M & J FL Realty LLC (operating as Qualified House Buyers and FL House Buyers, "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect from you, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. It applies to qualifiedhousebuyers.com and to information we collect when you contact us by phone, text message, email, mail, or through any of our marketing channels.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in three ways: information you provide directly, information collected automatically when you use our website, and information from public records and third-party sources.
Information you provide: When you submit our cash offer request form, call our office, send us a text message, respond to a mailing, or otherwise contact us, you may provide your name, property address, mailing address, phone number, email address, information about the property's condition, your ownership status, and your reason for selling. If we move forward toward a purchase, additional information may include identification documents, mortgage information, lien information, and other details needed to close a real estate transaction.
Information collected automatically: When you visit our website, we automatically collect IP address, browser type, device information, referring URL, pages visited, time spent on pages, and similar usage data. We use Google Analytics, Google Ads conversion tracking, and may use other analytics or advertising pixels to understand site traffic and measure marketing effectiveness.
Information from third-party sources: As a real estate investor, we routinely review publicly available data including property tax records, mortgage records, deed records, probate filings, code-enforcement records, and other public-records sources. We also work with data providers that aggregate and license public-records data. We may match information from these sources with information you provide to better evaluate your property.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiry and contact you about your property;
- Evaluate your property and prepare a cash offer;
- Communicate with you by phone, text message (SMS), email, and direct mail about your potential sale and related real estate matters;
- Process a real estate transaction if we and you reach an agreement, including coordinating with title companies, closing attorneys, lien holders, and other professionals required to close;
- Comply with legal obligations including tax reporting, anti-money-laundering requirements, and applicable real estate regulations;
- Improve our website, marketing, and services;
- Send periodic follow-up communications about your property if you have not yet decided to sell; and
- Measure the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising.
3. Text Messages (SMS) and Phone Calls
By submitting your phone number through our website form, by calling us, or by otherwise providing your phone number to us, you consent to receive phone calls and text messages from M & J FL Realty LLC and our representatives regarding your property and our cash-offer process. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies based on your situation.
To stop text messages at any time, reply STOP to any message we send you, or contact us at info@qualifiedhousebuyers.com. To opt out of phone calls, request to be added to our internal Do Not Call list by emailing info@qualifiedhousebuyers.com or by telling our representative during any call.
Standard message and data rates from your mobile carrier may apply. We do not charge for messages; your carrier may.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We do not rent, lease, or trade your personal information to other companies for their independent marketing use.
We share your information only in these limited circumstances:
- Service providers and vendors: Companies that help us operate the business, including marketing platforms, customer relationship management (CRM) software, email and SMS service providers, dialer software, mailing services, and analytics providers. These vendors are contractually limited to using your information only to provide services to us.
- Real estate transaction professionals: If we move toward purchasing your property, we will share information as needed with title companies, escrow agents, closing attorneys, lien holders, county recorders, and similar parties to complete the transaction.
- Joint venture and partner buyers: Occasionally, we may share property details with vetted joint-venture investor partners or other buyers in our network if your property fits their criteria better than ours. We share only the information needed to evaluate the property, and we only do so when we believe it serves your interest in selling.
- Legal compliance: When required by law, court order, subpoena, government investigation, or to protect our legal rights, the rights of others, or to prevent fraud or harm.
- Business transfers: If M & J FL Realty LLC or any of its assets are acquired by, merged with, or transferred to another company, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
