I volunteered to do way too many things this year... my work with the New Hampshire Real Estate Commission has been most rewarding! I have been working on two very exciting projects.
The first project was the new Consumer Disclosure form which I reported on previously. The Disclosure form became effective on May 1, 2007. The feedback on the new Disclosure form from both consumers and licensees has been very positive.
The second project was a Consumer Information Brochure.
TODAY the New Hampshire Real Estate Commission posted the Consumer Information Brochure on its website! While the brochure is not mandatory, it is strongly recommended that consumers and licensees download and print this tri-fold brochure from the Real Estate Commission website. [Hit the consumer tab, then the agency/non-agency disclosure form link, then Consumer Brochure]
The brochure is intended to assist consumers in making informed decisions regarding real estate transactions in New Hampshire. It begins by asking ~ When Buying, Selling, Renting or Leasing Real Estate, Are you a Customer or Client? Then the differences are explained so that consumers can choose to work with a licensee as a customer or a client. The brochure also discusses the types of Agency Relationships commonly practiced in New Hampshire.
The new dislcosure form along with the brochure should go a long way to assisting buyers and sellers in New Hampshire.
It was many hours of work, but I know consumers with benefit from the Disclosure and Brochure.
