Effective Date: May 5, 2026  ·  HIVO Real Estate  ·  North Central Texas

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the HIVO Real Estate website at hivorealestate.com (the “Site”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

HIVO Real Estate (“HIVO,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a Texas-licensed real estate brokerage (TREC License  #764459-B) serving North Central Texas. These Terms govern your use of our public website, contact forms, home valuation tools, and any other services offered through the Site.

2. Informational Purposes Only

Content on this Site — including neighborhood descriptions, market information, and property data — is provided for general informational purposes only. Nothing on this Site constitutes legal, financial, or investment advice.

Real estate transactions involve complex legal and financial considerations. You should consult a licensed professional before making any buying, selling, or investment decision.

3. Home Valuation Estimates

The “What’s My Home Worth” tool provides an automated estimate based on self-reported property details and general market data. This estimate is not a formal appraisal, Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), or professional opinion of value, and should not be relied upon as such.

Actual market value depends on factors not captured by this tool, including property condition, local micro-market conditions, and current buyer demand. HIVO Real Estate makes no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy of any automated valuation estimate.

By submitting the home valuation form you authorize HIVO Real Estate to contact you regarding your property and real estate services, subject to the consent disclosures provided in the form.

  • Use the Site in any way that violates applicable federal, state, or local law
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Site’s operation or infrastructure

HIVO reserves the right to block or restrict access to any user who violates these Terms.

6. Lead & Inquiry Handling
