In Florida Dual Agency is illegal, but not 'clients'. Clients are those buyers or sellers with a single agency relationship and customers are generally those with transaction broker relationships.

In Florida a client would be one that I have a single agent broker agreement signed with and I act as their fiduciary. Typically, in Florida we act as Transaction brokers, and while many claim to have clients, they are actually working with customers.

Really, Client is illegal in Florida? Where would I verify that? I'm surprised to hear that.

Is it the difference between A Buyer Agency/Listing Agreement and no contractual agreement?

In Texas it is somewhat ture; however we can have a client who does not sign an agreement and we can establish agency verbally or through our actions (not the preferred way).

Wanda - I am sure the difference between client and customer is the same here in Arizona. I am also pretty sure that not too many people know or understand the difference.

Hi Wanda -- as far as I am aware in California those two terms are interchangeable and purely for the sake of semantics.

Yes I do. And I make sure that folks who contact us about working with them understand the difference too.

OMG how do some agents get a license???
FLORIDA DOES HAVE CLIENT STATUS. Representation (sellers agent, buyers agent) equals single agency which is HAVING A CLIENT.
Transaction brokers have no fiduciary duties and therefore have only customers, not clients.
Duties for being a client or customer is the SAME in EVERY STATE. It does not vary.
Client=representation=fiduciary duties=sellers agent or buyers agent
Customer=No representation=no fiduciary duties
A RELATIONSHIPS HAS TO BE ESTABLISHED IN ORDER TO HAVE A CLIENT.
