An employing broker who designates one associate broker to work as a sellers agent and one to work as a buyers agent has what sort of agency relationship?

Dual agency occurs when a single agent represents both the buyer and the seller in a transaction. Since the employing broker has designated different agents for the buyer and the seller, dual agency does not apply here. Each associate broker operates independently, which negates the possibility of a dual agency relationship.

Limited agency refers to a situation where an agent provides limited representation to both parties, often requiring the consent of both clients. However, because the employing broker has assigned separate agents to work exclusively for the buyer and seller, there is no limited agency relationship present. Each agent fully represents only their designated client.

Single agency denotes a scenario where an agent exclusively represents one party in a transaction. While one associate broker represents the seller, the other represents the buyer, meaning that a single agency relationship does not encompass both parties. There is no exclusive representation of the buyer by the employing broker, which makes this option incorrect.
