You’re trusting a Real Estate Agent with your most valuable possession, your home. Licessed Real Estate agents take this responsibility very seriously. Here’s what we promise you.
Your Real Estate Agent is highly trained.
REALTOR® training is so rigorous that candidates often fail the pre-registration courses. Those who do pass must master a long, diverse list of subjects ranging from housing construction to family law.
Your Real Estate is continuously trained.
We keep pace with the times. All Licensed Real Estate Agents must take continuing education courses to make sure their knowledge on subjects like legal issues and technology are up to date.
Your RE Agent does everything by the book.
A licensed Agent must be registered under provincial laws that govern exactly how real estate can and cannot be traded. These regulations are your legal guarantee of professional behavior.
For your peace of mind, provincial regulators sponsor consumer protection programs that may require, for instance, that Real Estate agents maintain Errors and Omissions Insurance. Often deposits consumers make in real estate transactions are also insured under these programs..
Your Real Estate Agent has access to the real estate board’s Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
The MLS system is the single most powerful tool for buying and selling a home. It is a complex information-sharing and cooperative marketing network to help consumers buy and sell homes.
