3. Description of Services.

BuildBlock currently provides a full-service, internet-based platform for Managers to efficiently manage their rental units, including such features as promotion of an available rental unit, screening potential tenants with secure credit and background checks, creating and maintaining customized lease agreements, managing online ACH payment of Tenant Payments with automatic receipts and interest reminders, managing the move-in/move-out checklist online, maintenance requests, and property management reports (including rents collected and maintenance fees incurred) (the "Services"). More information on the Services is provided below. Users may use some or all of the features of the Service. BUILDBLOCK RESERVES THE RIGHT TO ADD, SUBTRACT, OR CHANGE THESE SERVICES.

3.1 Finding and Screening Tenants.

Upon registration, the Manager will be required to provide registration information, which will include information such as the Manager 's full name, primary phone number, alternative phone number, email address, emergency contact information, credit card payment information, and other relevant information related to such Manager (the "Manager Registration Information"). During the time that the Manager uses the Services, Manager shall keep all Manager Registration Information up-to-date and accurate.

Once registered, Manager may add a rental unit, and if desired, create a listing that includes information about the unit, such as the unit type, building name, street name and cross street, address, package delivery location, amenities, rent amount, and security deposit (the "Unit Information"). Manager may choose to use the Service to broadcast the Unit Information to third-party marketing sources (such as Padlister via RSS).

Once the Tenant has viewed the rental unit and is ready to submit an application to the Manager, Manager creates a new application through the Service. As part of this process, the Tenant will be invited to fill out a rental application on the selected rental unit. This application will include information such as the Tenant 's full name, primary phone number, alternative phone number, email address, emergency contact information, past addresses, prior landlord contact information, whether the Tenant has pets, vehicle information, employment history, current income information, and other relevant information related to such potential rental unit (the "Tenant Application Information"). Once tenant has completed the rental application on the selected rental unit, he will authorize the Manager to view the application on the Website, including all Tenant Application Information.

Upon completion of the application, Tenant will be required to provide personal information ("Background Check Information") and authorize the Landlord and BuildBlock to access his Nationwide Criminal History Check and Credit Report/Score (the "Background Check"). Tenant will leave the Website and be redirected to a third-party service provider 's site to authorize and complete the Background Check. BuildBlock has no control over the contents of such third-party site or resources, and accepts no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. If Tenant decides to access any of the third party websites linked to this Website, Tenant does so entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites. Once the third-party service provider has completed the Background Check, it will be available on the Website, via a secure API, for Managers to view until the Manager rejects such Tenant 's application or until the Manager and Tenant enter into a lease with respect to the rental property, whichever date is earlier.

Once the Manager has received the Tenant Application Information and Background Check, Manager shall either accept or deny such Tenant application on the Website.

Manager represents and warrants that he has read and accepted the BuildBlock  Fair Housing Policy and is in compliance with all federal and state laws in his decision to accept or deny a Tenant for a particular rental property and is any postings and Unit Information. Manager further represents and warrants that all information provided on the Service, including, without limitation, the Unit Information, is true and accurate and does not violate any federal, state, local or international law or regulation. Tenant represents and warrants that all information provided on the Services, including, without limitation the Tenant Application Information and the Background Check information, is true and accurate and does not violate any federal, state, local or international law or regulation. Users acknowledge that BuildBlock does not verify the identity or accuracy of any User information provided on the Services nor does BuildBlock warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any of the information provided on the Services. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other visitor to the Website, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

3.2 Create Customized Lease Agreements.

Once a Manager has accepted an application for a rental unit, Manager may use the Services to generate a lease based on Manager 's already-existing lease template or design a template from a set of options provided on the Website. Once the lease template is acceptable, Manager submits the lease template on the Website and BuildBlock will populate the lease with Tenant-specific information provided by Tenant in the Tenant Application Information. Manager will then have the option to review the lease and send it to the Tenant. The lease will be sent to Tenant for review. Tenant may sign an acceptable lease on the Website or submit comments or changes to Manager for review. Once Tenant has signed the lease on the Website, Manager will have the option to countersign on the Website, and the fully-executed lease will be available for both Users to view through the Services. Each User represents and warrants that he has the full right, power and authority to enter into any lease signed using the Services and that the lease constitutes a binding agreement of such User. Any disputes between Manager and Tenant with respect to the lease must be resolved outside of the Services and Website. BuildBlock does not have control of or assume any liability for actions of Users on the Service, including, but not limited to the content of any lease agreements.

3.3 Move-In and Move-Out Checklist.

Within seventy two (72) hours of a Tenant moving into a rental unit, Tenant must submit the move-in checklist on the Website. Tenant may upload photographs and/or videos in connection with the move-in checklist to show prior damage or make a maintenance request to Manager.

At the end of a lease, within thirty (30) days, Manager must complete a move-out checklist for the unit on the Website. The move-out checklist will document any damage to the unit attributable to the Tenant that will be netted against Tenant 's security deposit, if a security deposit was collected by Manager. Tenant will be able to view an itemized list of damages on the Website, along with an estimate of the cost to fix the damage.

Any disputes between Manager and Tenant with respect to damages to a unit or security deposits must be resolved outside of the Services and Website. BuildBlock does not have control of or assume any liability for actions of Users on the Service, including, but not limited to the use of the unit or the assessment of damages to a unit. BuildBlock does not guarantee security deposits. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any of the information provided on the move-in or move-out checklist. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other visitor to the Website, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

3.4 Online ACH Tenant Payments.

If the Manager participates in the online ACH payment feature of the Services, Tenant payments for rent, late fees, security deposits, or move-in fees ("Tenant Payment(s)") may be paid via ACH.

