Reply to comment by wynnduffyisking in Real Estate Agents Caught on Camera Facilitating Mortgage Fraud for a Fee by Puzzleheaded-Bug7189

> The key thing to consider with a conflict of interest is disclosure. If disclosed beforehand, and the person is given the approval to continue, then the conflict of interest is not a problem – and consequently legal. However, if the conflict of interest activity was disapproved and the individual continued despite this, or never it disclosed in the first place, it could be considered illegal.

If the judge interprets the distribution of that contract, unsigned, with those terms printed in legible terms as ‘disclosure’…🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

The other thing to consider is what this gentleman did: https://medium.datadriveninvestor.com/russian-man-tricks-bank-into-signing-ridiculous-credit-card-agreement-e4329f7ef4cf

That’s interesting. We don’t follow the same logic. In our rules the realtor is there to only represent the interests of the client and the agent representing the other party means that the agent has interests counter to the client which is a no no disclosed or not.
