AGENCY RELATIONSHIPS: In Alabama, it is law that your real estate agent provided you with information and your rights as a consumer regarding agency relationships. Unfortunately, many agents fail to present RECAD (Real Estate Consumer Agency Disclosure) information to persons shopping for homes. We recommend that you prepare yourself by learning what an agency relationship entails.
