workflows, and compilations—are owned by or licensed to Simply List and protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. These Terms provide a limited, revocable right to use the Services for their intended purpose; they do not transfer ownership.

If you believe material displayed through the Services infringes your copyright, send a written notice to Listings@SimplyListAtlanta.com identifying the copyrighted work, the material at issue and its location, your contact information, a statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized, a statement under penalty of perjury that the notice is accurate and you are authorized to act, and your physical or electronic signature. We may remove or restrict challenged material while reviewing a properly submitted notice.

12. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the website and online tools are provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation, compatibility with every device, or the accuracy of third-party data, public records, automated calculations, website estimates, or information supplied by other users or transaction participants.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Simply List and its owners, brokers, personnel, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or for lost profits, lost opportunities, lost data, or business interruption arising from the website or online tools.

For a claim arising solely from the website or online tools and not governed by a separate signed agreement, our aggregate liability will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us specifically for the affected online service during the six months before the event giving rise to the claim or $100. Limitations in a signed agreement control claims arising from brokerage or transaction services. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

13. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Simply List and its owners, brokers, personnel, and service providers from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising from content or information you submit; your violation of these Terms or applicable law; your infringement of another person's rights; or your unauthorized use of an account, property, photograph, document, signature, or payment method. This section does not apply to the extent a claim was caused by the party seeking indemnification.

14. Governing law and general terms

Georgia law governs these Terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any court proceeding concerning these website Terms that is not controlled by another signed agreement must be brought in a state or federal court with jurisdiction in Cobb County, Georgia, and each party consents to that venue and jurisdiction.

If a provision is found unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our written consent. We may transfer these Terms in connection with a business reorganization or transfer.

Sections concerning intellectual property, content licenses, fees owed, disclaimers, liability limitations, indemnification, governing law, and provisions that by their nature should continue will survive termination. Electronic copies and records may be used as originals to the extent permitted by law.

15. Changes to the Services or Terms

We may modify the website, online tools, or these Terms. Revised Terms become effective when posted with an updated effective date, unless a later date is stated. Changes do not rewrite a previously signed agreement unless that agreement permits the change or the parties agree in writing.
