These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Market Watchers website and the Market Watchers newsletter (together, the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. The Service
Market Watchers publishes commentary and information about real estate markets, primarily for real estate professionals in the Midwest United States. The newsletter is delivered by email through our email service provider, beehiiv, and selected content is republished on this website.
2. Not Professional Advice
Content on the Service is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not, and should not be relied upon as, investment, financial, legal, tax, appraisal, or brokerage advice, and it does not create any client or fiduciary relationship. Market conditions change quickly and vary by location; always verify information independently and consult qualified professionals before acting on anything you read here.
3. Subscriptions
Subscribing to the newsletter is free. You may unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every email. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the newsletter or any part of the Service at any time.

The Service and its content — including text, graphics, logos, and design — are owned by Market Watchers or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may share links to our content and quote brief excerpts with attribution. You may not republish, sell, or systematically reproduce substantial portions of the Service without our prior written permission.
