Agency
A Colorado buyer's broker who also shows one of their own listings to the buyer has a potential:
AA. No conflict of interest
BB. Dual agency conflict, requiring full written disclosure and consent from both parties✓ Correct
CC. Automatic conversion to transaction brokerage
DD. Requirement to withdraw as buyer's broker
Explanation
When a buyer's broker shows the buyer a property that the same broker (or their firm) has listed, a dual agency situation arises. In Colorado, this requires full written disclosure to both the buyer and seller and their informed written consent to proceed. Without consent, the broker must either withdraw from one representation or change the relationship.
