PROfESSIONALS acting or dierent

parties in a nmber o related transactions

run the risk of encountering a conict

when they have to consider the interests

o both. Estates agents are no dierent

when they nd both the buyer and the

seller o separate properties are on theirbooks.

Today conue ae conideaby oe

ophiticated than they ued to be. Thei

awaene of thei ight and deie to be

fuy infoed houd be een a a poitive

chaacteitic of the eidentia popety

The need to atify conue ha ed to

any initiative aco a nube of ecto

which ae geaed towad uch geatetanpaency, ede and a genea cutue

of putting the customer rst.

In ight of thi ove towad a conue

fiendy envionent, a oe open appoach

ay be needed when agent act fo buye

and ee in eated tanaction, a uch

infoation ay need to be conveyed to both

patie to avoid the pobe aociated with

conicts of interest emerging.

Whee an etate agent act fo m Jone in

connection with the ae of 10 lie Gove,

which i being puchaed by m sith, it i

not unuua fo the etate agent to ao be

acting fo m sith in connection with the

ae of 20 lie Gove (m sith eated

tanaction). In othe wod, the etate agent

i acting in the ae of both popetie and

therefore has a potential conict of duties to

m sith and m Jone.Aguaby the etate agent ha an inteet in

the ae of Nube 10 poceeding (ove and

above hi fee fo acting in the ae ofNube 20 becaue without it the ae of

Nube 20 wi not poceed. It i in the etate

agent inteet to e both popetie at any

justiable price.

The etate agent who i acting fo both m

Jone and m sith coud be accued of

encouaging m Jone to accept a owe pice

fo m sith (who ha Nube 20 to e),

athe than a highe offe fo m mogan

who ha no popety to e o who i eingthrough another estate agency ofce.

A similar conict may arise where the estate

agent i acting fo the ae of thei popety,

but the estate agents ofce is also providing

otgage o othe evice to the buye. The

agent then has a secondary nancial interest

in the tanaction poceeding.

Fo iia eaon, the agent coud be
