Agency
In Utah, 'implied agency' may be created when:
AOnly a written agreement is signed
BAn agent's conduct and actions lead a party to reasonably believe an agency relationship exists✓ Correct
CThe Division of Real Estate assigns an agent to a client
DTwo agents agree to share a commission
Explanation
Implied agency arises from the conduct and actions of the parties rather than an express agreement. If an agent acts as though representing a party, and that party reasonably believes they are being represented, an implied agency may exist—with the same duties as an express agency.
