Customer Status Disclosure Acknowledgment (To be used when there is no agency relationship)
Members of the Canadian Real Estate Association are required to abide by a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Business Practice, which serves to protect the buying and selling public alike. One of the ethical obligations embodied in the Code requires that REALTORS disclose who they are representing (or not representing) in a real estate transaction: A REALTOR shall fully disclose in writing to, and is advised to seek written acknowledgment of disclosure from, all parties to a transaction regarding the role and the nature of service the REALTOR will be providing to the client versus the customer or other party to the transaction.
Agency/Client Relationship A REALTOR representing a client in a real estate transaction works within a legal relationship called agency. As an agent, the REALTOR owes the client a number of duties including loyalty, obedience of lawful instructions of the client, confidentiality, reasonable care and skill in performing the tasks required, accounting of all money received, full disclosure of all relevant facts, and nondelegation of responsibilities. The client, on the other hand, owes the agent a duty of reasonable compensation for the services rendered.
Customer A party may choose to represent him/herself in a real estate transaction. A party representing him/herself (either as a buyer or a seller) is referred to as a third party to the client, and a customer to the REALTOR representing the client. Unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing, the customer is not expected to pay the REALTOR any compensation. On the other hand, the customer does not have the protection of the duties which a client in an agency relationship receives from his/her agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a REALTOR assisting a customer has to be honest and ensure that all information provided to the customer is factually correct.
Acknowledgment Having read and understood this form, I/we acknowledge that: ______________________________________________________________________ (name of broker, associate broker or agent) being registered with ______________________________________________________________________ (name of brokerage) disclosed that he/she is representing ______________________________________________________________ (name of client) in the purchase/sale of _________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ (property address) and is not acting on my behalf. I further acknowledge that my status in the above transaction is that of a customer. Dated this _________________ day of ___________________________________________________________, _____________.

Informed Dual Agency Consent (To be completed by the Buyer and attached to the Purchase Contract #_________________) As required by the Real Estate Council of Alberta's Code of Conduct, a real estate brokerage (including its broker, associate brokers, and agents) must only act for one party in a transaction, unless there is full disclosure to all parties, and the dual agency is agreed to in writing. The client must fully understand the implications of dual agency and give an informed consent in writing prior to entering into a real estate transaction.
The Agency Relationship You, the Buyer, have entered into an agency relationship under common law with the Brokerage, including its broker, all its associate brokers and agents (collectively referred to as the Buyer's Agent). A brokerage, its broker, associate brokers and agents representing a seller are referred to as the Seller's Agent. The Buyer's Agent is obligated to protect and promote your interests. Specifically, the Buyer's Agent owes you the fiduciary duties of loyalty, obedience, confidentiality, reasonable care and skill, full disclosure, and full accounting. You, as the Buyer, and potential sellers may be represented by different brokerages (the Buyer's Agent and the Seller's Agent). Each of these Agents owes its client the full fiduciary duties listed above. Other brokerages representing sellers will not have a fiduciary relationship with you. The seller may be acting on its own behalf. In this situation, the Buyer understands that the Brokerage will represent only the Buyer as Buyer’s Agent and will not owe fiduciary duties to the seller.
Dual Agency Dual Agency occurs when one brokerage (the Dual Agent) trading in real estate from one or more locations, represents both you and the seller, or more than one buyer, with respect to the potential purchase of the Property. In such circumstances, the described fiduciary duties are limited as follows: The Dual Agent: (a) will not, without prior written authority, disclose: (i) to the seller that you will pay a price higher than the offered price (or countered price), (ii)
to you that the seller will accept a price lower than the listed price,
(iii) to the seller the reason that you are buying, (iv) to you the reason that the seller is selling, and (v)
to you or other buyers the terms and conditions of competing offers;
(b) except as set out in (a), will owe no duty of confidentiality and will disclose to you and the seller all facts known that materially affect or may materially affect the marketability or value of the Property. The Buyer authorizes the Buyer's Agent (______________________________________________________________________) to act as a Dual Agent in accordance with the above disclosure.

