Consumer Terms of Service

Last Updated: July 22, 2026

Version: 1.0

These Consumer Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of factour.com and all Factour services (the “Platform”), operated by Factour, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company (“Factour,” “we,” “us,” “our”).

Companion agreements: Lister Agreement, Agent and Broker Agreement, Privacy Policy.

1. Acceptance

By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into contracts.

If you list a property for sale or for lease, the Lister Agreement also applies to you. If you are a licensed real estate professional, the Agent and Broker Agreement also applies to you. Where a role-specific agreement conflicts with these Terms as to that role, the role-specific agreement controls.

2. What Factour Is, and What Factour Is Not

Read this section carefully. It defines the limits of our role.

Factour is a technology platform. We provide software that lets property owners publish listings and manage showing appointments, and that lets consumers request property showings from independent licensed real estate professionals. Properties on the Platform may be offered for sale or for rent or lease.

Factour is not a real estate brokerage. Factour does not hold a real estate brokerage license in any state. We are not a property management company, a leasing agent, or a tenant screening service. We do not represent buyers, sellers, renters, landlords, or tenants. We are not your agent, broker, fiduciary, advisor, or attorney.

Factour does not:

  • List, market, sell, buy, lease, rent, manage, or appraise real property on behalf of any person
  • Negotiate, or participate in negotiating, the price or terms of any sale, lease, or rental
  • Screen, qualify, or approve tenants, and does not perform tenant screening of any kind
  • Provide legal, tax, financial, appraisal, inspection, or investment advice
  • Prepare, review, or advise on offers, contracts, leases, disclosures, or closing documents
  • Hold, escrow, or disburse earnest money, security deposits, rent, or transaction funds
  • Guarantee that any property is available, accurately described, or will be shown as scheduled
  • Employ, supervise, direct, or control any real estate professional who uses the Platform

Factour is not a party to any transaction. Any agreement between you and a property owner, or between you and a real estate professional, is solely between those parties.

3. Your Account

You must create an account to book showings. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep it updated.

You are responsible for all activity under your account and for safeguarding your credentials. Notify us immediately of unauthorized use.

Accounts are personal to you and may not be sold, transferred, or shared.

We may refuse, suspend, or terminate any account at our discretion, including where information appears false or these Terms have been violated.

4. Booking Showings

4.1 Two Types of Showings

Owner-hosted showings. A property owner, landlord, or their authorized representative hosts you at the property. These are arranged free of charge through the Platform.

Professional showings. An independent licensed real estate professional hosts you, in person or by live video, for a fee they set.

Showings may relate to properties offered for sale or for rent or lease.

4.2 Requests Are Not Confirmations

Submitting a request does not confirm an appointment. A showing is confirmed only when the property owner or the assigned professional confirms it in the Platform.

For professional showings, accepting a proposal does not lock a time. The assigned professional must first confirm that the property is available at that time with the listing agent, owner, or other authorized party. Until the Platform shows a status of “Confirmed Tour,” your appointment is not confirmed and the proposed times may change.

4.3 Requests Expire

Requests, proposals, and pending confirmations expire if not acted on within the periods shown in the Platform. Expired items are cancelled automatically.

4.4 Cancellations, Reschedules, and No-Shows

Either party may cancel or request to reschedule. We are not responsible for any cancellation, reschedule, delay, or no-show by any other user.

Owner-hosted showings. These are free. You may cancel at any time, though we ask that you give the host as much notice as possible. Repeated no-shows may result in suspension of your account.

Professional showings. You may cancel a confirmed showing at no charge up to twenty-four hours before the scheduled start time. Cancellations within twenty-four hours, and no-shows, may be charged the full showing fee and the platform fee.

If the professional cancels or fails to appear, you are not charged, and any authorization on your payment method is released.

5. Verification: What It Is and What It Is Not

The Platform uses verification steps that may include confirming a phone number, placing a payment card on file, and in some cases government identification verification through third-party providers.

Verification exists to reduce automated bookings, spam, duplicate accounts, and non-serious requests. That is its purpose.

Verification is not a safety measure. Specifically:

  • Verification is not a background check, criminal history check, sex offender registry check, or safety screening of any kind
  • Verification does not evaluate any person’s intentions, character, honesty, or propensity for harm
  • Verification does not assess creditworthiness, financial capacity, ability to purchase or rent, or tenant suitability
  • Verification is not a consumer report, and Factour is not a consumer reporting agency
  • A verified badge is not an endorsement, recommendation, or assurance that any person is safe or trustworthy
  • License verification confirms only that a license record matched at the time checked. Licenses can lapse or be revoked between checks

A verified person can still be a dangerous person. Verification confirms that a phone number, a payment card, or an identity document was validated. It tells you nothing beyond that.

Property owners choose which verification requirements apply to their listing. Those requirements apply uniformly to every person who attempts to book that listing.

