The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) recently did a study that revealed that approximately 70% of home buyers incorrectly believed they were being represented by the same real estate agent that was also the listing agent.
This study prompted laws requiring agents to disclose exactly who they represented. These laws were soon passed throughout the country - including in California. The laws clarify that responsibility, and accountability, are the two legal requirements of agency representation.
The logic is simple. What if you had to go to court? Would you use the same attorney that the opposing side was using?
By law, real estate brokers who act as Seller's Agent must negotiate in the best interest of their clients (the Sellers), not withholding information from the Seller, they must present the Seller's property only in a favorable manner, and get the most money as is possible for the Seller.
On the other hand, Exclusive Buyer's Agents negotiate in the best interests of the Buyer, help get the best price for the Buyer, do not disclose confidential information about the Buyer, and reveal all facts affecting the value of all properties to the Buyer.
