Website Accessibility Statement

Last updated: May 22, 2026

Jacob Baer is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including individuals with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive challenges. We design, build, and optimize our digital assets to ensure our real estate marketing, home evaluation platforms, and neighborhood data are accessible to the public.

1. Core Commitment to Universal Inclusion

Our team treats accessibility as an active design constraint, not an afterthought. Every page, interactive form, and content component is reviewed for inclusive design before publication, and remediation is prioritized whenever a barrier is reported.

2. Technical Evaluation Standard

To confirm sustainable accessibility, this domain is systematically updated to match the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 and 2.2 Level AA standards. Our Next.js, Bun runtime, and Tailwind CSS framework uses clear structural coding methods, including:

  • Semantic Heading Infrastructure. Tightly structured heading hierarchies (<h1>, <h2>, <h3>) that allow screen reader software to parse and map pages without visual layout dependency.
  • Form Field Programmatic Labels. All home valuation inputs, mortgage calculation sliders, and identity boxes are wrapped with explicit, machine-readable labels to facilitate error handling and clear audio transcription.
  • Text Alternatives for Visual Assets. Comprehensive alt text parameters are applied to all property photographs, listing graphics, floor plans, and brand landmarks, including images surfaced inside dynamic 3D virtual tour frames and image carousels, ensuring screen reader users understand the full scope of a property's layout.
  • Keyboard-Only Navigation Operability. The entire user journey, including interactive listing maps, listing filter checkboxes, carousel pagination controls, and pop-up intake boxes, can be fully executed using standard keyboard tab pathing alone, without requiring a computer mouse. Focus order through image carousels and modal dialogs is explicitly managed so users never lose their place.
  • Color Contrast Optimization. Text displays and functional buttons adhere to a high-contrast standard exceeding a 4.5:1 ratio against their background frames, preventing legibility degradation for visually impaired visitors.
  • Dynamic Content ARIA Live Controls. Interactive property carousels, live map movements, and dynamic filter updates use ARIA live regions and labels to notify users of new content, map grid changes, and result counts immediately, without requiring a page reload.

3. Compatibility

Our site is designed to be compatible with current versions of major browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) combined with assistive technologies including the latest versions of VoiceOver, NVDA, JAWS, and TalkBack.

4. Remediation & Alternative Document Access

Digital accessibility is an ongoing refinement process. If you encounter any structural display barriers, code issues, or unreadable mapping modules while using this site, contact us immediately. We will modify the code to resolve the issue and deliver the required listing documentation or valuation records via an alternate channel within 48 hours.
