Agency

In South Dakota, 'subagency' allows a cooperating broker to act as:

AA buyer's representative
BAn agent for the listing broker (and the seller), not the buyer✓ Correct
CA dual agent for both parties
DA transaction facilitator with no agency duties

Explanation

In subagency, the cooperating broker becomes the listing broker's subagent, extending the agency to the seller. This means the buyer's broker may technically represent the seller, not the buyer, absent a buyer representation agreement.
