By real estate law, the agent has to have a fiduciary relationship with the seller. UNLESS you specifically hire them as a buyers agent.

Example. You see a home with an agent who you did not hire as a buyers agent. The asking price is 300K. You make an offer for 285K, but tell the agent if they don't accept you will move to 295K. That agent is bound by law to tell that to the seller. If they don't, they could lose their license.
