New Consumer Resource on Written Buyer Agreements

Louisiana REALTORS® • August 27, 2024

NAR is excited to share that it is rolling out new resources for members and their clients to help them navigate the practice changes. They will focus on various aspects of working with an agent who is a REALTOR®.


The first in this series is a
one-page, consumer-friendly guide on written buyer agreements: what they are, why consumers will be asked to sign them, and how they help create clarity and transparency at the start of a relationship between a buyer and their real estate professional. The resource, which is designed to be given directly to consumers during these discussions, is part of NAR's ongoing campaign to help members promote clarity and transparency with the consumers they serve.


It is available for download on facts.realtor, at the link below and within the LR Broker Toolkit under the "For Your Client" section.
