Terms and Conditions

1. About Us

This website is operated by Katina Benenate, a licensed real estate agent in Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia affiliated with Compass. We provide real estate information and services for the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area.

2. No Guarantee of Accuracy

We work to keep property listings, pricing, and market information accurate and current, but we do not guarantee it. Listings may be sold, withdrawn, or changed without notice. Property details are often sourced from third parties (including the MLS) and should be independently verified before you rely on them.

3. Not Professional Advice

Content on this site is for general informational purposes only and is not legal, financial, tax, or investment advice. Real estate transactions are significant decisions—please consult qualified professionals (attorney, lender, tax advisor, home inspector) before acting.

4. No Agency Relationship

Using this website or contacting us does not create a brokerage or agency relationship. A working relationship is established only through a signed written agreement, as required by Maryland law.

5. Fair Housing

We are committed to the principles of the Fair Housing Act and equal opportunity housing. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, or any other protected class under federal, state, or local law.

6. Third-Party Links

Our site may link to third-party websites (lenders, listing platforms, calculators). We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of those sites and provide the links for convenience only.

7. Intellectual Property

All content on this site—text, logos, graphics, and listing presentations created by us—is our property or used with permission and may not be copied or reused without written consent. MLS/IDX listing data remains the property of its respective owners.

8. Your Use of the Site

11. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes will be handled in the courts of Maryland or the District of Columbia.
