The Guardian Real Estate Team
Effective Date: January 8, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of services provided by The Guardian Real Estate Team, including its affiliated licensed real estate agents (“Agent,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By engaging our services, visiting our website, or participating in a real estate transaction with us, you agree to these Terms.
1. Role of the Real Estate Agent
The Guardian Real Estate Team, licensed under Realty Professionals of Topeka as broker, provides licensed real estate brokerage services in accordance with Kansas law. Our role is to represent buyers and/or sellers in real estate transactions by facilitating negotiations, preparing contracts using approved forms, coordinating with third-party professionals, and guiding clients through the transaction process.
We do not:
-
Perform legal services
-
Perform inspections or construction evaluations
-
Provide tax, accounting, insurance, or financial advice
-
Guarantee the condition, value, or future performance of any property
Clients are encouraged to consult qualified professionals for legal, financial, tax, inspection, engineering, insurance, and repair matters.
2. No Guarantee of Outcomes
While we use reasonable skill, experience, and diligence, real estate transactions involve inherent risks. We do not guarantee:
-
That a property will sell or close
-
Sale price, timing, or market performance
-
Loan approval or financing terms

Appraisal outcomes
-
Inspection results or repair negotiations
Any market analysis, pricing guidance, or estimated timelines are opinions only, not guarantees.
3. Third-Party Services & Realty Guardian Protections
Certain transactions may include access to Realty Guardian protection services (“RG Protections”), which are offered by an independent third-party provider and not by the real estate agent or brokerage.
Important Clarifications:
-
RG Protections are not insurance
-
RG Protections are not warranties
-
RG Protections do not replace inspections, legal review, or due diligence
-
Coverage terms, limits, eligibility, and exclusions are governed solely by the Realty Guardian Protection Agreement, not these Terms
The Guardian Real Estate Team does not administer, adjudicate, approve, deny, or pay claims related to RG Protections.
