No agency relationship is created solely by submitting a request, receiving a telephone call, or receiving an introduction.

How Will I Be Contacted?
By submitting a request, you agree that Own Luxury Homes® and the local real estate agent, REALTOR®, broker, or brokerage connected with your request may contact you by phone, email, or text regarding your $1M+ home decision.
Consent is not a condition of purchase. Message and data rates may apply. You may opt out of marketing communications at any time. Additional jurisdiction-specific notices may apply.
Is Private Guidance the Same as Off-Market Real Estate?
No.
Private guidance means that your goals, property, market, timing, intended use, and preferred process are considered before the next step is selected.
It does not promise off-market inventory, private listing exposure, or a confidential sale.
The appropriate next step may involve a local real estate connection, direct brokerage services where authorized, additional guidance, or another applicable service path.

Does Own Luxury Homes® Rank Real Estate Agents?
No.
Own Luxury Homes® is not a public agent-ranking directory and does not present a list based simply on advertising placement, review counts, name recognition, or broad production claims.
The purpose is to provide a more considered beginning based on your goals, the property, market, timing, intended use, and local expertise relevant to the decision.
Can I Decline the Introduction?
Yes.
You remain free to evaluate the local professional or brokerage, ask questions, review disclosures, understand the proposed brokerage relationship, review compensation arrangements, and decide whether to proceed.
There is no obligation to enter into a representation agreement or use the professional introduced.
Does Submitting a Request Create an Agency Relationship?
No.
Submitting a request, receiving a telephone call, or receiving an introduction does not by itself create an agency relationship, representation agreement, or obligation to move forward.
Any brokerage relationship or representation agreement must be established separately in accordance with applicable law and the requirements of the relevant jurisdiction.
What Does “Best Possible Real Estate Expert” Mean?
It means Own Luxury Homes® works to identify local real estate expertise relevant to your goals, property, market, intended use, timing, and decision ahead.
The relevant professional may be a real estate agent, broker, REALTOR®, or brokerage, depending on the jurisdiction and circumstances.
The phrase does not mean that one professional is objectively best for every client or transaction. It describes the company’s goal of making a considered local connection based on the information available.
What If I Am Buying or Selling Outside My Current State?
A national brokerage perspective may be useful when your decision crosses state lines.
You may be relocating, purchasing a second home, selling an investment property, evaluating a destination market, or coordinating a sale and purchase in different locations.
Own Luxury Homes® considers your goals, the property, target market, timing, intended use, and local expertise required, then works to connect you with the best possible real estate expert in the relevant local market.
Licensing, brokerage relationships, disclosures, compensation, and representation depend on the applicable jurisdiction and transaction.

Own Luxury Homes® provides private guidance and real estate services through applicable brokerage structures, locally licensed real estate professionals, and independently operated brokerages, as appropriate by jurisdiction.
Brokerage relationships, representation, disclosures, compensation, licensing requirements, and service structures vary by jurisdiction and transaction.
Meeting or speaking with a local real estate professional does not create an agency relationship, representation agreement, or obligation to move forward.
Legal, tax, financial, insurance, construction, engineering, environmental, zoning, land-use, and other specialized questions should be directed to appropriately licensed professionals.
The phrase “best possible real estate expert” should be supported by a consistent internal process for evaluating client goals, property type, market, experience, timing, intended use, and other relevant information. Advertising claims should remain truthful, nondeceptive, and evidence-based.
