The Real Estate Agent Buyer Agreement is a crucial document in Canadian real estate transactions that formalizes the relationship between a property buyer and their chosen real estate agent or brokerage. This agreement is typically used at the beginning of the property search process, before any specific property is identified. It outlines the agent's commitment to represent the buyer's interests, details the scope of services to be provided, and specifies the terms of compensation. The document must comply with provincial real estate regulations, as real estate is regulated at the provincial level in Canada. It includes essential elements such as the duration of the agreement, geographic limitations, property type specifications, and commission structures. This agreement provides legal protection for both parties and clarity regarding their respective rights and obligations throughout the property search and acquisition process.
