Terms of Service
These Terms of Service govern your use of the Joe Homebuyer website, deal pages, buyer list forms, inquiry tools, communications, and related services.
1. Acceptance of These Terms
By accessing or using this website, submitting any form, joining the buyers list, requesting a walkthrough, making or receiving an offer, or otherwise using our services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the site or the Services.
You represent that you are at least 18 years old, are using the Services for business and investment purposes, and have authority to enter into these Terms on your own behalf or on behalf of the entity you represent.
2. Definitions
- “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” — NC Sell Now INC, d/b/a Joe Homebuyer, and its owners, affiliates, and authorized representatives.
- “You,” “Buyer,” “User” — any person or entity that accesses the site, joins the buyers list, submits an inquiry or offer, or otherwise uses the Services.
- “Wholesale / Assignment transaction” — a transaction in which we, acting as a principal, hold an equitable interest in a property under a purchase-and-sale contract with the property owner and offer to assign our rights under that contract to a Buyer for an assignment fee, or sell/re-sell the property.
- “Equitable interest” — the contractual right to purchase a property that we hold under a contract with the seller; it is that contractual right — not brokerage of real estate owned by others — that we market and may assign.
- “Assignment Fee” — the fee we charge to assign our rights under a purchase contract to a Buyer. It is our compensation and is separate from the price paid to the property owner.
- “Earnest Money Deposit” (“EMD”) — a good-faith deposit a Buyer places to secure a deal, as further described in Section 9.
- “As-Is, Where-Is” — the property is sold in its present condition, with all faults and defects, without repairs, and without warranties, as described in Section 8.
- “Off-market deal” — a property opportunity marketed privately to our buyer network rather than listed on the MLS or public portals.
- “Starting Offer” — the starting figure at which we invite offers on a deal. It is a starting point, not an appraisal, a maximum, or a guarantee of value.
- “Offer Deadline” — a stated date/time by which offers on a deal are requested. Deals are awarded by our review of the offers received, not on a first-come, first-served basis.
3. Nature of the Services — We Are Not a Broker
Joe Homebuyer operates a real estate investor marketplace and dispositions platform for off-market, privately marketed, wholesale, assignment, and related investment opportunities. The Services are intended for experienced investors and real estate professionals using them for business purposes.
- We act as a principal, not as your agent or broker. When we market a deal, we are marketing and offering to assign our own equitable interest in a purchase contract, or selling property we control. We are not acting as a licensed real estate broker or agent for you, are not representing you in any transaction, and owe you no fiduciary or agency duties.
- We do not list, broker, or sell real estate owned by third parties on their behalf, and nothing on the site is an offer of brokerage services.
- We are not a lender, title company, escrow agent, appraiser, inspector, contractor, or law/accounting firm.
- You are responsible for engaging your own licensed professionals (attorney, title/closing agent, inspector, lender, CPA) for any transaction.
4. How Our Process Works
The Services generally work as follows. Every step is subject to change and to the specific written agreement for a given deal:
- Browse / join. You review off-market opportunities and may join our buyers list and share your buy-box criteria.
- Inquiry & walkthrough. You may request more information or a walkthrough. Access, timing, and conditions vary by deal and by the property owner’s availability.
- Offer. You submit an offer at or above the Starting Offer. Submitting an offer does not create a binding agreement or reserve the deal.
- Offer Deadline & award. Many deals use an offer deadline. We review offers and select a buyer in our sole discretion; deals are not awarded first-come, first-served, and may be sold, withdrawn, re-priced, or canceled at any time before a written agreement is signed.
- Written agreement. If selected, you and we (or you and the property owner) execute a separate written assignment agreement and/or purchase-and-sale agreement. Only that signed agreement is binding — not anything on this site.
- Earnest money. You place the EMD as required by the written agreement (Section 9).
- Due diligence & closing. You complete your own due diligence within any contract deadlines and close through a title/closing agent. Our Assignment Fee is earned at or before closing as set out in the agreement.
5. No Professional Advice
Nothing on this site or communicated through the Services is legal, tax, accounting, appraisal, inspection, brokerage, financial, or investment advice, and nothing here is an offer or solicitation to buy or sell securities.
Any figures, models, calculators, scores, or opinions (including value, ARV, comparable sales, rehab/repair estimates, rent, cap rate, cash flow, or returns) are illustrative only. You must obtain and rely on your own licensed attorney, CPA, inspector, appraiser, and other advisors before acting.
