  • Reviewing content (if in approval mode) before it publishes
  • Ensuring content complies with all applicable laws
  • Ensuring content complies with the terms of each platform (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok)
  • Any legal or financial consequences of content published from your accounts

DGI is not responsible for content that violates laws, platform terms, or this AUP. You agree to indemnify DGI as described in the Terms of Service.

5. Real Estate-Specific Rules

Because the Service is specifically designed for real estate investors, the following rules apply:

5.1 Licensing

If your state requires a real estate license to perform certain activities (e.g., brokerage, representation of sellers, advertising property for sale on behalf of others), you confirm that you hold the required license or that your activities do not require one.

5.2 Wholesaling Restrictions

Several states have restrictions on wholesaling real estate (e.g., Illinois, Oklahoma). You are responsible for understanding and complying with the laws of your state.

5.3 Property Advertising

Do not advertise specific properties for sale that you do not own or have the legal right to advertise.

5.4 Solicitation Rules

Some states and municipalities restrict direct solicitation of homeowners facing foreclosure. You are responsible for complying with these rules.

5.5 Fair Housing Compliance

All content must comply with fair housing laws. You may not:

  • Target or exclude protected classes
  • Use language that suggests preference based on protected characteristics
  • Refuse to work with potential sellers based on protected characteristics
