Is a Referring Broker Entitled to Compensation When the New Broker Becomes a Dual Agent?
In today’s video, Washington REALTORS® Legal Hotline Lawyer Annie Fitzsimmons addresses a common referral question involving Form 11 and dual agency: when a broker refers a seller to a listing agent, and that agent later represents both the seller and an unrepresented buyer, how is the referral fee calculated? Does it apply to the agent’s total compensation, or only the portion earned from representing the seller?

Tune in as Annie walks through the fact pattern and clarifies how referral agreements under Form 11 apply in dual agency situations!
