October is Blind Low Vision Month
DID YOU KNOW? 1 in 5 NZers may experience blindness or low vision in their lifetime but only 10% of published information is available in formats accessible to people who are blind, deaf-blind or have low vision. 👩🦯👨🦯
That's why REA (Real Estate Authority) have published key consumer guides in e-braillie, audio and large print formats to support blind, deaf-blind and low vision communities to ensure that all real estate consumers across NZ are fully supported and have confidence in their real estate buying and selling journey.
The new guides include:
The Residential Sale and Purchase Agreement
The Residential Agency Agreement
The Real Estate Buying Journey
REA’s Complaints and Disciplinary Process
