Seller's Agent

A seller's agent acts solely on behalf of the seller. A seller can authorize a sellers agent to work with sub-agents, buyer's agents and / or transaction coordinators. A sub-agent of the seller is one who has agreed to work with the listing agent, and who, like the listing agent, acts solely on behalf of the seller. Seller's agents and their sub-agents will disclose to the seller known information about the buyer which may be used to the benefit of the seller.

The duties that a seller's agent and subagent owes to the seller include:

• promoting the best interests of the seller
• fully disclosing to the seller all facts that might affect or influence the seller's decision to accept an offer to purchase
• keeping confidential the seller's motivations for selling
• presenting all offers to the seller
• disclosing to seller all information known to the seller's agent about the identity of all buyers and the willingness of those buyers to complete the sale or to offer a higher price.
