Question: A buyer client wants to make an offer on a property listed by another salesperson within the same brokerage. What type of agency relationship arises in this situation?

Answer options: ✅ Multiple representation

  • Designated representation
  • Single agency
  • Sub-agency

Correct answer: Multiple representation

Explanation: Multiple representation (formerly called multiple agency) occurs when one brokerage represents both a buyer and a seller in the same transaction. Designated representation is a distinct form where a brokerage designates different salespersons to represent each client to avoid this, but if not designated, it defaults to multiple representation. This is governed by REBBA 2002 and its regulations.
