These terms govern your use of www.luxurybeverlyhillshomes.com, in English and Simplified Chinese. Luxury Beverly Hills Homes is an information service, not a real estate brokerage: our guides and figures are general information, and when you send an inquiry, we pass it to our featured agent, who may contact you. Effective November 3, 2026.
1. Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern access to and use of www.luxurybeverlyhillshomes.com and the services, features and content made available through it, in English and in Simplified Chinese (together, the "Site"), operated by Luxury Beverly Hills Homes (the "Operator", "we", "us" or "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Site. If you use the Site on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it, and "you" then refers to that organization.
2. What the Site is; commentary is opinion
The Site is an information service about luxury homes in Beverly Hills and nearby areas of Los Angeles County. It publishes housing market data, guides to buying, selling and owning a home, comparisons and rankings of places, tax and cost explanations, calculators, and a profile of one featured real estate agent (together, "Site Content").
Rankings, comparisons, picks and similar evaluative content are statements of opinion reflecting the Operator's editorial judgment applied to the data each page names. They are not statements of verifiable fact, not guarantees of any result, and not endorsements of any place, property or professional.
3. Methodology and editorial discretion
Each page names the sources and months its figures come from. The Operator may, in its sole discretion and without notice, select and change the criteria and sources it uses, apply editorial judgment beyond any stated method, and add, remove, revise or decline to publish any Site Content at any time. Our research methods page describes how Site Content is prepared.
4. The featured agent
The Site features one licensed California real estate agent, Michael J. Chen of Christie's International Real Estate Southern California (DRE #01395954) (the "Featured Agent"). The Featured Agent is profiled on our featured agent page and named in other places marked as featured. A featured placement is the Operator's editorial choice of whom to introduce visitors to. It is not a representation that the Featured Agent ranks highest among all agents under any evaluation, and the Site does not compare the Featured Agent with agents who are not featured.
Statements about the Featured Agent's experience, sales, credentials or results are attributed on the Site to their source, such as the agent's own website or brokerage profile, and are that source's statements. The Operator may change or remove the featured placement at any time.
5. Accuracy of the Site
The Operator makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, completeness, timeliness or reliability of the Site or any Site Content. Site Content is compiled from a variety of sources, which may include Zillow and Redfin research data, published market reports, news reports, government agencies, public records and licensing databases, and portions of it are assembled or drafted with automated and AI-assisted tools. Market figures describe the month stated next to them and may be revised by their sources. Laws, tax rates, thresholds and loan limits change. The Operator has no obligation to update Site Content, and no Site Content should be assumed to be current on the date you view it.
The Site is free to use, and your reliance on Site Content is at your sole risk. Before relying on any figure or rule, or engaging any professional, verify it with the source named on the page, the relevant government office and a licensed professional. You can check any agent's license with the California Department of Real Estate.
6. Reported sales and public figures
Where the Site mentions a purchase or sale by a public figure, it reports only what a named news outlet reported, with the outlet and date. The Site does not publish addresses of such properties and does not state or suggest where any person lives. A reported purchase or sale is a past transaction, not a statement about any person's current residence.
7. Third-party content and links
The Site displays, quotes and links to content that originates with third parties, including data published by Zillow, Redfin and government agencies, news reports, and agent profile information ("Third-Party Content"). Third-Party Content is the responsibility of whoever provided it, and the Operator does not adopt or endorse it. Links to other websites are provided for convenience only and do not imply endorsement or association.
8. Inquiries and introductions to the Featured Agent
The Site lets you send an inquiry about buying, selling or finding a home. When you send one, you ask us to pass your details to the Featured Agent, and you agree that the Featured Agent may contact you by phone, text message or email about your inquiry, as described in the consent wording next to the form. You are under no obligation to work with the Featured Agent. Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how long we keep it and who receives it.
9. No brokerage relationship
The Operator is an information service, not a real estate broker, agent or advisor. It does not represent you or any other party and is not a party to any engagement between you and any professional named on the Site. Any engagement, negotiation or transaction between you and a professional is solely between you and that professional. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release the Operator and its affiliates, officers, employees and agents from claims arising out of your dealings with any professional, including that professional's acts, omissions, statements or services.
10. Fair housing
The Operator supports the federal Fair Housing Act, California's Fair Employment and Housing Act and the Unruh Civil Rights Act. Site Content describes homes, costs, rules and services, not who lives in an area or whom an area suits, and it does not steer anyone toward or away from any area. If you believe any content falls short of this, report it to hello@luxurybeverlyhillshomes.com.
