Working With A Realtor

OREA Form 810

This form is required under Section 10 of the Code of Ethics to fulfill the requirements of Information before agreements. The first section of this form highlights that a contract for real estate services is with the Royal LePage Baird Real Estate. The Baird Team is employed by Royal LePage Baird Real Estate as representatives to provide the services of the brokerage. Royal LePage Baird Real Estate falls under the responsibility of the Broker of Record. Also important to note that the consumer is entitled to know the different types of service relationships that are available.

The first type of relationship is a client relationship. It is important to note that this is the highest level of relationship between The Baird Team and a consumer. There are duties which the law states are mandatory to a client called fiduciary duties. The “client” arrangement is created through a representation agreement. Clients can be Sellers or Buyers. For Sellers the representation agreement comes in the form of a Listing Agreement. While in a client relationship Royal LePage Baird Real Estate and The Baird Team must protect the interests of the client and not disclose confidential information. In a customer relationship, The Baird Team is still required to treat the customer with honesty, fairness and integrity but the services will be on a restricted level. It is possible that our brokerage and team will be representing more than one client on a transaction or where there is more than one offer on a property. Where Royal LePage Baird Real Estate represents more than one client on a transaction, this is called multiple representation.
