Your brokerage, provincial real estate regulator, or law society may impose specific requirements on electronic signatures and forms. Confirm what is permitted for your transactions — this page is general information, not legal advice.

Frequently asked questions

Can real estate documents be signed electronically in Canada?

In many cases, yes — Canadian electronic commerce law recognizes electronic signatures for a wide range of agreements. However, real estate is regulated provincially, and your provincial real estate regulator, law society, or brokerage may set specific requirements or forms. Confirm what your brokerage and provincial regulator allow before relying on e-signatures for a transaction. This page is general information, not legal advice.

How does multi-party signing work for a deal?

You upload the document, place fields for each party (buyer, seller, agents), and choose sequential or parallel routing. Each party gets a tokenized link, signs in any browser, and the next party is notified automatically. You can track who has signed in real time.

Is the signed agreement protected against changes?

Yes. When all parties finish, the document is sealed with a service-level PKCS#7 digital signature and an audit certificate page is appended. Any change after sealing is detectable in standard PDF readers, and every event is recorded in a hash-chained audit log.

Where are the documents stored?

Signed documents and signer data are stored in Canada. Retention is configurable: the file is purged after the retention window while the verifiable audit record is preserved. See the data residency page.

Can my brokerage embed signing into its own system?

Yes. Beyond the web console, GetSigned offers a REST API so a brokerage platform or CRM can create envelopes and receive completion webhooks. See the e-signature API page.

Does GetSigned replace my lawyer or notary?

No. GetSigned handles signing and the integrity of the signed record; it does not provide legal advice or notarization. For documents that require legal review, witnessing, or notarization in your province, work with the appropriate professional.
