The Pacific Southwest Association of REALTORS® (PSAR) does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information presented. The instructors are not providing legal advice, and attendees should consult their brokers, attorneys, or the California Association of REALTORS® Legal Hotline for legal guidance.

As real estate professionals, we know that consumer trust is the foundation of every successful transaction. Ensuring that clients understand exactly how their real estate professionals are compensated is central to protecting their interests and reinforcing that trust.

What is Changing?

C.A.R. has finalized revisions to standard forms to provide a standardized method for disclosing both the receipt and payment of referral fees. Because several forms were already undergoing revisions, this was the ideal time to incorporate these important modifications.

Agents should prepare for changes in the following documents:

• BRBC and RLA Forms: These forms will now include specific references to referral fees.
• New Disclosure Mechanics: The updates are designed to make it easier for REALTORS® to make appropriate disclosures, ensuring consumers are fully aware of all sources of compensation.
  
  

Why You Need to Attend the Training

When clients understand whether and how referral fees are involved, they are empowered to make informed decisions and ask the right questions. As an agent, your ability to explain these forms clearly is essential to your professionalism.

To ensure you are fully informed and prepared for when these forms go live, C.A.R. is offering a suite of educational resources and town halls. These sessions will focus on the practical application of the forms so you can continue to serve your clients with the highest level of transparency.

Upcoming Town Hall Schedule

It is strongly encourage you register for one of the following sessions to review these changes and receive additional guidance:

• Thursday, Dec. 4: 3:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. | Register here
• Thursday, Dec. 11: 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. | Register here
