NMAR announced on April 2 that they had several new and revised forms. This information was shared by NMAR and SCRMLS in our newsletters. The links and information was also posted on the Paragon homepage for over a month.
As we get closer to our deadline to requiring written buyer broker agreements and removing commissions from the MLS... You need to review these forms prior to the SCRMLS August 1 policy and practice effective date so that you will be familiar with the new changes!
These forms can be found in your Instanet or SkySlope forms portal. NMAR is currently working on updating additional forms to comply with the requirements of the NAR Settlement.
Reach out to NMAR members services with any questions 505-467-6307.
