Terms of Service

Last Updated: May 3, 2026

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of forsalespokane.com and any related services (collectively, the “Site”), operated by Joey Costello, a licensed real estate broker with Windermere North Spokane (“we,” “our,” or “us”). By accessing or using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

2. Real Estate Listings & IDX Disclaimer

Listing data on this Site is provided by the Spokane Association of Realtors (sarmls) under an Internet Data Exchange (IDX) license from MLS Grid. The information is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed accurate by the MLS, the listing broker, or us. All measurements, square footage, lot size, school assignments, taxes, and HOA dues are approximate and should be independently verified by the buyer prior to making any decision. Active listings may sell, change price, or be withdrawn at any time without notice. Some listings shown may be off-market, sold, or pending; the Site labels these where possible but discrepancies are inevitable.

Listing photographs and descriptions are the property of the listing broker or agent and are displayed under the IDX agreement. If you are a listing broker and wish to opt a listing out of display on the Site, please contact us using the information below and we will remove it promptly.

3. Not Legal, Tax, or Financial Advice

Content on the Site — including market reports, neighborhood guides, AI-generated home visualizations (“Dreams”), and the Spokane Permit Explorer — is provided for informational purposes only. It does not constitute legal, tax, appraisal, or financial advice. Always consult a qualified professional before making real estate, lending, or investment decisions.

4. AI-Generated Content (Dreams & Tours)

The Site offers AI-powered tools that re-imagine a listing photo according to a text prompt (“Dreams”) and AI-narrated cinematic video tours (“Cinema”). These outputs are generated automatically and may contain inaccuracies, hallucinations, or features that do not exist in the actual property. AI-generated images and videos are illustrative only and are not representations of the property's real condition. Do not rely on AI output to make purchase decisions. By submitting a prompt or photo to the Dream feature, you represent that you have the right to do so and grant us a non-exclusive license to process and display the resulting visualization.

5. User Submissions & Lead Forms

When you submit a contact form, request a tour, request a CMA, or send a private tour invitation, the information you provide (name, email, phone, address, message) is forwarded to Joey Costello and stored in our database for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. Submissions may also be sent to a partner agent if you are inquiring about a listing represented by another broker. We will not sell your contact information to data brokers or use it for purposes unrelated to real estate services. See our Privacy Policy.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Scrape, crawl, or bulk-download listing data, photos, or any other content for purposes outside personal, non-commercial home shopping (this includes re-publication, training third-party AI models, or competitive intelligence).
  • Submit false or misleading information through any form (including pretending to be a property owner you are not).
  • Use the Site to harass, defame, or stalk any individual, including listing agents or property owners.
  • Reverse-engineer, attempt to bypass authentication, probe for vulnerabilities, or otherwise interfere with the Site's operation.
  • Submit Dream prompts that are illegal, defamatory, sexually explicit, hateful, or that infringe a third party's rights.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Site, with or without notice, for any reason including violation of these Terms.

7. Intellectual Property

Original content on the Site — including text, layouts, software, branding, cinematic video templates, and aggregated market data — is the property of Joey Costello / forsalespokane.com and is protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and trade-secret law. MLS listing data and photographs remain the property of their respective owners and are used under our IDX license. You may view, save, and print pages for personal home-shopping use, but any commercial reuse requires written permission.

8. DMCA / Copyright Notice

If you believe content on the Site infringes your copyright, please send a written notice to joey@forsalespokane.com including: (a) a description of the copyrighted work; (b) the URL of the allegedly infringing content; (c) your contact information; (d) a statement made in good faith that the use is not authorized; (e) a statement under penalty of perjury that you are the rights holder or authorized to act on their behalf; and (f) your physical or electronic signature. We will respond promptly in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

9. Third-Party Services

The Site relies on third parties for hosting, analytics, payments, AI inference, video and email delivery, mailer printing, and related services. We are not responsible for the content, availability, or practices of these third parties — their respective terms and privacy policies apply when you interact with them. This includes (but is not limited to): Google / YouTube, Vercel, Linode/Akamai, Replicate, Anthropic, OpenAI, Resend, Lob, Stripe, MLS Grid, and the Spokane Association of Realtors.

10. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

THE SITE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or harmful components.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL JOEY COSTELLO, WINDERMERE NORTH SPOKANE, OR THEIR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE — INCLUDING RELIANCE ON LISTING DATA, AI-GENERATED CONTENT, OR MARKET REPORTS. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

11. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Joey Costello, Windermere North Spokane, and our affiliates from any claim, liability, or expense (including attorney's fees) arising out of your use of the Site, your submissions, or your violation of these Terms.

12. Equal Housing & Fair Housing

We support equal housing opportunity. We do not discriminate against any person based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other class protected by federal, state, or local law.

13. Governing Law & Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the Site shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Spokane County, Washington, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by a new “Last Updated” date above. Continued use of the Site after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
