SUMMARY:Broker Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Topic- Time to Review- 2026 editionAs the changes from 2025 settle in and become the norm and we move further into 2026\, one thing has become abundantly clear: the rules governing how real estate professionals interact with buyers have permanently changed. Firms that fail to adapt will risk more than lost commissions: they risk regulatory scrutiny\, litigation exposure and reputational damage.The requirement that buyer agents execute written representation agreements before touring property is no longer simply a "best practice"\, it is now a cornerstone of brokerage compliance and consumer transparency. Yet across New York State we continue to see confusion\, inconsistent office policies and missed educational opportunities simply because many agents are having difficulty differentiating between a customer and a client.In addition\, some agents view the new landscape as an opportunity to double dip by attempting to collect commissions on both the seller and buyer side a sure fire recipe for disaster.This year\, it is essential for every brokerage firm to refocus on this issue and ensure their agents fully understand both the legal obligations and the practical business implications moving forward.Join us for an educational series among peers only open to broker owners and office managers who belong to SIBOR . A monthly meeting at the SIBOR office to discuss the matters and topics relevant to you. Bring your questions\, expertise and problems for a collaborative\, open forum with expert panelists. Online registration is only open to the Designated Realtor/Participant of an office. For office managers and administrators\, please e-mail events@sibor.com to register. We hope to see you there!\nThis is part of the 2026 Broker Professionalism Series brought to you by the Professionalism Committee of SIBOR.

The requirement that buyer agents execute written representation agreements before touring property is no longer simply a &ldquo\;best practice&rdquo\;\, it is now a cornerstone of brokerage compliance and consumer transparency. Yet across New York State we continue to see confusion\, inconsistent office policies and missed educational opportunities simply because many agents are having difficulty differentiating between a customer and a client.

This year\, it is essential for every brokerage firm to refocus on this issue and ensure their agents fully understand both the legal obligations and the practical business implications moving forward.
