Dual Agency Prohibition (Kansas)
K.S.A. 58-30,103(a) bars a Kansas licensee from acting as a dual agent, or in a dual capacity as agent and undisclosed principal, in any transaction. When one firm has both sides of a deal, Kansas uses transaction brokerage or designated agency instead. A supervising broker who permits dual agency also commits a supervision violation under K.A.R. 86-3-31.
- Exam tip
- Any answer saying Kansas allows dual agency with informed consent is wrong; Kansas solves in-house sales with transaction brokers or designated agents.
- Example
- A firm lists a home and another agent in the same firm has a buyer client; the broker designates separate agents for each party rather than acting as a dual agent.
