The Seller Agency Agreement serves as the foundational document in Canadian real estate transactions where a property owner engages a professional real estate agent or brokerage to sell their property. This essential contract type is designed to comply with provincial real estate regulations and establishes the scope of the agent's authority, responsibilities, and compensation structure. It is typically used when a property owner wants professional representation in selling their property, whether residential or commercial. The agreement includes crucial details such as the listing price, marketing strategy, commission terms, and the duration of the agency relationship. It protects both parties by clearly defining their roles, rights, and obligations while ensuring compliance with provincial real estate laws and professional standards. This document is particularly important as it forms the legal basis for the agent's authority to act on behalf of the seller and outlines the terms under which they can market and negotiate the sale of the property.
