MY HOME BUYER'S PERSONAL
BILL OF RIGHTS
Read the following information very carefully. It's about
you. It's about a commitment, my commitment to you. I believe that there is
nothing more important than your well being. With that in mind I have put in
writing, My commitments to you. You see, I have found that lot's of agents can
make promises. But do they always keep them? Therefore I make NO promises, ONLY
COMMITMENTS. I hold myself accountable. Accountable to you. To your future. To
your family. To your investment in a new home. It is my sincere intention to
serve your real estate needs for life, not just one time. I intend to deliver
the kind of service that makes you feel secure in your decision to use my
services both now and for life! Thank you.

3. I will enter into a written exclusive agency agreement, which includes the fiduciary duties of loyalty, obedience, confidentiality, disclosure, accounting, and due care, and which makes the buyer my client, rather than a customer.
The agency agreement will also denote that my commission comes from the proceeds of the transaction. And in the event of an actual dual agency situation, my commission will come from the seller or seller's agent. If the buyer prospect is uncomfortable with the duration of the agreement, they may cancel it at any time
