What is an Agreement Review?

An Agreement Review examines a recorded question using the agreement, the relevant evidence and the participants' responses.

Why it matters

Disagreements happen between honest people. A calm, recorded process is better than an argument over messages.

How it works

  1. 1A permitted participant raises a question about a specific responsibility.
  2. 2The affected amount is preserved where required.
  3. 3Evidence is requested and responses are allowed.
  4. 4The exact agreement version is examined and an outcome is recorded.

A practical example

A homeowner questions whether plumbing was completed to the agreed standard. The review examines the accepted version, the inspection record and the fundi's response before an outcome is recorded.

Common misunderstanding

A review opened is read as wrongdoing proven.

What to check before acting

  • Read the exact wording of the responsibility being questioned.
  • Gather the records you already hold.
