A pre-recorded streaming VIDEO replay of the April 2023 webcast, Real Estate Broker’s Liability in Residential Real Estate Transactions.
What is the liability of a real estate broker or agent to the buyer in residential real estate transactions? The complexity and lack of clarity surrounding this issue has been the subject of much dissension and debate among Virginia courts and legal scholars alike. The program presenters focus on clarifying Virginia law in this respect, providing practical advice and helpful tips when representing real estate brokers and agents supplying brokerage services in Virginia, as well as a harmonizing analysis of the key case law interpreting Article 3 (Duties of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons) of Chapter 21 of title 54.1 of the Virginia Code.
Viewers obtain a good understanding of how the legal framework under agency, contract, and tort law applies to the residential real estate brokerage industry, including concepts such as Listing Broker, Cooperative Broker, Designated and Dual Agency, the core areas of dispute among courts when interpreting key statutes like § 54.1-2130 et seq., and the analytical insights to be derived from the case law interpreting such statutes. This helps viewers be able to represent their clientele in the real estate brokerage industry much more effectively.
