I should have noted that I make my forms available for free, here: http://addedequity.com/free-wa-real-estate-forms/. It's one of my many methods for building web traffic and spreading the message about my innovative real estate firm.  

Another attorney has already reached out to me for a set of my forms as a professional courtesy. I am happy to do it for anyone who asks. Just give me a couple of days to strip out the logo, insert some disclaimer language specifically for attorneys, and I'll be able to share a set of editable Word docs, for use as you see fit. In exchange, I ask only that you give me frank feedback on the forms and how they might be improved, recognizing that they are for use by real estate brokers and therefore by definition must be "balanced" between the interests of the buyer and the seller.

  Well, as a licensed broker as well as an attorney, I would note that a residential real estate transaction, almost by definition, needs some trust and cooperation. If you MUST see changes to the forms, depending on your client, then you make trust and cooperation difficult. Query whether that is in the client's best interests - where the client can surely give informed consent to whatever additional "risk" results. 

  Jim, I have the NWMLS order form and can send that along. I can also send you my own forms (drafted for and owned by my real estate firm Added Equity Real Estate). Just shoot me an email directly.

    Buyer beware with the NWMLS forms.  In my view, they have unfavorable or insufficient paragraphs throughout the agreement depending on who you represent.

    The forms you are looking for are produced by NWMLS.  You should contact NWMLS directly.  They sell to and/or share the forms with lawyers upon inquiry.  I am not sure what their terms are but I understand they are quite reasonable.

    Thanks - Annie

    I tried that and they have everything else but not the Purchase & Sale Agreement form and addenda.  I'll try a few realtors I work with.  But it has got to be on the web somewhere.  🤔

    Would someone be able to point me to the website where I can find and print a standard form Purchase& Sale Agreement, and addenda, for residential real estate?  Or send me a few of the forms.

    Usually clients come in with them all filled out with problems.  Now a client wants me to prepare it for him. 

    Thank you.
