Giving TAR Contracts to Others?
QUESTION: My dad is a builder, and he is purchasing a lot owned by another builder. No agents are involved. Can I print off TAR forms for him to use as a standard land contract?
ANSWER: NO. The TAR forms — including the TAR Offer to Purchase and other forms — are copyrighted and may ONLY be used by members of TAR. Individuals who are selling or buying property without the assistance of a member of TAR are NOT permitted to use any part of the TAR form. If they would like to work with you either as an agent or a facilitator, you may then use the TAR forms in the transaction.
Although some REALTORS have given these forms to consumers for their own use (without a REALTOR), both they and the consumers in question are liable for infractions of (federal) copyright statutes!
