These terms cover use of this website.
If you are an Exit First client, the Client Terms govern your engagement. They are incorporated by reference into every Property Engagement Order and control over anything on this page.
These terms govern your use of getexitfirst.com and describe how engagements with Exit First work. By using this site you accept them.
A signed engagement agreement, where one exists, controls over anything on this page.
Who you are contracting with
Maximum Consulting Group LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, doing business as Exit First ("Exit First," "we," "us," or "our") is the party to every engagement, invoice, and agreement made under the Exit First name.
Exit First is a trade name of Maximum Consulting Group LLC. The company, not the brand, is your counterparty, and it is the entity bound by these terms and by any engagement agreement you sign.
What Exit First does
Exit First provides deal analysis, underwriting, rehab scoping and budgeting, and transaction coordination for real estate investors. Services are described on the Services page.
Exit First works with investors nationwide.
What Exit First is not
We are not your attorney, accountant, or financial adviser. Nothing on this site and nothing delivered in an engagement is legal, tax, or investment advice. Creative finance structures, subject-to, seller financing, wraps, and the rest, carry legal and financial risk that varies by state and by deal. Have your own attorney and tax professional review any structure before you sign.
Our analysis is an opinion, not an appraisal. ARV figures, rehab ranges, exit comparisons, and maximum allowable offers are opinions of value based on the data available at the time. They are not appraisals, they are not guarantees, and they are not a substitute for your own due diligence. Markets move and conditions change.
We do not guarantee outcomes. We do not promise a deal will close, fund, appraise, sell, rent, or produce any particular profit. You decide whether to buy, and you carry that risk.
Coordination is not brokerage representation. Transaction coordination and analysis are administrative and advisory services. Exit First is not a brokerage, does not act as your real estate agent or broker in any state, and owes you no agency or fiduciary duties.
No brokerage or agency services, in any state. Exit First provides transaction coordination, deal analysis, and rehab coordination. We do not act as your real estate broker or agent, do not provide agency representation, and do not perform any activity requiring a real estate license, in Arizona or anywhere else. Where a transaction requires a licensee, you engage one directly and we coordinate around them.
The strategy call
The strategy call is free. Its duration is stated on the Book a Call page.
Completing the deal intake form is required before scheduling. We review what you send before the call, which is what the call is for. We may decline to schedule, or may end an engagement conversation, where the intake is incomplete or the deal falls outside what we work on.
Nothing said on a strategy call creates an engagement. An engagement begins when a package is agreed and the deposit is paid.
Show up prepared. Rescheduling is fine with reasonable notice. Repeated no-shows may end our willingness to work together.
Engagements, fees, and payment
Package prices are listed on the Services page and are the prices in effect when you engage. Payment terms are stated with each package.
Deposits are non-refundable. Each package is billed as a deposit due at engagement and a balance due at closing, except where a package is stated as payable in full up front. The deposit pays for work that begins immediately: analysis, scope preparation, document coordination, and title placement. It is earned as that work is performed.
All fees are non-refundable once work has begun, and no refunds are issued. This applies whether you cancel, walk from a deal, change strategy, or the transaction fails to close for any reason. What you receive instead is the work itself: every deliverable completed at the point the engagement ends is yours to keep and use without restriction, including on a different property.
Where a balance is due at closing and the transaction does not close, that balance is never owed.
All package fees are flat. We do not take a percentage of your proceeds on any engagement.
Exit First prices every transaction structure the same. Complexity is not billed as an upcharge.
How we communicate
On an active engagement, most messages are answered the same or the next business day, and every active file gets a written status as the deal moves rather than only when you ask.
We work Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm Arizona time, excluding federal holidays.
This describes how we ordinarily work. It is not a guarantee, a service level agreement, or a commitment to any response time, and no credit, discount, or refund is owed for response or update timing. Section 5.4 of the Client Terms governs, and nothing on this website changes it.
Ongoing rehab tracking
Where a package includes weekly rehab tracking, draw tracking, and change order review, those are included for 60 days from the start of the rehab. After 60 days, ongoing tracking continues at $350 per month, billed monthly, and may be cancelled at any time. The scope of work, budget, draw schedule, and timeline are yours to keep whether or not tracking continues.
If a transaction does not close
Deals fail. The payment structure is designed so that a failed deal does not leave you paying for work that was never performed.
For ANALYST, the deliverable is the product. It is delivered whether or not you acquire the property, and it is yours to keep. The fee is non-refundable and no balance is owed.
For BUILDER, the scope of work, budget, draw schedule, and timeline remain yours in full, and may be used on a different property or given to a different contractor. The deposit is non-refundable.
For CLOSER, the balance due at closing is not owed if the file does not close. The deposit paid at engagement is non-refundable, and every deliverable completed by that point, the document set, title work, and file record, is yours to keep.
No refunds are issued under this section. What you retain is the completed work.
Your responsibilities
You are responsible for the accuracy of what you give us. Our work product is only as good as the inputs. If the numbers, terms, seller conversations, or property conditions you provide are wrong or incomplete, the analysis built on them will be too.
You are responsible for your own decisions, for your own legal and tax review, and for complying with the laws that apply to how you acquire and dispose of property.
You agree not to misuse this site, attempt to gain unauthorized access to it, or use it to send unsolicited commercial messages.
Deliverables and confidentiality
Deliverables we prepare for you, meaning analyses, scopes, budgets, and document packages, are yours to use for the deal they were prepared for. The underlying templates, models, methods, and formats remain ours.
We treat deal information you share with us as confidential and share it only as needed to perform the work or as the law requires. Deal specifics are not used in marketing without your permission.
Referrals and vendor compensation
Exit First maintains a bench of vendors: funding, title and escrow, contractors, insurance, and loan servicing. We make introductions as part of an engagement.
Most of those introductions are made at no cost and Exit First receives no compensation for them.
Where Exit First is compensated by a vendor, that compensation is disclosed on the page where the referral appears. As of the date above, this applies to earnest money and transactional funding: Exit First receives compensation when a client funds through the referral link on the EMD and transactional funding page. That compensation is paid by the funder, adds nothing to your cost, and does not affect the rate or terms you are offered.
Exit First is not a lender, mortgage broker, or loan originator. We do not underwrite, approve, price, or negotiate funding, and we do not receive or hold your loan proceeds. Any funding agreement is between you and the funder, on their terms, and you are responsible for reviewing those terms before you sign.
Funding a deposit does not make a deal a good deal. Advanced funds are generally repayable whether or not a transaction closes, including where earnest money becomes non-refundable and is lost. Confirm repayment obligations with the funder directly.
Third-party services and trademarks
This site uses third-party services for scheduling, payment processing, and hosting. Their terms and privacy practices govern their portions of the experience.
Community marks displayed on this site are the trademarks of their respective owners. Exit First is an independent company, is not an authorized representative of those organizations, and those marks indicate community participation only.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Exit First's total liability arising out of or relating to the services or this site is limited to the fees you paid for the engagement giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for lost profits, lost deals, lost opportunity, or other indirect or consequential damages.
This site is provided as is, without warranties of any kind.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflict of law rules. Disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Maricopa County, Arizona.
Changes
We may update these terms. The date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept it.
