The provided Offer Score cannot take into account all potentially relevant details of the offer or buyer, whether known or unknown to us. You acknowledge and agree that any Offer Score is provided by us as an accommodation to you without any warranty as to its accuracy.

Therefore, neither PoweredByNILE, our agents, or representatives make any warranties prior to the close of escrow as to the precise amount of estimated closing costs including transfer taxes and fees charged.
