You missed my point - all REALTORS or sales agents in TV act as "transaction agents" with no fiduciary responsibility unless established in writing. If they act as a buyer's agent and want to show you a property their firm has listed you have to change over to "transaction agent" because dual agency is not legal in Florida.
I agree they are supposed to be forthright and honest, but that is a far cry from a fiduciary arrangement.