Footnotes - Census of Agriculture (1) In both 1996 and 2001, a census farm was defined as an agricultural operation producing at least one of the following products intended for sale: crops (field crops, tree fruits or nuts, berries or grapes, vegetables, seed); livestock (cattle, hogs, sheep, horses, exotic animals); poultry (hens, chickens, turkeys, exotic birds); animal products (milk, cream, eggs, wool, furs, meats); or other agricultural products (greenhouse or nursery products, Christmas trees, mushrooms, sod, honey and maple syrup). Farm operations producing only Christmas trees were included for the first time in the 1996 census. (2) A farm is classified according to the predominant commodity produced. This is done by estimating the potential gross farm receipts from the inventories of crops and livestock reported on the census questionnaire. The commodity or group of commodities which account for 51 percent or more of the total gross farm receipts determines the farm type. Farm type classification only includes farms with gross farm receipts of $2,500 or more. (3) In 1996, the name and definition of tame or seeded pasture was changed from the previous census. In 1991, it was called "Improved Land for Pasture or Grazing." Consequently, some respondents may have reported differently in 1996 than in 1991, thereby affecting the comparability of those years. (4)The data for land management practices are reported for the year preceding the census year. Operators can apply insecticides and fungicides to the same land. Therefore, the sum of the responses to the two questions in 1996 and 2001 are not comparable to the response to the single 1991 question which asked for the total area on which insecticides or fungicides were used. As in previous censuses, the area of land treated with herbicides, insecticides and fungicides is under-reported in 2001. The data, however, is still comparable to other years. (5) Since 1991, the data reported are for total oats, since the questionnaire made no distinction between the oats for grain and the oats for fodder components of total oats. (6) In 1981, the data reported pertain to barley for grain only. (7) Since 1991, no distinction between oats for grain and oats for fodder has been made. In 1986, 1996, and 2001, the "Other Fodder Crops" are included in the data for "Total Tame Hay". (8) The earlier census date in 1996 (May 14th) and in 2001 (May 15th) affect the comparability with previous censuses due to the lower percentage of calvings that would have taken place at this time compared to the first week of June, when previous censuses were taken. (9) Since individual or family holdings were being over-reported in previous censuses, the order and wording of the questions on operating expenses were changed in 1996. While previous censuses asked if the operation was an "individual or family holding", the 1996 Census replaced this question with one asking if the operation was a "sole proprietorship". (10) Since 1991, there are two separate questions on the value of land and buildings - one on rented properties and one on owned properties. Consequently, the total reported value of land and buildings in following censuses increased compared with earlier censuses, where some respondents had failed to include rented land. (11) In 1991, agricultural operators reported the value of farm machinery and equipment located on their operations on Census Day, regardless of ownership. Since the 1996 census, operators have been asked to report the present market value of all farm machinary and equipment that they owned or leased on Census Day. This change in reporting limits comparability of these data. (12) This refers to gross farm receipts of the operation in the preceding calender year or for the last complete accounting (fiscal) year. (13) This refers to the gross farm operating expenses of the operation in the preceding calender year or for the last complete accounting (fiscal) year. (14) In 2001, the name and definition of "Rent or Leasing Expenses" has changed to "Rental and Leasing of Land and Buildings". This change limits the comparability of the data between 2001 and previous censuses. (15) In 2001, the name and definition of "Fuel, Oil and Lubricants for Machinery" has changed to "All Fuel Expenses". This change limits the comparability of the data between 2001 and previous censuses. (16) In 2001, "Custom Work and Contract Work" and "Rental and Leasing of Farm Machinery, Equipment, and Vehicles" were classified as separate entities whereas in 1996, they were grouped together. This change limits the comparability of the data between 2001 and previous censuses.
Alberta's Township System The following information is excerpted from Doug Barnett's Early Surveys and Settlements in Central Alberta. The DLS System first established controlling lines on which to base the township surveys. It was decided to layout the System on an astronomic basis, that is "square with the world", with north-south and east-west lines following lines of latitude and longitude on the earth's surface. Starting near Winnipeg, Dominion Land Surveyors established six meridians over a period of time. A meridian is an astronomic north-south line on the earth's surface. The Principal Meridian was followed by successive Initial Meridians (the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth), each about four degrees of longitude apart. The Fourth Initial Meridian later became the Alberta - Saskatchewan boundary, and the Western Provinces were extended northward from the 49th parallel (international boundary) to the 60th parallel, a distance of about 760 miles. As meridians follow the spherical curve of the earth, they converge as they are produced northward. For example, the distance between the Fourth and Fifth Meridians along the 49th parallel is about 182 miles (293 kilometres); at the 60th parallel, the distance between the same two Initial meridians is reduced to about 139 miles (224 kilometres) due to convergence of the meridians. The Dominion Lands Survey System is therefore an astronomic system with all north-south lines laid off as true meridians, and all east-west lines established as chords to parallels of latitude. Land between the Initial Meridians was then subdivided into townships. A township is a square tract of land about six miles (9.7 kilometres) on a side, containing thirty-six sections (Figure to left.). Townships are numbered northward, starting from township one at the 49th parallel and increasing to township 126 at the 60th parallel (the north boundary of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba). For example, Lethbridge is about at township eight; Red Deer at about township thirty-eight; Athabasca about township sixty-six; Fort McMurray about township eighty-nine; and Fort Chipewyan about township one hundred and twelve. A column of