More details about forms

Forms development

The WB forms are prepared and approved for use by the REEB. Prior to approval, drafts are reviewed by the WRA forms committee, chaired by REALTOR® Tom Sykora, and comments are forwarded on to the DSPS real estate contractual forms advisory committee. Once the DSPS state forms are finalized, WRA-drafted forms are examined to see if changes are warranted.

WB forms products

The WRA offers essential forms products as a benefit of membership, including Transactions (zipForm Edition), the WRA Forms Library and Line by Line forms training. These essential tools help REALTORS® streamline transactions, stay compliant with Wisconsin forms, and build confidence in understanding and drafting contracts.
