Ownership, Advertising and Referral Disclosure

Effective: September 26, 2026 · Last reviewed: September 26, 2026

Nicholas and Miriam Peters publish this guide and own or control the businesses it features. That is a material connection, and we disclose it here and beside each mention.

Commonly owned businesses

Peters & Associates (real estate), Peters Custom Homes and Peters Signature Homes (home building), Emerald & Oak (interior design), Peters Audio Video (home technology) and the other sites listed on the Portfolio page are owned or controlled by the publisher. Mentions are labeled “Publisher-affiliated service” or “Publisher-owned.”

How we benefit

The publisher may earn fees when you hire these businesses, and inquiries sent through this site may be routed to them. Using this site never adds a fee to your price. You are free to hire anyone; compare providers and verify licenses independently.

Editorial independence

Area information about schools, dining, parks and neighborhoods is written for usefulness and is not paid for by any third party. Publisher-owned businesses do receive prominent placement because they are the publisher’s own.

Advertising, sponsors and affiliates

There is currently no third-party advertising, sponsored content or affiliate link on the site. If that changes, each placement will be labeled beside the content and links will use rel="sponsored".

Link attributes

Links to publisher-owned businesses carry rel="nofollow noopener" or equivalent. Other organizations are named in plain text without links. We follow the FTC’s Endorsement Guides principle of clear, conspicuous disclosure of material connections.
