Citadel Cofield

NC Firm License #C31339 · SC Firm License #23860

Last updated: August 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of citadelcofield.com and related pages, tools, and forms operated by Citadel Cofield ("Citadel Cofield," "we," "us," or "our"). Please read them carefully. By using the site, you agree to these Terms. If you submit a form, the checkbox you check is additional confirmation that you agree.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use personal information. It is part of these Terms by reference.

1. Who we are

Citadel Cofield is a licensed real estate brokerage. NC Firm License #C31339. SC Firm License #23860.

Using this website does not create an agency relationship, a brokerage agreement, or any other professional relationship with us. Those relationships begin only when both sides sign the required written agreements and agency disclosures. Browsing listings, using a calculator, or sending a form is not the same thing.

North Carolina and South Carolina agency disclosure forms are posted at /disclosures.

2. Listing and MLS data

Property information on this site comes from MLS feeds and other sources. Feeds can be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. Photos, prices, status, square footage, taxes, schools, and other fields may change without notice.

Listing data is not a comparative market analysis, appraisal, survey, or warranty of condition. Do not rely on it as the sole basis for a purchase, sale, or financing decision. Confirm material facts with your own due diligence and, when you work with us, through a written representation agreement.

MLS data displayed on this site is provided through MLS Grid and is subject to MLS Grid's terms of use. Use of search tools and listing data is for potential buyers and sellers only.

3. Calculators and estimates

The seller net proceeds calculator and any other planning tools on this site are estimates for conversation. They are not a CMA, appraisal, tax opinion, or guarantee of net proceeds, value, offer amount, closing costs, or timeline.

Commission fields are a starting point for planning. Commissions are negotiable and set in a written agreement. They are not an industry standard or a quoted rate.

If you enter an email to unlock a result, we may use that email and the figures you entered to send the estimate and to follow up. See the Privacy Policy for details.

4. Cash-offer and investor introductions

The Get Offer flow may introduce you to third-party investors or other buyers. An introduction is not a recommendation, endorsement, appraisal, or guarantee that an offer will arrive, close, or match any number discussed on the site.

Timing and offer amounts are not guaranteed. You are never obligated to accept an offer. Any transaction with a third-party investor is between you and that party, subject to its own documents. Citadel Cofield is not responsible for an investor's underwriting, fees, delays, or decision not to proceed, except to the extent a written brokerage agreement says otherwise.

5. No professional advice

Site content is general information about real estate in the Carolinas. It is not legal, tax, accounting, insurance, or financial advice. Laws and markets change. Talk with a licensed professional about your situation.

6. Intellectual property

The site, including original text, photographs, video, graphics, logos, and compilation of listing information, is owned by Citadel Cofield or used under license. You may view it for personal, non-commercial use related to buying or selling real estate.

You may not copy, scrape, republish, or commercially reuse listing photos, videos, or data without written permission from the rights holder and, where required, the MLS. Copyright complaints are handled under our DMCA Notice.

7. Prohibited use

You agree not to:

  • Use bots, scrapers, spiders, or other automated means to collect listing data, search results, photos, or other site content
  • Use search tools or listing data for purposes other than considering a purchase or sale of real estate
  • Interfere with site security, access controls, or other users
  • Submit false, misleading, or infringing information through a form
  • Frame the site or remove proprietary notices

We monitor the site for scraping and unauthorized bulk use. These Terms give that notice contractual force. We may block access, pursue civil remedies, and notify MLS or law enforcement.

8. Forms and user submissions

When you submit a form, you represent that the information is accurate and that you are authorized to provide it. You grant us a limited license to use that information to respond, provide services, and operate the business as described in the Privacy Policy.

Submitting a form is a request to be contacted. It is not an agreement that we represent you.

9. Third-party services

The site may link to lenders, maps, MLS providers, investors, and other third parties. Those sites have their own terms. We are not responsible for their content, availability, or practices.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT, LISTING DATA, CALCULATORS, AND INTRODUCTIONS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT LISTING DATA OR ESTIMATES ARE COMPLETE OR CURRENT.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CITADEL COFIELD AND ITS BROKERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, AND AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SITE, LISTING DATA, CALCULATORS, OR INVESTOR INTRODUCTIONS, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US, IF ANY, FOR WEBSITE ACCESS IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

Website access is free, and this cap is meant to match that.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations. In those places, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under North Carolina or South Carolina law, including liability for our own gross negligence or willful misconduct where that bar applies, or duties we owe you under a signed brokerage agreement or license law.

12. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Citadel Cofield and its brokers, agents, and employees from claims, damages, losses, and reasonable attorneys' fees arising out of your misuse of the site, your scraping or automated collection, your violation of these Terms, or content you submit, except to the extent caused by our willful misconduct.

13. Dispute resolution

Please contact us first. Email info@citadelcofield.com with "Dispute Notice" in the subject line and a description of the issue. We will try to resolve it in good faith for 30 days after we receive a complete notice.

If the dispute is not resolved in that period, either you or Citadel Cofield may submit it to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as modified by this section. The Federal Arbitration Act governs interpretation and enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate.

This obligation is mutual. Either party may compel arbitration of a covered dispute. Either party may instead bring an individual claim in small-claims court if the claim qualifies and remains individual.

The arbitration will take place in Charlotte, North Carolina, unless the parties agree otherwise. You may request a remote hearing, and we will not unreasonably withhold consent when AAA rules allow it. The arbitrator may award any relief available in court on an individual basis.

YOU AND CITADEL COFIELD EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Claims may be brought only in an individual capacity. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims of more than one person or preside over any form of class proceeding.

The arbitrator will decide gateway issues of arbitrability, including whether these Terms apply and whether a dispute is covered, except that a court of competent jurisdiction will decide whether the class-action waiver is enforceable.

You may opt out of this arbitration section within 30 days after you first agree to these Terms. Send email to info@citadelcofield.com with the subject "Arbitration Opt-Out," your name, and the email address you used on the site. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

This section does not waive duties we owe under license law, Fair Housing law, or a signed brokerage agreement. Those remain in force.

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the arbitration section. If a court finds the arbitration section unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim may be brought in state or federal courts located in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and you consent to that venue.

15. Changes and termination

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised Terms. We may suspend or end access for any reason, including a violation of these Terms.
