Feb. 15, 2014 - PRLog -- Lansing, MI & London, Ontario –– The Michigan Association of REALTORS® (MAR), the state’s largest professional real estate organization, announced today a licensing agreement with Instanet Solutions for its online real estate forms.

The agreement grants Instanet the ability to display MAR real estate forms so MAR members can easily collaborate with buyers & sellers electronically, including the ability to send documents for signatures using the ESIGN-compliant software known as Authentisign™.

According to Carol Griffith, MAR's 2014 President, “We are pleased to expand our forms licensing so our members will be able to access them through additional channels. We want to encourage our members to always use the most up-to-date version of MAR’s forms, and this new license with Instanet guarantees that will be the case.” Ms. Griffith added, “Local associations, MLSs, brokerages and individual members will be able to access not only MAR’s online forms, but will have the opportunity to consider cloud storage, faxing, and eSignings, giving them options in the marketplace to make listing and selling property easier.”
