Accessibility Statement

Shehmeer is committed to providing a website that is accessible to people with disabilities. We believe everyone should be able to search for homes, view listing information, and contact us regardless of ability or the technology they use.

This statement applies to shem.list.house, operated on behalf of Shehmeer.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). In Ontario, we also consider the requirements of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) Integrated Accessibility Standards for information and communications.

Conformance is an ongoing effort. New features are reviewed for accessibility before release.

• Semantic HTML structure and heading hierarchy on primary pages;
• Sufficient colour contrast using tenant theme tokens tested against WCAG contrast ratios where possible;
• Keyboard navigability for main navigation, forms, and interactive controls;
• Visible focus indicators on interactive elements;
• Text alternatives for meaningful images and decorative images marked appropriately;
• Form labels, error messages, and required-field indicators on contact and registration flows;
• Responsive layouts that reflow on mobile devices without loss of functionality;
• Respect for prefers-reduced-motion where animations are used.

Despite our efforts, some areas of the Site may not yet fully meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA, including:

• Interactive map components (third-party map tiles and markers may have limited screen-reader support);
• Some listing photographs provided by MLS® feeds may lack alternative text if not supplied by the listing brokerage;
• Legacy PDF or embedded documents linked from blog posts;
• Complex data visualizations on market trend charts.

We are working to address these gaps in priority order.

Listing data, map tiles, and embedded widgets may be provided by third parties. We encourage vendors that support accessible experiences but cannot guarantee the accessibility of all third-party content.

If you experience difficulty accessing any part of this Site, or wish to request information in an accessible format, please contact us:

• Contact form (preferred);
• Email: shemeer@valery.ca

Please describe the page URL, the barrier you encountered, and your preferred method of communication. We will respond within five (5) business days and work with you to provide the information or service in a suitable format.
