EazySell Terms and Conditions
EazySell by Zolo ("the Service") is subject to the following Terms and Conditions as well as the Terms of Use of Zolo.ca. The Service is provided by Zolo Ventures Ltd. (and its subsidiaries and affiliated companies) (collectively referred to as the "Brokerage").
Service Overview & Fees: In order to qualify for the Service, all registered owners on title to the property to be listed for sale must enter into a posting agreement with the Brokerage. A non-refundable fee of $500, plus applicable taxes, is due at the time of purchase. The listing will be active on the MLS® System and Zolo.ca for a maximum period of 90 days or until the Seller instructs the Brokerage to remove the listing. This is a "Mere Posting." as the Brokerage acts as the listing brokerage for the purpose of MLS® data entry only. The Seller is responsible for all other aspects of the sale, including but not limited to pricing, photography, showings, and negotiations.
The $500 Credit Eligibility: To qualify for the $500 credit, during the 90-day listing period or any subsequent renewal of the listing period, the Seller must sign a standard Exclusive Listing Agreement for full-service representation with an agent of the Brokerage. The $500 credit is not a cash refund and has no cash value. It is applied as a reduction of the total commission payable to the Brokerage's agent upon the successful closing of the sale of the Seller's property.
Seller Responsibilities & Accuracy: The Seller is solely responsible for the accuracy of all information provided (e.g., room sizes, inclusions, property taxes). The Brokerage is not liable for errors provided by the Seller. The Seller agrees to respond to buyer and agent inquiries in a timely and professional manner.
Provincial Compliance (RMS & Legal): If the property listed for sale is located in Alberta, the Seller warrants that all measurements provided, if any, comply with the Residential Measurement Standard (RMS).
The Seller acknowledges that inaccurate listing information can lead to legal liability and agrees to indemnify the Brokerage against any claims arising from inaccurate listing information.
The Brokerage does not provide legal advice. The Brokerage strongly recommends the Seller retain a real estate lawyer to prepare and/or review all "Offers to Purchase" and closing documents.
Leads & Privacy: All inquiries generated through REALTOR.ca and Zolo.ca will be forwarded to the contact information provided by the Seller. By using this service, the Seller consents to their contact information being shared with licensed agents and prospective buyers for the purpose of facilitating the sale.
Refunds and Chargebacks: All fees paid for the Service are non-refundable, as the Brokerage incurs immediate administrative and data-entry costs upon the initiation of a listing. By purchasing the Service, the Seller acknowledges that the $500 fee is for the initial setup and hosting of the "Mere Posting" and is not contingent upon the sale of the property or the duration the listing remains active. The Seller agrees not to initiate a chargeback or payment dispute with their credit card provider or financial institution for services rendered. In the event of an unauthorized chargeback, the Seller shall be responsible for all costs incurred by the Brokerage in recovering the funds, including but not limited to administrative fees, legal costs, and any fees imposed by the payment processor.
Cancellations & Renewals: The Seller may cancel the listing at any time; however, the $500 fee is non-refundable. If the property has not sold within 90 days, the Seller may renew the listing for an additional $500 for an additional 90 day period. Renewal fees are not cumulative for the commission credit and the Seller will only be entitled to a $500 credit in the event that the listing is converted to full-service representation with an agent of the Brokerage. The Brokerage reserves the right to terminate the listing and contractual relationship at any time for failure to comply with these Terms & Conditions, the Terms of Use of Zolo.ca, and/or the MLS® System terms.
The Brokerage reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify, update, or replace these Terms and Conditions at any time. Any changes will be effective immediately upon posting to Zolo.ca or notification to the Seller. It is the Seller's responsibility to review these Terms periodically for changes. The Seller's continued use of the Service following the posting of any changes constitutes acceptance of those modifications.
