House rules

• Domestic Real Estate is a marketplace, not a buyer, lender, brokerage or tax adviser. Never write copy implying we buy property, lend, or give individualised legal or tax advice.
• No invented statistics, averages, client results or testimonials. If a number cannot be sourced, describe the mechanism instead of quoting a figure.
• Cite Texas statute by section where the article relies on it, and note that exemptions apply.
• Add a closing legal/advice disclaimer on anything touching law, tax or lending.
• Fill in seo_title, meta_description, secondary_keywords and faq_schema before publishing. The FAQ schema must match visible on-page questions.
