This is probably the most boring section of this Website, where I tell you about how I may (or may not) make money from this Website and the terms of service provided by your use of this Website, or Website as it is sometimes called.

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE ACCESSING OR USING THE WEBSITE. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE WEBSITE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Some might call me a professional, but I consider myself more of an “advanced amateur”. I make tons of mistakes all the time, but I am happy to show people what I’ve learned in my years as an investor and to answer questions based on my own experience. I operate this Website under my Company, REtipster Publishing LLC (sometimes referred to herein as “Company” or “we” or “us”) and so all the content generated is generated by REtipster Publishing LLC.

I am probably a lot like you – trying to find the best real estate projects to invest my time and money into. The things I say in this Website shouldn’t be taken as legal or financial advice. Rather, this Website is a place where I can showcase my own perspective and strategy on how to make money with real estate. As with any Website on the internet – you should scrutinize the things I say and take everything with a grain or two of salt. I don’t know all the details about your life, work  or money situation (among many other things), so just take this Website as “one man’s perspective” and use your common sense as to whether or not it applies to you.

This Website is provided “AS IS.” Content is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied on for financial decisions. You should not rely upon any single source of information in purchasing real estate or making any financial or investment decisions. You should consult your financial professional and legal and/or tax advisor for advice about services or issues discussed or provided on this Website.  Content may contain inaccuracies or errors and may change.

This Website sometimes posts content from Contributing Authors and users. You understand and agree that we cannot be held liable for any user’s or Contributing Author’s failure to truthfully or accurately disclose their identity or from the information or opinions provided by those Contributing authors or users.

You Are Important To Me

The success of this blog has everything to do with my users, readers, and customers trusting me – so I want to be very clear about how I do (and don’t) make money.

I earn money from a variety of business activities associated with this site and others, including:

• Buying And Selling Land
• Residential Rental Properties
• Selling Informational Products
• Affiliate Commissions
• Joint Ventures With Other Investors
• Coaching and Consulting

If you spend much time on this site, you will inevitably come across some informational products available for purchase and you will probably see a number of affiliate links inserted throughout various Website posts. All of these links and products are items that I have analyzed and/or used extensively and they are only posted when relevant. My goal isn’t to “sell you” on anything. My goal is to point you in the right direction if you want to learn more about how I do things.

On my email list, I will occasionally post sponsored content and clearly label it as such.

I do have an affiliate partnership with organizations such as DataTree, Rocket Lawyer, USLegal, Bluehost, and several other standalone products that are mentioned sporadically in various posts and pages throughout this Website. If you buy something from these third parties, it will help support this site and will cost you nothing extra. These third-party organizations don’t tell me what to review or what to say. I only mention them if they bring substantial value to my readers and if I think it makes sense to use their products or services. These third-party Websites contain products and opinions expressed by their respective owners and creators. As such, I do not assume responsibility or liability for any third party material or opinions you may come across as you use their products or services. Please do the appropriate research before spending your money on any of these third-party offers.

The information contained in this Website is for general information or entertainment purposes only and does not constitute professional or financial advice. Please contact an independent financial professional or attorney for advice regarding your specific situation.

The bottom line is that my readers are very important to me. I value the time that they spend reading the content on this site and I want them to know I have their best interests at heart.
