Purchase Agreement Terms & Conditions:
I am a real estate broker licensed by the Arkansas Real Estate Commission.

Information about ordering forms from the Arkansas REALTORS® Association is being furnished by AREC in the interest of all real estate companies’ having access to forms designed by an attorney. I hereby agree to all the following provisions regarding usage of the Arkansas REALTORS® Association contracts and forms:

These provisions were included at the request of the majority of the purchasers and users of the forms. No warranty, suggestion or implication can be inferred by the inclusion of provisions regarding the agency or commission provisions, same being expressly disclaimed by the Arkansas REALTORS® Association, its members, officers, directors, agents, attorneys, and independent contractors. Instead, each Purchaser or user is admonished to seek independent legal counsel prior to use of any form contained in the forms with regard to the legality of multiple agency representation and commissions. In particular, Purchaser is cautioned to visit with legal counsel and refer to regulations promulgated by an agency(ies) of the United States Government (including without limitation statutes and regulations forming part of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”)), concerning all compensation policies of Purchaser.
