Terms and Conditions

TERMS & CONDITIONS

Last Updated: December 2025


1. INTRODUCTION & AGREEMENT

Welcome to UseRecon.com, a website owned and operated by UseRecon.com LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company (“UseRecon.com,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms & Conditions (“Agreement”) govern your access to and use of the UseRecon.com website and its services.

By accessing or using this website, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms & Conditions and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the website.

You represent that you are at least 18 years old and capable of entering a legally binding agreement.


2. ABOUT US — IMPORTANT ENTITY SEPARATION

UseRecon.com LLC is NOT a real estate brokerage.
UseRecon.com LLC does NOT provide real estate representation, brokerage services, contract assistance, negotiation services, or legal advice.

Affiliated Ownership Disclosure

UseRecon.com LLC is owned by the same individuals who also own RECON Real Estate LLC, a Tennessee-licensed real estate brokerage (“RECON Real Estate”).
The two entities operate entirely separately.

  • UseRecon.com LLC = FSBO advertising platform

  • RECON Real Estate = licensed real estate brokerage

Your use of UseRecon.com does not create any agency, client, fiduciary, or brokerage relationship with RECON Real Estate or any licensed real estate agent.

Hiring RECON Real Estate requires a separate listing agreement, separate fees, and a separate legal relationship.


3. TEMPORARY MLS / REALTRACS DISCLOSURE

UseRecon.com LLC is not a participant in RealTracs or any MLS.

One of the owners (Eddie Hutchinson) temporarily holds a RealTracs participant account in his separate capacity as a licensed real estate broker, only until RECON Real Estate designates a new Principal Broker.

This temporary MLS participation:

  • Does not relate to UseRecon.com LLC

  • Does not convert FSBO listings into MLS listings

  • Does not create a brokerage relationship

UseRecon.com listings are NOT MLS listings and do NOT trigger Clear Cooperation unless and until a separate listing agreement with RECON Real Estate is signed.


4. CLEAR COOPERATION & PUBLIC MARKETING DISCLAIMERS

The Clear Cooperation Policy applies only to brokerage-listed properties.

Because UseRecon.com is an FSBO platform:

  • FSBO listings on UseRecon.com are not MLS listings

  • FSBO listings do not trigger the Clear Cooperation 1-day rule

  • RECON Real Estate agents may not publicly market a FSBO listing unless a listing agreement has been signed

Sellers who choose to later hire RECON Real Estate will be required to sign a new listing agreement, at which point Clear Cooperation rules apply.


5. WHAT USERECON.COM DOES (PLATFORM DESCRIPTION)

UseRecon.com provides:

  • An online advertising space where private owners may list their property for sale or rent

  • Tools that help sellers display photos, descriptions, and contact information

  • Optional paid marketing enhancements (if offered)

UseRecon.com is strictly a publishing and advertising platform for user-generated content.


6. WHAT USERECON.COM DOES NOT DO

UseRecon.com LLC does NOT:

  • Provide legal advice

  • Act as an agent for buyers or sellers

  • List any property in the MLS

  • Market properties as a licensed agent or brokerage

7. USER RESPONSIBILITIES & ACCURACY OF INFORMATION
