The concept of who represents whom
can be very confusing. We'll try to make it as clear as
possible here. There are three types of real estate agency
available to a seller in Florida:
1. Non-Representative: The real estate agency law
in Florida makes a presumption of non-representation.
In other words, unless you engage a real estate
licensee to represent you in a real estate transaction,
you are not represented and there is no agency relationship
between you and that licensee.
2.
Transaction Broker: The real estate agency
law in 1997 created the role of transaction broker.
Transaction brokers provide limited representation
to a buyer, seller, or both in a single real estate
transaction. Transaction brokers cannot represent
either buyer or seller in a fiduciary capacity.
3. Single Agent or
Buyer's Agent: This is the purest form
of representation for sellers. Single agents have
the full fiduciary duties of dealing honestly
and fairly, loyalty, confidentiality, obedience,
full disclosure, and accounting for all funds.
Single agency is the only form of agency that
creates a client-level relationship between the
seller (or buyer) and real estate agent.
Today more than ever, it is important
to understand a Real Estate Agent's allegiance. When agents
represent the Seller, their job is to portray a property
in the most favorable light and obtain the highest price
for the seller. When you work with the Morris team on