Exercise the same caution with a verified person that you would exercise with any stranger.

6. Safety Acknowledgment and Assumption of Risk

This section describes real risk. Please read it.

Factour connects people who do not know each other and facilitates in-person meetings at private property.

You acknowledge that Factour does not:

  • Conduct background checks or criminal history screening on any user
  • Screen, vet, or evaluate any user for safety, character, or trustworthiness
  • Attend, host, supervise, monitor, or record any showing
  • Inspect any property for hazards, defects, or dangerous conditions
  • Control the conduct of any person before, during, or after a showing
  • Provide security, escort, or emergency response services

You voluntarily assume all risks associated with property showings, including risk of personal injury, death, assault, property damage, theft, fraud, misrepresentation, and unlawful conduct by any other person.

Factour is not responsible for the acts or omissions of any other user, including property owners, landlords, other consumers, licensed professionals, or anyone else present at a property.

Recommended precautions.

Tell someone where you are going and when you expect to return. Consider bringing another adult. Meet during daylight hours when possible. Trust your instincts and leave any situation that feels unsafe. In an emergency, contact local law enforcement immediately. Do not contact Factour for emergency assistance.

7. Fees and Payment

7.1 Owner-Hosted Showings

Owner-hosted showings arranged through the Platform are free to you.

7.2 Professional Showings

You pay two amounts, itemized before you confirm:

  • The showing fee set by the independent professional
  • A flat Factour platform fee of $12.00 per booking

The Factour platform fee compensates Factour for software services it performs, including scheduling, verification, payment processing, and notifications. It is not a commission, a referral fee, or compensation for procuring any party.

7.3 Authorization and Capture

Your payment method may be authorized when you accept a proposal and charged when the showing is completed. Authorizations that do not proceed to a completed showing are released. Timing of release depends on your card issuer.

7.4 Payment Processing

Payments are processed by third-party processors subject to their own terms. Factour does not store full payment card data. The professional or their brokerage is the merchant of record for the showing fee.

7.5 Refunds

If a professional cancels, fails to appear, or the property is not made available, you are not charged and any authorization is released. Other refund requests are evaluated case by case at our discretion. Disputes about the quality of a professional’s services are between you and that professional.

7.6 Taxes

You are responsible for any taxes applicable to your use of the Platform.

8. Your Conduct at Showings

You agree to:

  • Arrive at the scheduled time, or cancel in advance
  • Treat the property, its occupants, and its contents with respect
  • Not enter areas you are not invited to enter
  • Not remove, damage, or photograph anything without permission
  • Comply with instructions from the property owner or assigned professional
  • Not bring persons not disclosed to the host without permission
  • Not use a showing to solicit, market, harass, case a property, or gather information for any purpose other than a good-faith interest in the property
  • Respect the privacy of any occupants, including tenants residing at a property offered for sale or lease

You are responsible for your own safety and for any damage you cause.

9. Independent Judgment and Due Diligence

You are solely responsible for your own due diligence, including inspections, surveys, title review, financing, lease review, and valuation.

Listing information is supplied by property owners and third parties. Factour does not verify listing content, including price, rent, condition, square footage, boundaries, permits, lease terms, deposit requirements, or disclosures.

Do not rely on the Platform, a listing, or a showing as a substitute for professional advice or independent verification.

10. Fair Housing

Federal, state, and local fair housing laws apply to the sale and rental of housing. You may not use the Platform to discriminate against any person on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), national origin, familial status, disability, or any other characteristic protected under applicable law.

Report suspected fair housing violations to us at help@factour.com and to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

11. Prohibited Conduct

You may not:

  • Post false, misleading, fraudulent, or deceptive content
  • Post content that is unlawful, defamatory, obscene, harassing, hateful, or that violates fair housing laws
  • Discriminate against any person on the basis of a protected characteristic
  • Impersonate any person or misrepresent your identity or authority
  • Use the Platform to solicit, spam, advertise unrelated goods or services, or recruit users to competing services
  • Harvest, scrape, crawl, or use automated means to access, copy, or collect data from the Platform
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive source code from the Platform
  • Circumvent, disable, or interfere with security features, rate limits, verification, or access controls
  • Create duplicate or automated accounts

We may remove any content at our discretion, with or without notice.

13. Disclaimers

Factour does not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any content on the Platform.

14. Limitation of Liability

FACTOUR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, WHETHER OR NOT FACTOUR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Factour and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Platform, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of another person or entity.

16. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or the Platform shall first be submitted to binding arbitration in Nashville, Tennessee under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, except that either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.

You waive any right to bring claims as a class action or in any representative capacity.

17. Modifications

We may modify these Terms at any time. We will post the updated Terms on the Platform with a new “Last Updated” date. Your continued use of the Platform after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

If a change materially affects your rights, we will provide additional notice where practicable.
