C1 Appointments to Act
Event Location:

Event Description
1 CPD Point, Face-to-Face (SLPL16)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Due to the announced repeal of the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2021 (WA), this event replaces C4 Working with the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act.
Securing a valid appointment to act is a first priority for any commercial real estate agent intending to act in a transaction, both from a regulatory compliance and business perspective.
Designed for all commercial real estate agents (whether in sales, leasing or management), this one-hour workshop will:
- review the legal requirements of a valid appointment to act under the Real Estate and Business Agents Act 1978 (WA) and the Real Estate and Business Agents (General) Regulations 1979 (WA);
- examine the different forms of appointments to act, including the standard forms produced by REIWA;
- discuss potential issues in the context of clients with SMSF and bare / custodian trust arrangements;
- review case law relating to appointments to act; and
- examine the consequences for real estate agencies and agents of failing to hold a valid appointment to act (including with respect to fee recovery and under the Real Estate and Business Agents and Sales Representatives Code of Conduct 2016 (WA)).
