Listen "Caveat REALTOR®: Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act"
Episode Synopsis
Virginia REALTORS®’s legal team discusses the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, or RESPA. Cate and Laura review the main provisions of RESPA, and discuss how it is applicable to brokers and real estate licensees. They answer some legal hotline questions, such as “I am going to host an open house for other agents. A local title company wants to reimburse me for the cost of food but does not want to do any marketing at the event. Would this be okay because I am not promoting the title company?” Finally, Cate and Laura review some ways to limit your risk to ensure that you do not violate any provisions of RESPA.