11. Errors and corrections
The Site may contain errors, inaccuracies or omissions. The Operator may correct, update, annotate or remove any Site Content at any time without notice, but has no obligation to do so. If you believe a factual point on the Site is wrong, such as a figure, a tax rate, a reported sale or a license status, report it to hello@luxurybeverlyhillshomes.com with supporting documentation. The Operator decides in its sole discretion whether and how to act on a report. A correction is made for accuracy and goodwill and is not an admission of fault or liability.
12. Information disputes
If you dispute Site Content concerning you, your property or your business, send the dispute in writing to hello@luxurybeverlyhillshomes.com, identifying the specific content and the basis for the dispute, with documentation for any factual assertion. The Operator will consider properly submitted disputes in good faith but keeps sole discretion over how they are resolved. Disputes about opinion content, such as rankings and commentary, do not oblige the Operator to make any change.
13. No professional advice
Site Content, including calculator results, is general information. It is not legal, tax, financial, lending, insurance, appraisal or real estate brokerage advice, and it is not a valuation of any property. Consult a CPA, an attorney, a lender or a licensed broker before acting on it. You are solely responsible for decisions you make in reliance on Site Content.
14. Use of the Site; automated access; citation
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes. You must not interfere with the Site or its infrastructure, attempt unauthorized access to any system or data, transmit malicious code, impersonate the Operator or anyone else, submit false inquiries or another person's details, or use Site Content to build or operate a competing directory or data service.
The Operator permits good-faith indexing and retrieval of public Site pages by search engines and artificial intelligence systems, consistent with the Site's robots.txt file as in effect from time to time. Other automated collection, scraping or bulk downloading of Site Content is prohibited without the Operator's prior written consent.
The Operator grants a limited, revocable license to quote brief excerpts of Site Content with attribution to Luxury Beverly Hills Homes and, where practicable, a link to the Site, provided the quotation is accurate and not misleading. This license does not cover republishing substantial portions of the Site or data owned by third parties, such as Zillow or Redfin, which remain subject to their owners' terms.
15. Intellectual property; limited license
The Site and Site Content, including text, translations, graphics, data compilations, calculators and software, and their selection and arrangement, are owned by the Operator or its licensors and are protected by United States and international intellectual property laws. You receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to view the Site for lawful purposes. Except as allowed in the section on citation above, no Site Content may be copied, republished, distributed or exploited commercially without the Operator's prior written consent.
16. Submissions
If you send corrections, dispute materials or feedback to the Operator, you grant the Operator a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide license to use, reproduce, modify and publish that submission in connection with the Site, and you represent that you have the right to grant it and that the submission is accurate. This section does not apply to the personal details in an inquiry, which the Privacy Policy covers.
17. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SITE AND ALL SITE CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE OPERATOR OR THROUGH THE SITE CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.
18. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE OPERATOR AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL OR DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR ANY SITE CONTENT, INCLUDING ANY ERROR, OMISSION, RANKING, CALCULATOR RESULT, COMMENTARY OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT, AND ANY RELIANCE ON THEM, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE OPERATOR'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID THE OPERATOR IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS ($100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS, IN WHICH CASE THEY APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED.
19. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Operator and its affiliates, officers, employees and agents from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of your breach of these Terms, your submissions, your violation of any law or third-party right, or your use of the Site or Site Content other than as these Terms allow.
20. Governing law; dispute resolution; jury waiver
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Site are governed by the laws of the State of New Hampshire, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site, including any tort claim, shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules, held in Concord or Manchester, New Hampshire or, at your election, by video conference. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this section limits any right you have under the law of your state of residence that cannot be waived by agreement. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND THE OPERATOR EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SITE.
21. English and Chinese versions
The Site and these Terms are published in English and in Simplified Chinese. The Chinese version is provided for convenience. If the two versions conflict, the English version controls.
22. Changes to these Terms
The Operator may revise these Terms at any time by posting the revised version on the Site with a new effective date. Revisions take effect when posted, and your continued use of the Site afterwards means you accept them. The Operator may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice or liability. These Terms are effective November 3, 2026.
23. General provisions
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the rest remain in force. No waiver of any term is a further or continuing waiver. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and the Operator about the Site. You may not assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without the Operator's consent; the Operator may assign these Terms without restriction. The sections on accuracy, third-party content, no brokerage relationship, corrections, disputes, no professional advice, intellectual property, submissions, warranties, liability, indemnification and governing law survive any end of your use of the Site.
