Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of Home Decision Lab, including free calculators, paid reports, dashboards, and related website features. By accessing the site or generating an analysis, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use Home Decision Lab tools or reports.

Informational Use Only

Home Decision Lab provides informational and educational analysis only. Our tools generate estimates, scenarios, checklists, and educational context based on user-provided assumptions, third-party data where available, and internal calculation models.

No Professional Advice or Regulated Services

Home Decision Lab is not a financial institution, mortgage lender, real estate broker, investment advisor, CPA, or attorney. Home Decision Lab does not provide financial, legal, tax, mortgage, investment, accounting, appraisal, inspection, insurance, or real estate advice.

You are responsible for reviewing all assumptions and consulting qualified professionals, including licensed lenders, real estate professionals, tax advisors, attorneys, insurance providers, inspectors, and financial advisors, before making decisions.

No Guarantees

Home Decision Lab does not guarantee accuracy, completeness, outcomes, savings, appreciation, affordability, loan approval, investment return, rental income, resale value, market performance, tax treatment, legal result, or any specific financial or real estate result.

AI Chat Assistant

The AI chat assistant is an educational convenience feature. AI-generated answers may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect, and they are not professional advice. Do not submit sensitive personal information, payment details, passwords, one-time codes, or complete private financial records in the chat.

Your Inputs and Third-Party Data

Results depend heavily on the information you enter and on data that may be incomplete, stale, unavailable, or incorrect. You should independently verify property details, market data, taxes, insurance, financing terms, repair estimates, legal obligations, and other material facts.

Analysis Data and Payments

When you run an analysis, Home Decision Lab may process and store submitted inputs, acceptance confirmations, and calculated results to provide the service, support saving or reopening reports, improve the tools, and create aggregated, non-identifying insights. Paid checkout is processed by Stripe; Home Decision Lab does not directly store full credit card numbers. See our Privacy Policy for more detail.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to misuse the site, attempt to bypass access controls, interfere with service operation, scrape or resell reports at scale, submit unlawful content, or use Home Decision Lab outputs as a substitute for professional review.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes are effective when posted on this page. Continued use of Home Decision Lab after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
