Tampa Bay Real Estate Buyers Brokers , Single Agents and
Transaction Brokers
Florida Law requires that Real Estate Licensees provide this Notice to
Home Sellers & Buyers- You should not assume that any real estate broker
or salesperson represents you unless you agree to engage a real estate licensee in an
authorized brokerage relationship, either as a single agent or as a transaction broker.
You are advised not to disclose any information you want to be held in confidence until
you make a decision on representation.
Buyers Beware- Don't reveal personal or financial information to the
listing agent or the seller. Aways conceal your excitement when you fall in love with a
home. This, and the maximum price you can pay, is for you alone to know. Show some
interest in each home you're shown which has desirable features. Then, when the right one
comes along you won't blatantly telegraph your true degree of interest. It's
suggested you use an exclusive Buyers Broker...an agent whose exclusive loyalty and skills
are used on your behalf. As unfair as it seems, in most typical home purchases, the only
one NOT represented is YOU... the buyer.
Buyers Broker- (Single Agent) A prospective buyer contracts
with a buyers broker under a single agency agreement. A Buyer's Broker is legally
bound to act in best interest of the client and their interests only. The Buyer's Broker's
fee is paid by the seller and not you. A Buyer's Broker is in a much stronger negotiating
position, which typically results in a lower purchase price. You and your agent work
together exclusively.
Single Agent Notice- Florida Law requires that Real Estate Licensees
operating as Single Agents disclose to Buyers and Sellers their duties. As a Single Agent,
( ) and it's associates owe to you the following duties:
1- Dealing honestly and fairly
2- Loyalty
3- Confidentiality
4- Obedience
5- Full Disclosure
6- Accounting of all funds
7- Skill, care and diligence in the transaction
8- Presenting all offers and counteroffers in a timely manner, unless a party has
previously directed the licensee otherwise in writing
9- Disclosing all known facts that materially affect the value of residential real
property and are not readily observable
Transaction Broker Notice- Florida Law requires that Real Estate
Licensees operating as Transaction Brokers disclose to Buyers and Sellers their role and
duties in providing a limited form of representation. As a transaction Broker, ( )
and it's associates, provides to you a limited form of representation that includes the
following duties:
1- Dealing honestly and fairly
2- Accounting for all funds
3- Using skill, care and diligence in the transaction
4- Disclosing all known facts that materially affect the value of residential real
property and are not readily observable to the buyer
5- Presenting all offers and counteroffers in a timely manner, unless a party has
previously directed the licensee otherwise in writing
6- Limited confidentiality, unless waived in writing by a party. This limited
confidentiality will prevent disclosure that the seller will accept a price less than the
asking or listed price, that the buyer will pay a price greater than the price submitted
in a written offer, of the motivation of any party for selling or buying the property,
that a seller or buyer will agree to financing terms other than those offered, or of any
other information requested by a party to remain confidential
7- Any additional duties that are entered into by this or by separate written agreement.
Limited representation means that a buyer or seller is not responsible for the acts of the
licensee. Additionally, parties are giving up their rights to the undivided loyalty of the
licensee. This aspect of limited representation allows a licensee to facilitate a real
estate transaction by assisting both the buyer and the seller, but a licensee will not
work to represent one party to the detriment of the other party when acting as a
transaction broker to both parties.
The Buyer's Broker's
fee is paid by the seller and not You. The Buyers Broker Agent is compensated by sharing the commission that the
seller has agreed to pay their listing agent. The buyer can receive representation at no
additional cost to themselves. In the case of New Homes, the Sales Agents in the Model
Homes are highly trained representatives for the Builder and not You. You
can work with those Agents and still have someone on your side! Your Buyers Broker Agent
will look out for your best interests. Even though the Broker is compensated by a seller
or agent working with a seller, such compensation does not compromise Brokers duties to
the Buyer.
As your Buyers Broker: 1- Buyer should be Pre-Qualified or agrees to make a mortgage application
with a lender. Broker will assist in searching for the best loan programs and will relay
the information to the Buyer. We can then focus our search to properties that are within
your actual financial parameters.
2- We will devote the time, effort and expense of helping you find the
right property. Buyers sole obligation is to make any Purchase Offer on any real estate
through Charles Rutenberg Realty, Inc. however, the Buyer is not obligated to buy any real
estate.
