Description
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation.

In this episode you will learn:
- Florida law presumes a transaction brokerage relationship unless a different relationship is established in writing.
- A single agent is the only relationship that provides full fiduciary duties, remembered by the mnemonic COLD (Confidentiality, Obedience, Loyalty, Disclosure).
- Transaction brokers provide limited confidentiality and cannot reveal the parties' willingness to negotiate on price or their motivations.
- Written disclosures have strict timing rules: a no-brokerage notice is due before showing property, while a single agent notice is due before the showing or listing agreement, whichever is first.
- These specific brokerage relationship disclosure rules apply only to residential sales, a common point of confusion tested on the exam.
