2. Not professional advice
Everything on this site is general information for educational purposes only. It is not legal, tax, or financial advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client or any other professional relationship. We are not attorneys, accountants, or financial advisors. Laws and programs change and vary by state — verify anything important with a licensed professional in your state before acting on it.
3. Use of content
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to read and use the site's content for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not republish, redistribute, or commercially exploit our content without written permission. All site content, design, and branding are owned by Practical Landlord; third-party trademarks and product names mentioned belong to their respective owners.
4. No warranties
THE SITE AND ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT INFORMATION ON THE SITE IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR CURRENT.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PRACTICAL LANDLORD WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SITE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM IS LIMITED TO $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THESE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
6. Third-party links
The site links to third-party websites, including affiliate merchants and government sources. We are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices.
