Once you provide any required information, our Property Estimate Tools will provide you with an estimated property market value for a residential property (an “Estimate”). Estimates provided through the Property Estimate Tools do not constitute an appraisal and are not guarantees of any listing price or actual property value or sale price of a home. We are not liable to you or any third party, under any circumstances or for any reason, with respect to our Estimates or your use thereof or reliance thereon.

Property Estimate Tools are provided by RPS Real Property Solutions (“RPS”), a third party service provider and are subject to the following terms of use (the “RPS Terms of Use”), which terms of use apply in addition to the other terms and conditions in these Terms. In the event of an inconsistency between a term or condition in the RPS Terms of Use and the terms and conditions contained elsewhere in these Terms, the term or condition contained in the RPS Terms of Use shall govern.

Disclaimer:

The estimate of market value provided by RPS (as may used by or be incorporated into an Estimate) is computer generated by applying various mathematical formulas and techniques proprietary to RPS to available data.

The quality of the data, such as the accuracy, timeliness and completeness, could greatly affect the accuracy of the estimate of market value. The estimate of market value has not been prepared by a licensed appraiser and does not include information that could be derived from a visual inspection of the subject property and its surroundings, nor does it constitute an appraisal of the subject property and should not be relied upon as such. The condition of the property, including information or details that could be derived from a visual inspection, could greatly affect the accuracy of the estimate of value. The data and the information derived from the data in this report is intended for illustrative and general information purposes only and should not be relied upon for any purpose. All uses are at the user’s sole risk. RPS is not liable for the accuracy of the data or information provided in the estimate of market value (including as may be used by or be incorporated into an Estimate). The accuracy of the data and methodologies used are deemed reliable but are not warranted or guaranteed.

24. BINDING ARBITRATION

In the event of a dispute arising under or relating to these Terms or the Site or a Service (each, a “Dispute”), you agree to contact our customer support team to resolve the issue. If a dispute cannot be resolved through our customer support team, you or any of your affiliates on one hand and Royal LePage and any of our affiliates on the other hand, all agree to resolve any dispute relating to these Terms or in relation to the Service by binding arbitration in Toronto, ON, Canada, or in another location that we have both agreed to. Further to this agreement, you understand that you and your affiliates and Royal LePage and its affiliates are giving up the right to have a judge and/or jury resolve any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service.

Exception: You and your affiliates on one hand, and Royal LePage and its affiliates on the other hand, agree that we will go to court to resolve disputes relating to your, your affiliates’, Royal LePage’s or Royal LePage’s affiliates’ intellectual property (e.g., trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights or patents).

In addition, if any of us brings a claim in court that should be arbitrated, the other of us can ask a court to force us to go to arbitration to resolve the claim (i.e., compel arbitration). Any of us may also ask a court to halt a court proceeding while an arbitration proceeding is ongoing.

Details of Arbitration Procedure: Prior to filing any arbitration, both parties jointly agree to seek to resolve any dispute between us by mediation conducted by the Canadian Arbitration Association (CAA), with all mediator fees and expenses paid equally by the parties. If mediation is not successful, either party may initiate an arbitration proceeding with CAA. You can look at CAA’s rules and procedures on their website (www.canadianarbitrationassociation.ca) or you can call them at 1-800-856-5154. The arbitration will be governed by the then-current version of CAA’s Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) and will be held with a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Rules. To the extent anything described in this Agreement to Arbitrate section conflicts with the Rules, the language of this Agreement to Arbitrate section applies. Each of us will be entitled to get a copy of non-privileged relevant documents in the possession or control of the other party and to take a reasonable number of depositions. All such discovery will be in accordance with procedures approved by the arbitrator. This Agreement to Arbitrate section does not alter in any way the statute of limitations that would apply to any claims or counterclaims asserted by either party. The arbitrator’s award will be based on the evidence admitted and the substantive law of the Province of Ontario and Canada, as applicable, and will contain an award for each issue and counterclaim. The award will provide in writing the factual findings and legal reasoning for such award. The arbitrator will not be entitled to modify these Terms. Except as provided in the Commercial Arbitration Act and Commercial Arbitration Code, the arbitration award will be final and binding on the parties. Judgment may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

25. CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Both you and your affiliates agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the Dispute between us and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (i) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any other; (ii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated or resolved on a class action-basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (iii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST US ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. In the event the laws of your state prohibit this class action waiver, this section will not apply; however, all other provisions of the Terms will remain in effect.

26. EQUITABLE RELIEF

You acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach or threatened violation of our intellectual property rights and confidential and proprietary information by you, we will suffer irreparable harm and will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce these Terms. We may, without waiving any other remedies under these Terms, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim, equitable, provisional, or injunctive relief that is necessary to protect our rights and property pending the outcome of the arbitration referenced above. You hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent to the personal and subject matter jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in the State of Delaware for purposes of any such action by us.

27. CONTROLLING LAW; EXCLUSIVE FORUM

These Terms will be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Except as provided in the Binding Arbitration section above, the exclusive jurisdiction for any claim, action or dispute with Royal LePage or relating in any way to your use of the Site will be the courts located in Toronto, Ontario and the venue for the adjudication or disposition of any such claim, action or dispute will be in Toronto, Ontario.