townships in the north-south direction is called a range. Townships lie in ranges numbered westward from each Initial Meridian, starting with range one adjoining the west side of each such meridian. There are thirty ranges between the Fourth and Fifth meridians along the 49th parallel, but due to convergence of the meridians, this reduces to only about twenty-three ranges along the north boundary of Alberta. Townships are laid off their prescribed width along base lines running between the Initial Meridians. A base line is a line approximating a latitude circle from which townships are projected north and south to the correction lines (to be defined later). See figure above to the right. Base lines are four townships apart. The international boundary is the first base line; the second base line lies between townships four and five; the third base line between townships eight and nine; and so on northerly in regular order. For example, the fourteenth base line (between townships fifty-two and fifty-three) runs along part of Jasper Avenue in Edmonton, and the twenty-fourth base line (between townships ninety-two and ninety-three) runs near the Syncrude plant north of Fort McMurray. Correction lines are east-west lines, midway between base lines, on which the jogs are allowed to provide for convergence of meridians, as shown in figure above to the right. They are also four townships apart. The first correction line is between townships two and three; the second between townships six and seven; the third between townships ten and eleven, and so on northerly in regular order. For example, the twelfth correction line (between townships fortysix and forty-seven) runs through Camrose, and the twenty-third correction line (between
1
townships ninety and ninety-one) runs just north of Fort MacKay. The north boundary of Alberta is about the thirty-second correction line. The jogs along a correction line increase in length as one proceeds westerly from an Initial Meridian. For example, on the 14th correction line running through Namao north of Edmonton, the jog at the northeast comer of range ten is about 36.23 Chains (2390.8 feet = 728.7 metres), whereas the jog at the northeast comer of range twenty-five on the same correction line is about 96.60 Chains (6375.6 feet = 1943.3 metres). On the east side of each Initial Meridian the width of the last range is narrower than a full range due to the convergence between two adjacent Initial Meridians. These fractional ranges are less than six miles in width, the width varying with its position along the Initial Meridian, as shown in the figure above to the right. Sections in a fractional township are numbered the same as though the township was a full one. The Dominion Land Survey System therefore established a practical, accurate solution to the subdivision of vast tracts of land in Western Canada. The framework of meridians and base lines provided the basis for township subdivision in the System. While readily understood and used by early settlers and even by people today, it was highly technical and complicated to layout while keeping errors under control. This required skilled government surveyors (DLS) to accomplish. Based on lines of latitude and longitude determined by astronomic field observations it covered the largest tract of land ever surveyed in North America under a single integrated system. Township surveys subdivided the Crown land into parcels which could be sold for settlement, development and other public purposes. The figure above (on the left) shows the structure of a typical township of the Third System of Survey (the First and Second Systems, which differed mainly in allotment and width of road allowances, were laid out in southern Manitoba and southeastern Saskatchewan up to about 1881; after that, the remainder of the Prairie Provinces was subdivided according to the Third System of Survey). North-south road allowances run every mile apart; east-west road allowances are spaced at two mile intervals. Each township contains three blind lines (east-west section lines where no road allowance is provided - called "blind lines" because they were not measured on the earlier surveys). Distances shown on the early township plans are in Chains, and areas are shown in acres. These British (Imperial) units have been retained for most township plans even after the metric system was adopted in Canada in 1971. Each section is one mile on a side, or 80 Chains square (approximately), containing 640 acres. A Third System township therefore measures approximately 486 Chains east-west and 483 Chains north-south. Road allowances provide public access to each quarter- section. Sections are sometimes broken down into smaller units called legal subdivisions of 40 acres each; each section contains 16 legal subdivisions as shown in figure above to the right. These smaller tracts are used for smaller divisions of land bordering on rivers and lakes, Indian reserves, settlements, and for oil and gas well spacing units. The introduction of the Torrens land registration system in Alberta, effective January 1, 1887, was made possible by the accuracy of the original township and settlement surveys and the careful collection and preservation of survey plans. The Torrens System was devised in Australia by Sir Robert Torrens in 1858, and is one of the most efficient land titles systems in the world. A government land titles office has custody of all original land titles and documents registered against them (such as mortgages, caveats and liens), thus guaranteeing the title and protecting it from fraud and wrongful possession. The Torrens system remains in use to this day for all dealings with land ownership, leasing, and related records at the Edmonton and Calgary land titles offices in Alberta, giving citizens ready access to all important land titles information related to buying, selling, and holding property.

FEBRUARY 2001
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Alberta Real Estate Association (AREA) wishes to thank the Ontario and British Columbia Real Estate Associations and the Calgary Real Estate Board for sharing their materials on standard clauses and phrases.
The Alberta Real Estate Association has created these standard phrases and clauses to assist its members in drafting clauses to meet the needs of Buyers/Tenants and Sellers/Landlords in the preparation and negotiation of the Commercial and Rural Real Estate Purchase Contracts and the Commercial Offer to Lease Contract. At no time are these clauses and phrases to be thought of as required wording, but they are to be used as examples of acceptable phrases and clauses. AREA accepts no liability for the usage of these clauses and phrases. Each transaction is unique and real estate brokers are advised to seek professional advice when they are in doubt regarding the appropriate wording.
