- Understand your rights as a consumer of real estate services and demand trust, competence and loyalty from the service provider.
- Avoid disclosing your financial capabilities and motivational reasons for buying to anyone whose interests are adverse to yours.
- Hold service providers accountable for the promises they make to you.
