Session: Understanding Buyer Agency Agreements and How to Implement Them featuring Cynthia DeLuca

Our industry is always evolving and with national news of some MLSs changing the way brokers do business, it is more important than ever that all Realtors have all the tools and knowledge possible to do business successfully. After taking this class students will be able to: Explain the importance of working exclusively with a buyer; determine which agreement is appropriate when; understand how written agreements protect both the customer and the brokerage; recognize what an exclusive representation means when working with a buyer; comprehend what types of agency relationships are authorized with an exclusive buyer broker agreement; clarify to a buyer the importance of the agreement and how to present it; and appreciate the Arbitration Hearing process and how clear written agreements between the buyer and seller can assist in confusion of procuring cause.

Session is only open to registrants who registered for FULL convention; seating is limited to 225.