If Manager would like to accept online payments via ACH, Manager must accept and agree to the ACH agreement on the Service. Manager will specify bank account information and the rental unit and related Tenant that will make payments into such account. A Manager that operates more than one unit on the Service has the option to specify several bank accounts and separate unit deposits into different accounts.

Tenant may make online payments via ACH on a recurring basis (for rent) or on a one-time basis. To enable this feature of the Services, Tenant will be required to enter bank information and authorize BuildBlock to debit (either once or on a recurring basis) the Tenant Payment. BuildBlock will save Tenant bank information on secure servers unless Tenant requests that BuildBlock delete such information by contacting info@buildblock.io.

All Tenant Payments made via the ACH payment feature of the Services will be transferred to one of several accounts held by BuildBlock until the ACH has been cleared by the Federal Reserve and Tenant 's bank. Once the ACH transfer has been cleared by the Federal Reserve and Tenant 's bank, BuildBlock shall initiate an ACH transfer to Manager in the amount of the Tenant Payment, less any processing or convenience fees. If Manager accepts security deposit and rent payments via the ACH payment feature of the Services, Manager must have separate accounts for these funds and designate them as "rent account "or "security deposit account "on the Services. A typical process may take up to four (4) days for Manager to receive the Tenant Payment. For a Tenant Payment to be considered paid on time, Tenant must schedule or initiate the ACH rent transfer no later than 2:00 pm CST on the date the Tenant Payment is due, and such payment must not be rejected non-sufficient funds ("NSF").

If a Tenant Payment is rejected for NSF, BuildBlock will be notified within three (3) business days, and BuildBlock will notify the Manager and Tenant of the rejection and the related NSF fee within one (1) business day of our notification that the payment was rejected. It will be the Tenant 's responsibility to initiate a new ACH transaction or to make the Tenant Payment in some other manner and pay BuildBlock the NSF fee. It will be the Manager 's responsibility to assess a late Tenant Payment fee, if any, to Tenant. Tenant will be required to pay the NSF fee, and any late fees assessed by the Manager, on or before the initiation of any new ACH transaction through the Website. If Tenant does not pay the NSF fee via ACH within sixty (60) days of the notification of such NSF fee, Tenant hereby authorizes BuildBlock to charge Tenant 's credit card on file for the amount of the NSF fee. If Tenant does not have a current credit card on file and fails to pay the NSF fee within the sixty (60) day period referred to above, Manager hereby authorizes BuildBlock to charge Manager 's credit card on file for the full amount of the NSF fee.

During the time that the Tenant makes Tenant Payments to the Manager through the Services, both Parties agree to ensure that all bank account, ACH information, and credit card information up-to-date and accurate.

Either User may cancel the ACH payment feature at any time by contacting info@buildblock.io, as long as a current ACH transaction is not in process. If a current ACH transaction is in process, such transaction will be finalized before BuildBlock disables this feature of the Service.

BUILDBLOCK IS NOT A COLLECTION COMPANY AND IN NO WAY GUARANTEES PAYMENT BY TENANT NOR DOES IT INHERIT THE RISK ASSUMED BY ANY PARTY IN RELATION TO ANY TRANSACTION PERFORMED THROUGH THE SERVICE.

3.5 Maintenance Requests.

Tenant may submit maintenance requests on the Website through an online form that describes the nature of the issue and upload a photo or video, if necessary. Manager will be able to view and manage these requests on the Website. Manager may choose to send the request to a preferred contractor or select a contractor from a list of available contractors based on the type of maintenance issue and the location of the unit. Manager will be able to associate a cost to the project and upload an image of a receipt for the repair on the Website. BuildBlock does not warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any of the information provided on the maintenance request or the accuracy or fitness of any information provided from third-parties about potential contractors. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other visitor to the Website, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

3.6 Property Management Reports.

BuildBlock provides reports for Manager based on data from the Website. The Report is a balance sheet of properties that Manager owns or manages, and includes the following: unit address, typical monthly rent, and whether the unit is vacant or occupied. BuildBlock also uses data from any rent collected via ACH and any maintenance requests submitted to prepare a Cash Flow report for Manager, capturing the actual revenue and expenses for a unit, building, or portfolio of properties. Manager may upload performance data to the system (such as rent collection and maintenance expenses) to complete any missing information.

Reports are made available solely for general information purposes. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of this information. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other visitor to the Website, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

3.7 Content Management Services for Existing Leases.

For Managers with rental units under existing leases, Manager may upload the existing lease to the Website and invite pre-existing tenants to join the Website to participate in some or all of the Services. Even if Manager 's pre-existing tenants opt out of the some or all of the Services, Manager may upload the existing lease to the Website and manually input performance data on those units in order to (1) receive Rent Roll and Cash Flow reports, (2) receive reminders on upcoming events and deadlines, and (3) receive tips on landlord/tenant ordinance compliance.

5.5 Unauthorized Transactions.

BuildBlock reserves the right to seek reimbursement from Manager, and Manager will reimburse BuildBlock, if BuildBlock discovers a fraudulent transaction, erroneous or duplicate transaction, or if BuildBlock receives a chargeback or reversal from any Tenant credit card company or bank for any reason. You agree to and acknowledge our right to investigate any and all transactions for fraud. Further, you agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests made by BuildBlock in an effort to investigate fraud. Manager agrees that BuildBlock has the right to obtain such reimbursement by charging Manager 's account, deducting amounts from future transfers, charging Manager 's credit card or any bank account associated with your account, or obtaining reimbursement from Manager by any other lawful means, including using a third party collection agency. Failure to pay for reimbursements of a charge back or a reversal of payment is cause for termination of Manager 's account.
