Agency
In Louisiana, when a listing broker cooperates with a selling broker through the MLS, the selling broker's relationship to the seller is typically:
AA subagent of the listing broker representing the seller
BA buyer's agent representing only the buyer✓ Correct
CA dual agent representing both parties equally
DA neutral facilitator with no agency duties
Explanation
In modern Louisiana practice, cooperating (selling) brokers in MLS transactions typically act as buyer's agents representing the buyer, not as subagents of the listing broker. This has largely replaced the subagency model that was previously common.
