2. Description of Services
GOTOHOMETM provides marketing and membership services which may include:
- Directory placement
- Profile hosting
- Marketing exposure
- Consumer introductions
- City-based placement opportunities
GOTOHOMETM does not guarantee consumer inquiries, transactions, commissions, income, business volume, or specific results.
3. Changes to Agreement
GOTOHOMETM reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Services following any updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
4. Membership Term
Featured Membership is billed monthly and renews automatically each month unless canceled in accordance with Section 13. There is no minimum commitment.
5. Member Requirements
Members must maintain all applicable professional licenses, remain in good standing with their governing regulatory bodies, and provide accurate and current information to GOTOHOMETM.
Members are solely responsible for compliance with all local, state, federal, broker, MLS, licensing, advertising, and regulatory requirements applicable to their profession.
6. CaliforniaGOTM Buyer Credit
The CaliforniaGOTM buyer credit is a core part of how the platform attracts homebuyers, and is required of all Realtor Members.
Any real estate Member who accepts, receives, services, or participates in a buyer-side transaction involving a Customer originating through the GOTOHOMETM and/or CaliforniaGOTM platform agrees to provide a buyer credit equal to 10% of the gross commission earned on that transaction, subject to:
- Broker approval
- Escrow procedures and instructions
- Lender guidelines
- Applicable law and regulatory requirements
Any buyer credit shall be disclosed and processed through escrow by the participating brokerage and escrow company.
GOTOHOMETM does not hold, distribute, or disburse commission funds or buyer credits.
Loan Officers, Loan Brokers, Mortgage Brokers, Mortgage Loan Originators, and other lending professionals are excluded from buyer credit obligations except where expressly permitted by applicable law and agreed to separately in writing.
Members acknowledge that all commission structures, buyer credits, and transaction-related compensation remain subject to the policies of the Member’s employing broker and all applicable laws and regulations.
7. Referral Fees
Featured Members owe no GOTOHOMETM referral fees while their membership remains active and in good standing.
If a Featured Membership is canceled or lapses, and the former Member later closes a transaction with a GOTOHOMETM Referred Customer who was introduced while the membership was active, a 10% broker-to-broker referral fee payable to GOTOHOMETM applies to that transaction, due upon closing and subject to broker approval, escrow procedures, and an executed referral agreement.
Legacy Founding Members remain subject to the referral fee terms in effect when they registered, as described in Section 10, unless they convert to Featured Membership.
Listing-side exemption: GOTOHOMETM referral fee obligations never apply to listing-side commissions earned from listings independently generated by the Member.
Loan Officers, Loan Brokers, Mortgage Brokers, Mortgage Loan Originators, and other lending professionals are excluded from referral fee obligations except where expressly permitted by applicable law.
All referral fees remain subject to broker approval, escrow procedures, licensing regulations, and applicable law.
7A. Registration Distribution
GOTOHOMETM distributes homebuyer and homeowner registrations submitted through CaliforniaGOTM to Members in two ways:
- Individual Member Page registrations: When a consumer completes CaliforniaGOTM registration directly from a specific Member’s individual page, that registration is sent to that Member immediately.
- Round-robin distribution: All other CaliforniaGOTM registrations are personally reviewed by GOTOHOMETM and, if qualified, distributed among the Featured Members in the Customer’s city on a round-robin basis.
Founding Member first registration. Each city’s Founding Member receives the first qualified round-robin registration in that city for their professional category, before any other Member in that city. After that, registrations are distributed on a round-robin basis among all Featured Members in that city and category. This applies only to the order of round-robin delivery; it does not restrict or delay registrations completed directly from another Member’s individual Member Page.
GOTOHOMETM does not guarantee the timing, volume, frequency, quality, or transactional outcome of any registration, and reserves the right to modify distribution criteria or methodology at any time, except for the Founding Member first-registration order described above.
8. City Structure
Featured city placement is limited to:
- 3 Realtors per city
- 3 Loan Professionals per city
The first Realtor and the first Loan Professional to activate a Featured Membership in each city become that city’s Founding Members. Founding Members receive the first-registration order described in Section 7A and the $99/month rate locked for 12 months from activation, as described in Section 11. Founding status does not make a Member the only Member in their city; GOTOHOMETM may activate additional Featured Members in the same city at any time, up to the limits above.
Availability is determined solely by GOTOHOMETM and may change at any time. GOTOHOMETM‘s own professional listings are not counted toward the per-city limits.
8A. GOTOHOMETM Founder Listing Policy
In cities where no independent Realtor or Loan Professional Member is currently registered, GOTOHOMETM may feature its own founder or an affiliated professional listing to maintain continued visibility and service to consumers in that city.
GOTOHOMETM will remove its own listing from a city within 24 hours of a paying Member’s registration being approved in that city and professional category.
This policy does not affect a Member’s placement or any other rights described in Sections 8 and 10.
9. Brokerage & City Limits
- One Member per brokerage per city
- Members may represent only one city at a time unless otherwise approved in writing
10. Membership, Fees & Billing

LEGACY FOUNDING CALIFORNIAGO MEMBERSHIPTM
The FOUNDING CALIFORNIAGO MEMBERSHIPTM one-time-fee plan closed to new registrations on October 19, 2026. Members who registered under that plan before that date keep the terms in effect when they registered, including their one-time fee, the stated end date of their plan, and the referral fee and buyer credit terms that applied at registration.
A Legacy Founding Member may convert to Featured Membership at any time, at which point the Featured Membership terms above apply, including no referral fees while active. When a Legacy Founding Member’s plan reaches its stated end date, the Member will be offered Featured Membership in their same city or any available city. A Member who does not convert within 30 days of the plan end date will have their membership and Member Page deactivated.
11. Auto-Renewal, Billing & Pricing
Featured Members authorize automatic recurring monthly billing until canceled in accordance with Section 13.
Members are responsible for maintaining valid payment information. A membership whose payment fails and is not corrected may be suspended until payment is received.
GOTOHOMETM reserves the right to modify pricing, membership structures, or included services prospectively at any time, with advance notice to Members in good standing of any material pricing change.
Founding Member rate lock: Each city’s Founding Members keep the $99/month rate for 12 months from activation, regardless of any pricing change during that period, provided the membership remains active and in good standing.
12. No Refund Policy
All fees are non-refundable, including monthly membership fees and any one-time fee paid by a Legacy Founding Member. All sales are final.
13. Cancellation
Featured Members may cancel at any time. To avoid the next monthly charge, cancellation must be received at least 10 days before the next billing date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid month, and the membership and Member Page remain active until then.
Legacy Founding Members have no recurring billing and need not cancel; their membership ends as described in Section 10.
14. Legal
Standard legal provisions including limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, arbitration, and applicable governing law apply to the fullest extent permitted by law.
GOTOHOMETM reserves all rights not expressly granted herein.
