Terms for Consumers (Buyers and Sellers of Real Estate)

When you submit information through this website, a Newzip representative may contact you, via phone, SMS, and/or email at the contact number and/or email address that you provided.

You are obligated to provide information that is accurate and complete so that Newzip can provide you with a real estate agent that is suited for the potential transaction and Newzip reserves to the right to terminate anyone who provides false, inaccurate or misleading information.

Newzip operates as a referral service to licensed real estate brokerages. All terms and conditions between a home buyer or seller and a real estate agent is governed by a separate legal agreement that does not involve Newzip and is solely between the home buyers and sellers and the real estate agent.

Newzip does not endorse, validate, or recommend any legal agreements between home buyers and sellers and real estate agents. Please consult your own attorney for this type of work.

Referrals provided by Newzip via this website are not recommendations by Newzip for any particular service provider referred and should not be considered as such. You are responsible for vetting and choosing the service provider(s) which best suits your individual needs.

Even though your participation in this referral service may be terminated by you or Newzip at any time and is completely voluntary, any referrals that Newzip may have with a real estate professional prior to termination are still effective.

You agree and acknowledge that Newzip may modify the terms and conditions of this Website and associated referral service at any time. Newzip will notify you in advance of any significant changes of our services to provide you with the option to discontinue use of the services.

Newzip Cash Rewards are funded by a negotiated referral fee between Newzip and the selected real estate broker. Newzip will then provide to you, the home buyer, a significant portion of this referral fee in the form of a closing cost credit.

The amount of cash rewards is determined by the final sale price of the property at closing. In order to be eligible for Newzip’s cash rewards, you must be the purchaser of real estate, and the real estate transaction must take place under a valid and binding broker referral agreement between Newzip and the transacting agent.

Please note that cashback rebates are not available where prohibited by law, including in the following states: Alaska, Iowa, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oregon and Tennessee. Newzip reserves the right to withdraw this cashback rebate offer in other jurisdictions if legal impediments arise.
