Terms of use.

1. What Ashworth & Vale is

Ashworth & Vale is a property marketplace. Owners publish listings for homes, land, commercial premises and garages; visitors browse those listings and contact owners directly through our enquiry and viewing-request forms.

We are a venue, not an estate agent. We do not inspect properties, verify every listing, negotiate on anyone's behalf, or take part in any contract between you and another user.

2. Your account

You need a free account to publish listings and to receive enquiries in your dashboard. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in details confidential and for everything that happens under your account.

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or publish a listing.

3. Listing rules

When you publish a listing you confirm that you own the property or are authorised to market it, that the details and price are accurate, and that any photos you use are yours or properly licensed.

Do not list anything that is not property or land, post misleading prices, or include contact details intended to take enquiries off-platform in a deceptive way. We may remove listings that break these rules or that we reasonably believe are fraudulent.

4. Enquiries and viewings

Messages and viewing requests sent through the site are passed to the listing owner. We do not guarantee a response, and any viewing, negotiation or transaction that follows is strictly between you and the owner.

Always take sensible precautions: view a property before paying anything, never send deposits to unverified accounts, and use a qualified conveyancer or solicitor for any purchase or tenancy.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to scrape the site, interfere with its operation, attempt to access other users' accounts or data, or use the marketplace to send spam or unlawful content.

6. Liability

The site is provided “as is”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for losses arising from listings' accuracy, other users' conduct, or transactions made between users. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.

7. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time; the version on this page is the current one. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
