In December 2023, the Ontario real estate scene underwent a transformation with the implementation of Phase Two of the Trust in Real Estate Services Act (TRESA), replacing the old REBBA. This change significantly impacts how real estate transactions are handled, affecting nearly 100,000 realtors across Ontario. At The Durham Life, we are committed to guiding you through these updates, ensuring a seamless transition and maintaining the high quality of our services. Many people we talk to are still unaware of these changes, and we’re here to help you understand and navigate them.

HOW DOES THIS AFFECT YOU

Disclosures There will be increased emphasis on disclosures, particularly when dealing with Multiple Representation.

Agency The option for a customer relationship is no longer available. If individuals prefer not to receive any services from an agent, they now have the choice to represent themselves.

These legislative changes present an opportunity for us to reaffirm our dedication to your success in the real estate market.
