When must the no brokerage relationship notice be provided to a potential buyer?

The no brokerage relationship notice must be provided to a potential buyer before showing the property. This requirement is in place to ensure that buyers are fully informed about the nature of the relationship they will have with the real estate professional. By disclosing this information prior to any property showings, the buyer understands that the agent does not represent their interests in the transaction, allowing them to make informed decisions about their representation and the level of guidance they will receive.

Delivering this notice before showings allows for transparency and helps prevent any misunderstandings about the agent's role. This is particularly crucial in establishing trust and clarity from the outset, making it clear that the agent is either acting in a neutral capacity or potentially representing the seller’s interests. This foundational understanding supports a smoother transaction process and reduces the risk of conflicts later on.
