Professional Disclaimer

Fiduciary-Grade Operational Warnings and Liability Limitations.

This Professional Disclaimer governs the usage of all technical content and frameworks provided by Entrepreneurs Report and Curtis Waters, MBA. As a professional investor with over 20 years of experience and a licensed Broker-in-Charge in North Carolina and South Carolina, I emphasize that the information shared here is for educational and strategic facilitation purposes only. A clinical Professional Disclaimer is necessary to ensure that you, the investor, maintain your own due diligence standards while utilizing our 2026 market frameworks.

1. Real Estate Strategy and Fiduciary Standing

The Real Estate Strategy content provided on this platform is the result of clinical analysis and a trajectory that has managed over 160 units and approximately $25M in asset value. However, this Professional Disclaimer explicitly states that my status as a licensed Broker-in-Charge (NC #285129 | SC #96431) does not establish a broker-client relationship between the user and Waters & Associates Group LLC through website usage alone. Every real estate market is unique; users must verify all local zoning, tax, and property regulations independently.

2. Investment and Financial Auditing Disclaimer

I approach property valuation through the lens of a **Masters of Business Administration (MBA)** from the Florida Institute of Technology. While we provide clinical hubs for analyzing Net Operating Income (NOI), ROI, and Cap Rates, this Professional Disclaimer clarifies that these metrics are based on variables provided by the user. Curtis Waters and his associates do not guarantee financial outcomes. Past performance within the Hobby Millionaire community or our personal portfolios does not dictate future results.

3. Subject-To Investing and Creative Finance Warning

Subject-To acquisitions involve significant technical risks, most notably the “Due on Sale” clause found in standard mortgage documents. This Professional Disclaimer serves as a formal warning: taking title to a property while the existing financing remains in the seller’s name requires ethical, fiduciary-grade frameworks and transparent disclosure to all parties. Entrepreneurs Report provides the technical mechanics for these acquisitions, but we are not responsible for mortgage accelerations or legal challenges arising from improperly executed creative finance transactions.

4. SDIRA Compliance and IRS Prohibited Transactions

Utilizing a Self-Directed IRA (SDIRA) for real estate requires absolute adherence to IRS “arm’s length” regulations. This Professional Disclaimer notes that any failure to follow SDIRA compliance protocols can result in the immediate disqualification of your retirement account, leading to severe taxes and penalties. We provide a clinical roadmap for equity protection, but you must consult with your own tax professional or ERISA attorney before executing an SDIRA transaction.

5. Vendor Vetting and Third-Party Auditing

Our Vendor Vetting Protocol provides 50-state resources for auditing contractors and managers. This Professional Disclaimer clarifies that Entrepreneurs Report and Curtis Waters do not warrant the performance or professional standing of the individuals or entities listed in these external databases. The 32-state legal resource directory is provided as a tool for your personal due diligence; final vetting responsibility lies solely with the asset manager.

6. AI Marketing and Dominate Your Brand LLC

Through Dominate Your Brand LLC, we utilize AI business automation to optimize lead generation. This Professional Disclaimer acknowledges that while AI models are high-performance tools for identifying off-market deals, they are prone to technical variations. Curtis Waters does not guarantee the accuracy of AI-generated content or the specific performance of marketing algorithms in 2026. Automation should be audited by a human strategist to ensure brand integrity and clinical accuracy.

7. Errors and Omissions (E&O) Disclosure

The technical content on this site is subject to “Errors and Omissions”. Real estate legislation, interest rates, and lending guidelines change rapidly in 2026. This Professional Disclaimer notes that while we strive for clinical accuracy, Entrepreneurs Report is not liable for inadvertent technical errors or outdated information within our resource hubs. Users are encouraged to cross-reference all technical data with the NCREC and the South Carolina Real Estate Commission.

“A Professional Disclaimer is the ultimate tool for transparency. Our goal is to provide the clinical frameworks you need to grow, while ensuring you remain the definitive authority over your own financial legacy.” — Curtis Waters, MBA