6. Deal Information, Estimates & No Reliance
- Property details, square footage, lot size, condition, occupancy, rents, values, repair estimates, ARV, timelines, photos, maps, and other deal information are provided for convenience, are often sourced from third parties (owners, public records, MLS/portals, mapping and data vendors), may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date, and may change without notice.
- Photos, renderings, and virtual tours may not depict current condition and are not warranted to be accurate.
- You agree not to rely on any information we provide and to independently verify everything material to your decision through your own inspections, title review, surveys, and professionals.
- Any opinion of value, rent, ARV, or repair scope is informational only and is not an appraisal, a guarantee, or a representation of fact.
- Deals may be sold, canceled, reassigned, re-priced, withdrawn, or modified at any time unless and until a final written agreement is fully executed.
7. Offers, Walkthroughs, and Transactions
- Submitting an offer, inquiry, or walkthrough request through the site does not create a binding agreement or reserve any deal.
- A transaction becomes binding only if the parties execute a separate written agreement, and only on the terms of that agreement.
- Walkthrough dates, access terms, offer deadlines, closing timelines, earnest money requirements, and related deal terms vary by deal and may change.
- You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when submitting offers, walkthrough requests, or buyer criteria, and to honor offers you submit.
8. Properties Sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS
All properties and equitable interests are offered and sold strictly on an “AS-IS, WHERE-IS, WITH ALL FAULTS” basis.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no representations or warranties of any kind — express, implied, or statutory — regarding any property or deal, including no warranty of condition, habitability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, value, income, rents, square footage, boundaries, title, zoning, permits, code compliance, environmental condition, the presence or absence of mold, lead, radon, or other hazards, or the accuracy of any figure or estimate.
We are not obligated to make any repairs, improvements, or disclosures beyond those required by applicable law. You accept the property and all risks relating to its condition, and you assume full responsibility for your own inspections and investigations.
9. Earnest Money Deposits (EMD)
- An Earnest Money Deposit is a good-faith deposit that a Buyer places to secure a deal and demonstrate the ability and intent to close.
- The amount, due date, holder (for example, a title company, attorney, escrow agent, or as otherwise designated), refundability, contingencies, and forfeiture conditions of any EMD are governed by the specific written agreement for that deal.
- EMD may be non-refundable and may be forfeited if the Buyer fails to close or otherwise defaults under the written agreement, except as that agreement or applicable law provides.
- Any payment link, invoice, or instruction we provide is solely to facilitate the deposit described in the written agreement. You are responsible for verifying wiring and payment instructions directly with the designated holder to avoid fraud.
- We do not provide escrow services and, unless expressly stated in writing, do not hold EMD as an escrow agent.
10. Assignment Fees & Compensation
On assignment transactions, our compensation is an Assignment Fee paid to us for assigning our rights under a purchase contract to you. On deals where we sell property we control, our compensation is the difference between our acquisition cost and your purchase price.
Our compensation is disclosed in the applicable written agreement and/or on the closing statement. By proceeding with a deal, you acknowledge and consent to our compensation. Our economic interest is that of a principal seller/assignor, which may differ from your interests.
11. Availability, First Look & Offer Deadlines
- Access to deals, “first look,” early access, or buyer-list membership is a convenience and is not a guarantee that any deal will be offered to you, remain available, or be sold to you.
- Deals are subject to prior sale and to the property owner’s rights, and may be withdrawn or re-priced at any time.
- Where an Offer Deadline applies, we select a buyer by reviewing the offers received in our sole discretion. Deals are not awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
12. No Guarantee of Results or Investment Returns
Real estate investing involves substantial risk, including the risk of loss of your entire investment. Past performance and any examples, case studies, or “1,000+ deals closed” statistics reflect our or others’ experience and are not a promise of your results.
We make no guarantee regarding profit, return on investment, appreciation, rent, occupancy, resale, financing, or any other outcome. Any forward-looking statements are estimates only and actual results will vary. You are solely responsible for your investment decisions and their outcomes.
13. Communications Consent (Email, SMS & Phone)
By submitting your contact information, joining the buyers list, requesting a walkthrough, making an offer, or otherwise contacting us, you consent to receive communications from Joe Homebuyer related to your inquiry, deal opportunities, buyer matching, and related marketing or operational follow-up, where permitted by law, including under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA).
