Terms of Service
These terms cover how you use realtorpeterlaw.com. Nothing here is legal advice — it just sets the ground rules for the site, its content, and the trademarks used on it.
Acceptance of terms
By visiting or using realtorpeterlaw.com (the "Site"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site. The Site is owned and operated by Peter Law, Sales Representative at HomeLife Golconda Realty Inc., Brokerage ("we", "us", "our"), and is registered with the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO).
Use of the site
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of, restrict, or inhibit anyone else's use of the Site. Prohibited behaviour includes but is not limited to:
- Attempting to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its server, or any connected system.
- Scraping, harvesting, or otherwise collecting information about other users.
- Uploading or transmitting viruses, malware, or other harmful code.
- Copying, reselling, or republishing any Site content without written permission.
- Using the Site to distribute spam or unsolicited commercial content.
Intellectual property & photos
All original content on the Site — including but not limited to written articles, blog posts, guides, calculators, page layouts, illustrations, and code — is the property of Peter Law and is protected by Canadian and international copyright laws. You may view, share, and link to Site pages for personal, non-commercial use. You may not reproduce, republish, redistribute, or use the content for commercial purposes without prior written consent.
Photos and property images displayed on the Site (including images in "Recent", "Past Deals", and blog posts) are used with the permission of the photographer, seller, brokerage, or platform that supplied them, and remain the copyright of their respective owners. If you believe an image on the Site has been used without proper authorization, please contact us with the URL and a brief description; we will investigate and, where appropriate, remove the image promptly.
REALTOR® and MLS® trademarks
The trademarks REALTOR®, REALTORS®, and the REALTOR® logo are controlled by The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) and identify real estate professionals who are members of CREA. The trademarks MLS®, Multiple Listing Service®, and the associated logos are owned by CREA and identify the quality of services provided by real estate professionals who are members of CREA. These trademarks are used on the Site under license. Any bare mention of "MLS", "realtor", or "realtors" on the Site refers to these registered marks.
Peter Law is a Sales Representative registered with the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO) and operates under the Brokerage of HomeLife Golconda Realty Inc.
No professional advice
The Site provides general information about the Ontario and Toronto real estate market, government programs, tax rebates, and related topics. This information is not legal, tax, financial, mortgage, appraisal, or professional advice. Real estate rules, tax rates, and government programs change often — sometimes between the time an article is written and the time you read it. Always verify current details with the appropriate professional (a real estate lawyer, tax accountant, mortgage broker, appraiser, or the relevant government agency) before making a decision. See the Disclaimer for full details on how to read Site content.
Reading the Site or contacting us through it does not create a client relationship, an agency relationship, or any fiduciary duty. A client relationship is only formed once a written representation agreement is signed.
Service commitments & turnaround
Where the Site mentions a service turnaround (for example, "Free Home Evaluation delivered within 48 hours", "response within one business day", or a scheduled call time), those are service targets that we work hard to meet — they are not guarantees. Delays can happen for reasons outside our control (system outages, weekends and holidays, high inquiry volume, or the need to gather more information from you).
A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) or "home evaluation" produced by Peter is an opinion of value based on recent comparable sales and market data available at the time. It is not an appraisal within the meaning of the Appraisal Institute of Canada's Canadian Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (CUSPAP) or any equivalent standard, and should not be used for financing, legal, or tax purposes that require a formal appraisal.
Brokerage & licensing status
Peter Law is a Sales Representative registered with the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO) and operates under HomeLife Golconda Realty Inc., Brokerage. Any reference on the Site to future licensing status, education, or professional milestones (for example, "pursuing broker license") describes intent and is accurate as of the Site's last-updated date; it is not a representation of current status. RECO's public registrant search remains the authoritative source for a real estate professional's current licence and registration standing.
Third-party links & embeds
The Site links to and embeds third-party services and websites (government pages, industry associations, service providers, tenant-screening providers, video platforms, scheduling widgets, newsletter platforms, news sources). We include them for your convenience. We do not control, endorse, or take responsibility for the content, accuracy, or privacy practices of those websites and platforms. Your use of any third-party site is governed by that site's own terms. In some cases we may receive a referral fee for directing a client to a third-party service — see the Disclaimer for details.
Limitation of liability
The Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranty of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Peter Law and HomeLife Golconda Realty Inc. will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or its content — including reliance on any information, calculator output, market data, past-deal reference, or third-party link found on the Site.
Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when the most recent change was made. Your continued use of the Site after any change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in Ontario. Any dispute arising from these Terms or from your use of the Site will be handled in the courts of Ontario.
