Today's realtors work for buyers as well as sellers. Once you retain us as your realtor, we owe you a fiduciary duty under the law. By law we agents are
responsible for protecting your best interests.

Here is the form of agency relationship as defined by the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA):
A SELLER/VENDOR'S AGENT:
A real estate company acting as vendor's agent must do what is best for the vendor.
A written contract between the vendor and the realtor establishes agency. It explains the services the realtor agrees to provide, spells out who will pay commissions and specifies any obligations a vendor may have. Typically a vendor will work exclusively with that realtor for a specific period, as cited in their contract.

The first formal step in marketing your
property is to enter into a Listing Agreement - a contract that commits us as
your Real Estate Professional to actively market your home for a specified
period of time. It also commits you to a pre-established marketing fee that is
to be paid upon the successful closing of the sale.
We will ask you as vendor to sign a vendor's agency agreement if you wish to have us act as your agent. By law we must have it when presenting any offer to purchase a home. When you sign a "Listing Agreement" with us, this is our promise that we will use our skills and resources to get the most for your home.
