2024 Forms | Instruction Manuals


Each year, a great amount of time and effort is expended to improve the library of “standard form” sale contracts and other transactional and business-related documents used by Missouri REALTORS®.  The Missouri REALTORS® Instruction Manual is a multi-part series of instructional guides and was created to serve as an educational resource for all REALTORS®, and to help them assist their clients.

 
The use of standard forms serves to reduce conflicting operating practices and procedures.  It also facilitates efficient interaction between brokerage companies throughout Missouri, and reduction of potential liability.  At the same time, our standard forms are designed to provide REALTORS® with the ability to reasonably customize and tailor details of each transaction, to address the particular facts and circumstances presented consistent with the needs and desires of the parties they represent. 
 
Updates to this Manual are posted here as they are made.  All hypotheticals set forth are for educational purposes only.  These documents must not be provided to non-members.  Doing so puts you in violation of copyright laws and diminishes the value of membership in the Missouri REALTORS®.
 
Special thanks go out to ALL Standard Forms Committee members for their hard work and efforts in reviewing and improving all of your Association’s standard forms.
 
For additional information, see our "Review 2024 Forms Revisions" dedicated webpage, which summarizes all new and revised forms (and includes “clean” & “redlined” versions showing all changes made), and our Keeping It Legal videos page.  As always, your comments and questions are welcomed, and to that end you can submit comments and revisions by clicking here.
