What is the AAR's position on modifying their sample contract forms?

The AAR, or Arizona Association of Realtors, maintains a strict policy regarding the alteration of its sample contract forms. The organization's position is rooted in the desire to ensure that all transactions utilize standardized forms that are legally sound and minimize the risk of disputes. When forms remain unaltered, it guarantees that they reflect current law and best practices, which protects both the users and their clients.

Allowing modifications could lead to inconsistencies or legal complications that arise from changes made by individuals who might not fully understand the implications of those changes. Therefore, to uphold the integrity and reliability of the forms, the AAR prohibits any alteration. This approach not only protects users but also promotes uniformity in the real estate practices across the state.
