Selling a home/cottage or land takes more than an ad in the paper and a “for sale” sign on the lot it takes experience and training.

Who’s working for you?
It is important that you understand who the realtor is working for, For example both
The seller and the buyer may have their own agent which means they each have a REALTOR who is working for them.

Or, some buyers choose to contact the seller’s agent directly. Under this arrangement the REALTOR is working for the seller, and must so what is best for the seller, but may provide many valuable services to the buyer.

A REALTOR working with a buyer may even be a “sub-agent” of the seller. Under sub agency, both the listing agent and the co-operating agent must so what is best for the seller even though the sub-agent may provide many valuable services to the buyer.

If the seller and the buyer have the same agent, this is dual agency and the REALTOR is working for both the seller and the buyer.

CODE OF ETHICS
REALTORS believe it is important that the people they work with understands their agency relationship. That’s why agency disclosure is included in a self imposed Code of Ethics which is administered by the Real Estate Council of Ontario. The code requires REALTORS to disclose in writing the nature of the services they are providing and encourages REALTORS to obtain written acknowledgement of that disclosure. The code also requires REALTORS to enter into a written agency agreement with any seller or buyer they are representing.

SELLER’S AGENT
When a real estate company is a “sellers agent” it must do what is best for the seller of the property.

A written contract, called a listing agreement, establishes seller agency. It also explains services the company will provide, establishes a fee arrangement for the REALTOR’s service and specifies what abligations a seller may have.

A seller’s agent must tell the seller anything known about the buyer. For instance, if the seller’s agent knows a buyer is willing to offer more for a property, that information must be shared with the seller.

Confidences a seller shares with the seller’s agent must be kept confidential from potential buyers and others.

Although confidential information about the seller cannot be discussed, a buyer working with a seller’s agent can expect fair and honest service from the seller’s agent and disclosure of pertinent information about the property.

DUAL AGENT
Occasionally a real estate company will be the agent for both the buyer and the seller. The buyer and seller must consent to this arrangement in their listing and buyer agency agreements. Under this “dual agency”
arrangement, the company must do what is best for both the buyer and the seller:
Since the company’s loyalty is divided between the buyer and the seller who have conflicting interests, it is absolutely essential that a dual agency relationship be established in an agency agreement. This agreement specically describes the rights and duties of everyone involved and any limitations to those rights and duties.
