Real property transactions: agents: obligations.
Summary
Existing law requires listing and selling agents, as defined, to provide the seller and buyer in a residential real property transaction, including a leasehold interest, with a disclosure form, as prescribed, containing general information on real estate agency relationships. Existing law also requires the listing or selling agent to disclose to the buyer and seller whether he or she is acting as the buyer's agent exclusively, the seller's agent exclusively, or as a dual agent representing both the buyer and the seller. This bill would extend these disclosure requirements to include transactions involving commercial real property, as defined, including a leasehold interest.
