The Buyer Contract With Real Estate Agent is a crucial document in Canadian real estate transactions that formalizes the professional relationship between a prospective property buyer and their chosen real estate representative. This agreement is typically used at the beginning of the property search process, before any specific property is identified. It details the agent's commitment to represent the buyer's interests exclusively, outlines the geographic area of property search, specifies the duration of representation, and establishes the compensation structure. The document complies with provincial real estate regulations and includes mandatory disclosures required by Canadian law. It serves as a foundation for the working relationship, protecting both parties by clearly defining expectations, responsibilities, and the scope of services to be provided.
