The Exclusive Buyer Brokerage Agreement is a fundamental document in Canadian real estate transactions that establishes a committed professional relationship between a buyer and a real estate brokerage. This agreement is typically used when a serious buyer wants dedicated professional representation in their property search and purchase process. The document ensures that the brokerage firm has the exclusive right to represent the buyer in property transactions within a specified period and geographic area. It details the brokerage's obligations to the buyer, including property search services, market analysis, negotiation support, and professional guidance throughout the purchase process. The agreement is structured to comply with Canadian federal and provincial real estate regulations, including necessary consumer protections and disclosure requirements. It specifies commission structures, the duration of the exclusive relationship, and the specific services the buyer can expect from the brokerage.