- Communications may be sent by email, phone call, and text (SMS/MMS), including via automated systems where you have provided the required consent.
- Consent to marketing texts or calls is not a condition of any purchase.
- Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
- To opt out of marketing texts, reply STOP to any message; reply HELP for help. To opt out of marketing email, use the unsubscribe link in any email or the link below. Transactional messages about an active transaction may continue.
- Manage your preferences or opt out here: Communication Preferences & Opt-Out.
14. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the site in a way that violates law, infringes rights, or interferes with normal site operation.
- Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through forms, offers, or buyer profiles.
- Attempt to scrape, reverse engineer, disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the site, data, or underlying systems.
- Use the site or data for spam, unlawful solicitation, or any abusive or misleading marketing activity.
15. Fair Housing
We support and comply with the federal Fair Housing Act and all applicable federal, state, and local fair housing laws. We do not discriminate, and will not tolerate discrimination, on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, or any other class protected by applicable law. Buyers agree to comply with all fair housing and anti-discrimination laws in their own dealings.
16. Accessibility
We are committed to making our website accessible and usable for people of all abilities, and we work toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. If you encounter any barrier or need this content in an alternative format or a reasonable accommodation, contact us at Triadoffers@joehomebuyer.com or (336) 645-6587 and we will work in good faith to help. We welcome feedback on accessibility.
17. Intellectual Property & Third-Party Services
The website design, branding, copy, layout, graphics, and related content are owned by Joe Homebuyer or its licensors unless otherwise stated. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, or exploit site content beyond normal personal or internal business review without prior written permission.
The underlying platform — its architecture, design system, software, and product experience — was conceived, engineered, and designed by Austin Riley Clough, its sole creator and proprietor, who retains all rights to it. It's shared here for your use, not for copying; any use, reproduction, or adaptation of the platform or its design without Austin Riley Clough's prior written consent isn't permitted and may carry legal consequences.
The site may link to or embed third-party websites, listing portals, mapping tools, payment processors, e-sign, and communication services. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, or practices; your use of them is governed by their own terms.
18. Disclaimer of Warranties
The site, the Services, all deal information, and all properties are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” with all faults and without warranty of any kind.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company disclaims all warranties, express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, title, non-infringement, merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation, or that any property, deal, buyer opportunity, figure, or communication is accurate or will remain available. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.
19. Limitation of Liability, Release & Assumption of Risk
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company and its owners, affiliates, contractors, and representatives (the “Released Parties”) will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, lost opportunities, diminution in value, or transaction losses, arising out of or relating to the site, the Services, any deal, any property, or any information, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Liability cap. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Released Parties’ total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the site or the Services will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you actually paid to the Company for the specific transaction giving rise to the claim in the twelve (12) months before the claim, or (b) US $100.
Assumption of risk & release. You knowingly assume all risks associated with real estate investing and with using the Services, and — to the fullest extent permitted by law — you release and waive any claim against the Released Parties arising from property condition, deal information, your reliance on any estimate, your due diligence (or lack of it), market conditions, or your investment outcomes. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you.
20. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use or misuse of the site or Services, your offers or transactions, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of applicable law or the rights of others.
21. Dispute Resolution — Arbitration & Class-Action Waiver
Please read this section carefully — it affects your legal rights.
- Informal resolution first. Before starting any proceeding, you agree to contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.
- Binding arbitration. Except as noted below, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, the site, or the Services will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by a recognized arbitration provider under its consumer/commercial rules, seated in Guilford County, North Carolina, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
- Class-action waiver. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis. You and the Company waive any right to bring or participate in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action.
- Jury-trial waiver. To the extent any matter proceeds in court, you and the Company waive any right to a jury trial.
- Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief for intellectual-property or unauthorized-access matters.
- If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) will proceed in court.
22. Governing Law & Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent superseded by the Federal Arbitration Act or other applicable federal law. Subject to Section 21, the exclusive venue for any permitted court action is the state or federal courts located in Guilford County, North Carolina, and you consent to their personal jurisdiction.
23. General
- Changes. We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version is posted here with a revised “last updated” date, and your continued use constitutes acceptance.
- Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest of these Terms remain in effect and the unenforceable provision is modified to the minimum extent necessary.
- Entire agreement. These Terms, plus any signed agreement for a specific deal, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede prior understandings. A signed deal agreement controls over these Terms to the extent of any conflict for that deal.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it.
- Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a business transfer.
- Force majeure. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
