These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website at www.thevongroupusa.com and any related mobile or desktop applications operated by The von Group, LLC or WatchDog I, LLC (the "WEBSITE" and "APP", collectively the "Services"). By accessing or using the Services in any way — browsing pages, submitting a form, requesting a deal package, or contacting us — you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Services. We may update these Terms from time to time as described in the "Changes to These Terms" section below; continued use of the Services after an update means you accept the revised Terms.

These Terms work alongside our Privacy Policy and our Legal Disclosure, both of which are incorporated by reference. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of The von Group, LLC or WatchDog I, LLC (such as a real estate listing agreement, purchase and sale agreement, or assignment), the signed written agreement controls for that specific transaction.

The von Group, LLC ("The von Group") is a real estate brokerage licensed in the State of Georgia (License No. H-81352). WatchDog I, LLC ("WatchDog Holdings") is an affiliated entity that acquires, holds, and resells residential real estate in the Atlanta metro area.

References in these Terms to "we", "us", or "our" mean The von Group and WatchDog Holdings together unless context makes one or the other clear. The two entities are separate legal companies with distinct roles.

• The von Group acts as a licensed real estate brokerage representing sellers, buyers, and agents in transactions.

• WatchDog Holdings acts as a principal — a buyer that purchases properties for its own account, often for resale to investors.

When you interact with us, please pay attention to which entity is on the other side of the transaction. Brokerage relationships, agency duties, and disclosures may differ depending on which entity is involved.

You are welcome to browse the Services without creating an account or providing personal information. There is no minimum age to read public content on the Services.

You are responsible for your own equipment, internet access, and any costs associated with reaching the Services. We do not guarantee that the Services will be available at all times or free from interruptions, errors, or security issues, and we may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time without notice.

If you transact with us — for example, by signing a listing agreement, purchase and sale agreement, assignment, or any other contract — you must have the legal capacity to enter into that contract under Georgia law. You are responsible for confirming that you meet that requirement before signing. Nothing in these Terms creates a contract for the purchase, sale, or assignment of real estate; that always requires a separately executed written agreement.

Real estate involves judgment calls. Throughout the Services, and in the course of working with us, we may share figures and recommendations such as the following.

• An estimate of what a property could sell for after renovation (sometimes called "ARV").

• An estimate of what a renovation will cost.

• An opinion on the scope of work, finishes, layout, or strategy for a particular property.

• A comparison to recent sales of nearby properties.

• A general read on a neighborhood, school district, or market.

These figures and recommendations are our opinions, not guarantees. They are based on the information available to us at the time and on our experience underwriting real estate in the Atlanta metro area. Actual outcomes — sale price, holding period, rehab cost, profit, loss — can and do vary, sometimes substantially.

You are expected to make every decision based on your own due diligence. That includes, at minimum, your own inspection of the property, your own valuation work, your own contractor bids, your own review of title and survey, and consultation with your own attorney, accountant, lender, and any other professional advisor you choose. You should not rely on any number or opinion we share as a substitute for that work.

Buying, renovating, holding, and reselling residential real estate is a high-risk activity. Returns are not guaranteed. Costs can run over budget. Sale prices can come in below expectations. Properties can sit on the market longer than expected. Markets can shift. Financing can become more expensive or unavailable. Renovations can uncover problems that were not visible at the time of purchase. Any of these — and many other factors outside anyone's control — can reduce a project's profitability or result in a loss of some or all of the capital invested.

We do not promise profits. We do not guarantee that any specific deal, strategy, or property will be profitable. Conversations and written communications with our team — including agents, employees, contractors, or affiliates — are not a substitute for independent legal, financial, tax, or investment advice from professionals you choose.

If you are considering investing with us or buying a property sourced through us, you should be financially prepared for the possibility of losing money on the transaction.

You may see a statement on parts of the Services that references a $20,000 figure in connection with deals we sell to investors. We want to be precise about what that statement means and does not mean.

It is not a profit guarantee. We are not promising that any investor will earn at least $20,000 on a particular deal. A flip can earn more than $20,000, less than $20,000, or nothing at all, and an investor can lose money on a flip — that is the nature of the work.

