⚖️ Real Estate Vocabulary: Dual Agency 🏡
Dual Agency occurs when a real estate agent represents both the buyer and the seller in the same transaction. While this setup exists in some states, it is illegal in Kansas. 🚫
🔹 Why is Dual Agency Illegal in Kansas?
Kansas law prioritizes full representation and loyalty to each party. Since a single agent cannot provide undivided loyalty to both the buyer and seller, dual agency is not permitted. Instead, Kansas allows Transaction Brokerage, where an agent assists both parties in a neutral role without fiduciary duties.
💡 Always ask your agent how representation works in your state!
