A broker can act as an intermediary without written consent when specific agreements are in place or when the purchase contract explicitly authorizes it.
In real estate transactions, a broker can serve as an intermediary between a buyer and a seller without obtaining written consent in the following situations:
- If representation agreements are signed with both the buyer and the seller, allowing the broker to act as an intermediary.
- If a listing contract is signed with the seller.
- If a buyer representation agreement is signed with the buyer.
- If the purchase contract explicitly grants permission to the broker.
These scenarios establish the necessary agreements and permissions for a broker to act as an intermediary without requiring written consent.
