When practicing as a facilitator, the facilitator

A facilitator is a neutral party who assists both the buyer and the seller in a real estate transaction but does not have the agency responsibilities of an agent. Facilitators do not represent either party (seller or buyer) and do not owe fiduciary duties to either. The role of a facilitator is limited to helping both parties complete the transaction by providing guidance on the process, preparing documents, and ensuring that all procedural steps are followed.

Unlike agents, facilitators are not required to disclose confidential information or negotiate on behalf of either party. Their primary function is to assist with the logistics of the transaction without representing one party’s interests over the other.
