Submitting a form does not create an agency relationship or obligate you to work with Karen Edgcombe or Maine Real Estate Co.

Home Value Requests

If you request a home value analysis, information such as your property address, contact information, selling timeline, and property details may be used to research your property and prepare a personalized comparative market analysis.

Home value analyses are estimates based on available market information and are not appraisals or guarantees of a future sale price.

How Information May Be Shared

We do not sell your personal information in exchange for money.

Information may be shared when reasonably necessary with service providers that help operate the website or provide requested services, including website hosting, email, customer relationship management, analytics, and similar technology providers.

Information may also be shared with Maine Real Estate Co or other professionals involved in providing a service you specifically request or authorize.

We may disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, users, or website.

Wix and Third-Party Services

This website is built and hosted using Wix. Wix may process certain information and use cookies or similar technologies necessary to operate, secure, and improve the website.

The website may also include integrations or content from third-party services such as Instagram, YouTube, analytics providers, or advertising platforms. These services may collect information according to their own privacy policies.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

This website may use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions, analytics, performance, and, where enabled, advertising or marketing purposes.

You may also control cookies through your browser settings.

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries, provide requested services, maintain business records, comply with legal obligations, and operate the business.

Your Choices and Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, which may include requesting access to, correction of, or deletion of information we maintain about you.

You may contact us at any time regarding your personal information or to ask that we stop using information for marketing purposes.
