Recently the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) uploaded a Coronavirus Statement & Consent form to WEBForms® for REALTORS® to use with clients. In signing the form, clients state that they currently don’t have any COVID-19 symptoms and haven’t been in contact with anyone with symptoms.

The person signing the form is also giving the brokerage permission to contact them “about any coronavirus-related developments” in relation to a property that person visits.

To find the form, click on the “Forms” icon on the Webforms® dashboard, which will take you to a list of forms. Click on the heading “COVID Forms”. That will take you to a menu where you can access the Coronavirus Statement & Consent form.

While using this form can help protect you and clients against the spread of COVID-19 and meet WorkSafeBC requirements, keep in mind that one form may not fit all scenarios. If you’re unsure, talk to your managing broker and, above all, be guided by recommendations from public health authorities.
