Terms of Service

To use HomenowLex services you must be legally able to enter into contracts in your province and provide verifiable identification when required. Certain services are available only to residents of Canada and may require local information such as municipal records or a Canadian mailing address.

Clients must have the legal age to enter binding contracts in their province (commonly 18 or 19). If you are under that age, a parent or legal guardian should engage services on your behalf and accept responsibility for decisions made in the transaction.

Services must be used in a lawful manner. You must not use HomenowLex for fraudulent purposes, to facilitate illegal activity, or to submit false documentation. Practical case guidance and checklists must not be repurposed to mislead third parties.

While HomenowLex provides guidance primarily for clients in Canada, some informational resources may be accessible internationally. Legal advice delivered through our service is intended for Canadian jurisdictions and may not apply elsewhere.

Creating an account may be required to access secure client portals, upload transaction documents, or track case progress. Account access enables collaboration between clients and HomenowLex legal staff in a secured environment.

You are responsible for providing accurate, complete and up-to-date information. Example scenario: an incorrect municipal roll number delays a title search; clients should promptly correct such data to avoid delays.

Protect your login credentials. Notify HomenowLex immediately if you suspect unauthorized access. We implement technical controls but access security also depends on client practices such as strong passwords and two-factor authentication where offered.

Accounts are personal and non-transferable without prior written consent from HomenowLex. Transfers may be considered in specific business-sale scenarios but require verification and formal document updates.

If your account is compromised, notify us at [email protected] and follow the incident guidance provided in the client portal. We will work with you to secure your account and mitigate any potential impacts to an active apartment purchase file.

We may suspend accounts for suspected fraud, legal compliance issues, or repeated breaches of these Terms. Suspensions are used to protect client files and privacy while an contribute proceeds.

HomenowLex provides practical legal support for apartment purchases including document review, title searches, drafting and negotiation of purchase agreements, closing coordination, and guidance on common issues such as condo bylaws or encumbrances. Services are delivered by qualified legal professionals or supervised staff. Example case: we assisted a buyer in identifying a restrictive covenant during due diligence and coordinated remedies with the seller.

We may modify, add, or remove services. When possible, clients engaged in an active matter will be notified and provided options to complete or transition their files. Changes are illustrated with prior case scenarios so clients understand potential impacts on timelines or fees.

Availability of specific services depends on jurisdictional rules, staff availability, and access to third-party records (registries, condo corporations). We do not warrant uninterrupted access to third-party systems or databases used to support a transaction.

To ensure fair and secure use of HomenowLex services, users must comply with the following rules. Examples of breaches and corrective steps are provided to help avoid common pitfalls.

• Provide truthful information and promptly update any changes relevant to your transaction (e.g., mortgage lender details).
• Do not upload forged or altered documents. If such material is detected, engagement may be suspended and legal obligations may require reporting.
• Use the client portal for authorized documents only; do not attempt to access other clients' files or restricted areas.
• Respect scheduling and meeting protocols; repeated no-shows that impede service delivery may lead to rescheduling fees.
• Follow instructions for secure file transmission; avoid sending sensitive documents through unsecured channels.
• Refrain from abusive or harassing communications toward staff. Disputes should be raised through formal channels described below.
• Comply with applicable laws and regulatory obligations in your province related to property transactions; we provide guidance but clients bear responsibility for local compliance.

User content includes documents, messages, and materials you upload while using HomenowLex services. We use such content to provide legal support and to maintain matter files.

You retain ownership of documents and content you submit, subject to necessary licenses granted to HomenowLex for the purpose of delivering services and complying with legal retention requirements.

By submitting content you grant HomenowLex a non-exclusive, limited license to store, reproduce, and use that content solely to perform requested services, communicate with third parties involved in the transaction, and comply with legal obligations.

You are responsible for ensuring that user content does not infringe third-party rights and that you have the authority to provide the documents. If a dispute arises regarding ownership, HomenowLex may suspend use pending resolution.

Requests to remove user content will be processed in line with privacy rights, subject to legal retention and obligations tied to real estate transactions. Removal may not be possible if records are required for closing or regulatory compliance.

All site content, templates, checklists, and materials provided by HomenowLex are protected intellectual property. You may use materials provided to you for your own apartment purchase matter but may not reproduce or redistribute them for commercial use without permission.

• Do not copy or republish HomenowLex proprietary templates for resale or commercial distribution.
• Do not remove proprietary notices or claims of ownership from downloaded materials.
• Requests for licensing educational or commercial reuse of content can be made via [email protected].

Certain services such as detailed title reports, extended negotiation support, or representation at closing may be subject to fees. Fees are disclosed in engagement letters and invoices prior to commencement of work.

Pricing is based on the scope of work and complexity. Examples: a basic document review for a standard condo purchase will typically be billed differently than a layered multi-unit appraisal review that requires third-party experts.

Payments may be accepted by electronic transfer, credit card, or other methods listed on invoices. Payments are due as specified in the engagement agreement.

Where subscription services are offered (for example, regular market bulletins or checklist updates), terms specific to subscription billing and renewal will be provided at sign-up.

Refunds are evaluated case-by-case. If work has been completed, partial refunds may not be available for services already performed. Example: time spent preparing a negotiated amendment is billed for work performed even if the transaction later terminates.

Clients may cancel services subject to the terms in their engagement agreement. Cancellation may require payment for work already performed and for third-party expenses incurred on the client’s behalf.

Applicable taxes will be added to invoices and are the responsibility of the client unless otherwise stated. Tax treatment may vary by province.

HomenowLex may update pricing to reflect changes in operating costs or service scope. Existing engagements will be billed according to the rates in effect at the time of agreement unless otherwise stated.

Unpaid invoices may lead to suspension of services, removal from active scheduling, or referral to collection. We will notify clients and provide a period to rectify outstanding amounts.

Information provided by HomenowLex, including case examples and templates, is intended to assist clients in apartment purchase matters and illustrate typical scenarios. It does not replace personalized legal advice tailored to your specific circumstances. For complex legal issues, clients should seek direct counsel from the legal professional assigned to their file.

To the extent permitted by law, HomenowLex’s liability for direct damages arising from our services is limited to amounts paid by the client for the specific service in question. We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses such as lost rental revenue or predictive damages. Examples illustrate common outcomes but do not predict specific case results.

HomenowLex may engage third-party providers (title searchers, surveyors, experts) to support a transaction. While we exercise due care in selection, third-party actions and systems are outside our direct control; clients authorize information sharing with necessary third parties to complete their matter.

Either party may terminate an engagement in accordance with the engagement agreement. Termination does not relieve the client of obligations to pay for services already performed or for third-party costs incurred.

Upon termination, HomenowLex will provide a final accounting and return or retain records as required by law. Practical consequences may include delays in closing or the need to transfer files to a successor service provider.

HomenowLex processes personal information in accordance with its Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy explains collection, use, retention and disclosure practices and how to exercise privacy rights.

We will communicate through the client portal, email, or phone for transactional updates. Clients should maintain current contact details to ensure timely coordination for time-sensitive steps such as deposit deadlines or closing instructions.

We may revise these Terms to reflect legal or operational changes. Material revisions will be posted on HomenowLex.club with the effective date and a summary of substantive changes.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Manitoba and the federal laws of Canada. Where disputes arise, Manitoba law will apply to interpretation and enforcement.

If a dispute arises, parties should first attempt to resolve it through direct communication or mediation. If unresolved, disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of Manitoba courts. We provide examples of typical dispute pathways on request to help clients understand procedural steps.
