When working with a Realtor, broker or an agent, it is important to understand who the Realtor, broker or agent works for. To whom is the Realtor, broker or agent legally obligated to. In Real Estate, there are different possible forms of Agency Relationship: Seller's and Buyers Agent. When the professional is a "Seller's Agent", it must do what is best for the Seller of the property. A written contract, called a Listing Agreement, establishes Seller Agency. It also explains services the professional will provide, establishes a fee arrangement for the professionals services and specifies what obligations a Seller may have. A Seller's Agent must tell the seller anything known about the buyer. For instance, if a seller's agent knows a buyer is willing to pay offer more for a property, that information must be shared with the seller. Any confidences a seller shares with a seller's agent must be kept confidential from potential buyers and others. Both the Seller's and Buyer's Agent must expect from each other fair and honest service and disclosure of pertinent information about either property. Occasionally a company will be the Agent for both the Buyer and the Seller. The Buyer and Seller must consent to this arrangement in their listing and Buyer Agency agreements. Under this "Dual Agency" arrangement, the company must do what is best for both the Buyer and the Seller. Since the loyalty is divided between the Buyer and Seller who have conflicting interests, it is absolutely essential that a Dual Agency relationship be established in written agency agreement. This agreement specifically describes the rights and duties of everyone involved and any limitations to those rights and duties. Who is working for you back to top It is important that you understand who the Realtor, broker or agent is working for.

Same goes if the seller contacted the buyer's agent directly, the buyer's agent must do whats best for the buyer, but may give valuable services to the seller.
