  • Become aware of expanded resources for Forms, including the 22 helpful guides called “Forms Explained” – tools to enhance your knowledge of forms.

  • Get tips on adding integrity to member trading activities with the use of Standard Forms.

  • Refresh your memory on other vital recent forms designed to assist you with detailed obligations such as Access Entry Acknowledgement. (Have you had a Home Inspection condition access or Appraisal access in the last year or two?)

  • Learn what happens when a buyer waives an ‘unfulfilled’ condition (Have you documented their awareness of all issues?)

The March 15 event is the first in the monthly series. The webinars will be led by Cassandra Agnew Walker, senior manager, standard forms at OREA. The upcoming sessions will cover a variety of other topics related to real estate forms. The webinars are free and available to all OREA members.
