What is an Agent?

In many types of business dealings, including the business of real estate transactions, an AGENT represents someone else, called the PRINCIPAL (YOU), in dealing with other people. The agent becomes a "substitute" for the principal: he or she acts, speaks and listens for the principle.

This relationship between a principal and an agent is called an AGENCY relationship.

The British Columbia Real Estate Association defines the parameters of an AGENCY relationship as the following:

The Agency Relationship

REALTORS® work within a legal relationship called agency. The agency relationship exists between you, the principal, and your agent, the company under which the individual salesperson, who is representing you, is licensed. The essence of the agency relationship is that the agent has the authority to represent the principal in dealings with others.

Agents and their salespeople are legally obligated to protect and promote the interests of their principals as they would their own.

Specifically, the agent has the following duties:

• Undivided loyalty. The agent must protect the principals negotiating position at all times, and disclose all unknown facts which may affect of influence the principals decision.
• To obey all lawful instructions of the principal.
• An obligation to keep the confidences of the principal.
• The exercise of reasonable care and skill in performing all assigned duties.
• The duty to account for all money and property placed in an agents hand while acting for the principal.

You can expect competent service from The Properties In Victoria Professionals^TM, knowing that the company is bound by ethics and the law to be honest and thorough in representing a property listed for sale. Both buyer and seller can be represented by their own agents in a single transaction.
