Buyer's agency, Seller's agency, transactional brokerage and no brokerage relationship are all possible in Florida. Dual agency is not allowed as that requires an agent's fiduciary duty extend to both buyer and seller.
Chapter 475 Section 278 - 2023 Florida Statutes
Over the years I have utilized licensees in every one of these capacities in multiple states in both residential and commercial purchases and sales.
