RE/MAX Home Team Company Policy

SELLER/BUYER AGENCY
Disclosed Dual Agency for In-House Sales
(Subagency and Transaction licensee status with Buyers Authorized)

RE/MAX  Home Team, REALTORS adopts this written policy identifying and describing the relationships in which the licensees of  RE/MAX  Home Team, Realtors may engage with sellers, landlords, buyers or tenants. As used in this policy,  the word "Company" means RE/MAX  Home Team, Realtors and its affiliated licensees. 

The Company acts as a seller agent (and/or landlord agent) or as a buyer agent (and/or tenant agent) through written listing agreements or written buyer (and/or tenant) agency agreements or other written agreements for brokerage services with sellers (and/or landlords) or buyers (and/or tenants). 

In acting as a seller agent (and/or landlord agent) or as a buyer agent (and/or tenant agent), the Company acts as an agent of the seller or buyer as those terms are defined by the Statutes of Pennsylvania and per the duties and obligations of a licensee, agent of a seller (and/or landlord) or agent of a buyer (and/or tenant) as specified by the Statutes of Pennsylvania. 

If a represented buyer desires to purchase a company listing (in-house sale), the Company will act as a disclosed dual agent in the transaction with the consent of all parties to the transaction. Written consent of all parties to the transaction is required before the Company will act as a disclosed dual agent. The Company's listing agreements and buyer agency agreements contain permissions for the Company to act as a disclosed dual agent. 

If acting as a disclosed dual agent, the Company will be an agent for both the seller and buyer or the landlord and tenant as defined in the Statutes of Pennsylvania. The Company will have the duties and obligations of a dual agent as specified by the Statutes of Pennsylvania. 

The Company will also work with un-represented buyers (and/or tenants) to sell its listings. If a licensee of the company has acted as a transaction licensee with a buyer and that buyer desires to view and/or purchase a listing of the Company, the licensee must work as a seller's agent and have the appropriate disclosures and consents to
do so, which consents and disclosures are contained in the Company's listing agreement and transaction licensee disclosure form secured through the Pennsylvania Association of Realtors. The Company will also work with buyers (and/or tenants) to sell listings of other brokers as subagents of those brokers or as transaction licensees as those terms are defined by the Statutes of Pennsylvania. Licensees of the Company are authorized to accept offers of cooperation and compensation made to subagents or to transaction licensees either through offers of cooperation and compensation or through unilateral offers of cooperation and compensation made in any multiple listing service in which the Company participates. Licensees of the Company acting as a
subagent or as a transaction licensee must comply with applicable law and regulations regarding conduct as a subagent or transaction licensee and appropriate disclosure of subagency or transaction licensee status to the buyer (and/or tenant).