It is a fallback listing offer. If an investor purchases a property from us, completes the renovation, lists it for resale, and the eventual profit is less than $20,000, The von Group will offer to handle the resale listing at a discounted brokerage fee defined in the applicable written agreement between us and that investor. The intent is that the brokerage savings on the listing side helps offset a soft outcome on the deal.

The discounted listing fee, when applied, may or may not result in the investor reaching $20,000 in net profit. It may not result in the deal being profitable at all. It is a discount on our brokerage service for that one resale, nothing more. The specific fee structure, eligibility requirements, and timing rules live in the applicable written agreement, not in these Terms or anywhere else on the Services.

If you are evaluating an investment opportunity with us and the $20,000 statement matters to your decision, ask us for the underlying agreement in writing before you commit. Do not rely on summaries on the Services as a substitute for the agreement itself.

You may also see statements on parts of the Services that describe a commission structure paying 100% of the buyer-side commission to the listing agent, plus a 1.5% bonus paid by our client at closing. We want to be precise about what that statement covers.

This applies only to Pre-MLS deals. The structure applies when (1) the property was contracted to us by an agent before it was listed on the Multiple Listing Service ("MLS") and (2) the property never gets listed on the MLS during our involvement. If a property has been on the MLS at any point, or ends up on the MLS during our involvement, the Pre-MLS structure does not apply.

The exact commission structure, eligibility, and payment timing for any specific deal are governed by the listing agreement, co-broker agreement, or assignment for that deal — not by general statements on the Services. If you are an agent considering bringing us a deal, please confirm the structure in writing for the specific property before you commit.

The Services and all content we publish on them — including text, graphics, photography, video, logos, branding, code, page layouts, market commentary, and proprietary processes — are owned by The von Group, WatchDog Holdings, or our licensors and are protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

If you submit content to us — for example, comments, photos, property information, testimonials, or feedback — you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual license to use, reproduce, and publish that content in connection with operating and promoting the Services. You represent that you have the right to grant that license.

When using the Services, you agree not to do any of the following.

• Use the Services for any unlawful purpose, or to encourage others to do so.

• Misrepresent your identity or affiliation, including pretending to be one of our agents, employees, or affiliated parties.

• Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent property information, contact information, financial information, or signing information through any form on the Services.

• Attempt to access accounts, systems, or data you are not authorized to access, including by probing, scanning, or testing the vulnerability of the Services.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms.

The Services may contain links to websites, applications, listings, or content operated by third parties (for example, the MLS, lenders, attorneys, contractors, or service providers). We provide those links for convenience only. We do not control, endorse, or guarantee the accuracy of third-party content, and we are not responsible for any third party's products, services, privacy practices, or terms.

Your interactions with third parties are between you and that third party. Read their terms and privacy policies before engaging with them.

THE SERVICES AND ALL CONTENT, INFORMATION, ESTIMATES, OPINIONS, AND MATERIALS MADE AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE VON GROUP AND WATCHDOG HOLDINGS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND TITLE.

We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or free from viruses or other harmful components. We do not warrant that any information, estimate, valuation, or opinion published on or through the Services is accurate, complete, or current, or that the results of using the Services will meet your expectations.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER THE VON GROUP NOR WATCHDOG HOLDINGS, NOR ANY OF OUR OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, OR LICENSORS, WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITY, LOST GOODWILL, LOST DATA, OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE — ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID US IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100.00).

This limitation does not apply to liabilities that cannot be limited by law (for example, intentional misconduct or gross negligence).

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The von Group, WatchDog Holdings, and our officers, members, employees, agents, affiliates, and licensors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to (a) your use of the Services, (b) your breach of these Terms, (c) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party, or (d) any content you submit through the Services.

We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Services at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination — including Information & Estimates, Investment Risk, the $20K Fallback section, the Pre-MLS Commission section, Intellectual Property, Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, and Governing Law and Venue — will survive any such termination.

These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Services, are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

You and we agree that the exclusive venue for any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be the state courts of Gwinnett County, Georgia, or the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, and you and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. This venue and jurisdiction provision does not apply to a dispute that, by law, must be brought in another forum (for example, a complaint to the Georgia Real Estate Commission concerning a brokerage matter).

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the bottom of the page on the Services and post the updated Terms at /terms-of-use. If a change is material, we may also notify you by email or by a notice on the Services. Your continued use of the Services after an update means you accept the updated Terms.
