Similarly, a seller`s agency relationship represents the seller in the transaction and the seller is considered a customer. A seller`s agent is also known as a listing agent. The Seller`s representative has the same fiduciary responsibilities to the Seller as the Buyer`s agent to the Buyer. In a seller`s agency, the customer relationship is established by an advertising contract. If a representative acts in the context of his order, a customer is bound by the act of his agent. In addition, a client is responsible for any action or inaction of his representative. The client`s liability to a third party in a transaction made by an agent is based on facts such as: Undisclosed agents are often used to avoid negotiations that would otherwise be biased or corrupt. So if I sell a property to a very wealthy buyer, I can negotiate a much higher price, provided I can do so. This buyer can use an undisclosed agent until the agreement is signed to avoid this kind of bias on my part.

The way to avoid this risk if you are a third party is simply to include in the agreement the fact that no undisclosed customer is involved. Nor can the client revoke the proxy of the agent after it has been partially exercised in order to bind the client (§ 204), although he may do so at any time before this power of attorney has been exercised (§ 203). In addition, in accordance with § 205, if the Agency is valid for a certain period, the Client may not terminate the Agency before the expiry of the deadline, unless there is sufficient reason. If he does so, he is obliged to compensate the enforcement agent for the damage he has suffered as a result. The same rules apply if the agent renounces an agency for a certain period of time. In this regard, note that lack of competence, continued disobedience to legal orders, and rude or offensive behavior were considered sufficient grounds for firing an officer. In addition, one party must give reasonable notice to the other party; Otherwise, the damage resulting from the absence of such notification must be paid (§ 206). According to § 207, the revocation or renunciation of an agency may be made expressly or implicitly by conduct. Termination only takes effect vis-à-vis the agent until it is known to him and against third parties only if he is aware of the termination (§ 208). Usual conflict zones arise from authorized acts of officers who would have exceeded the powers granted; conflict of interest in which the agent fails in his duty to the client; and negligence in the performance of the Agent`s duties.

The usual conflict with the client is not to pay the agent as contractually agreed. An explicit power of attorney means that an agent has been expressly informed that he or she may act on behalf of a principal. Please also note that the rule that charges the Customer to the knowledge of an authorized representative is not necessarily limited to matters of which the Agent is actually aware, but may be extended on the basis of the Customer`s duty. The client is not affected by the knowledge that the entrepreneur should have acquired in the performance of his duties, unless he has an obligation to others to exercise caution in obtaining information. In addition, the Customer will not be affected by the knowledge that a representative should have acquired in the performance of the Agent`s obligations to the Customer or others, unless the Customer or the Captain has an obligation to others to exercise care in obtaining information. Any person who is able to bring legal proceedings in his or her own name and who is able to influence his or her legal relationship by accepting a delegable act or transaction may authorize a representative to act on his or her behalf with the same effect as if that person were acting personally. This «person» can be an organization, corporation or LLC, etc. In fact, companies and organizations must act on agents, whether they are employees, officers or directors.

In addition, an agency can be terminated by law. As a general rule, the death or bankruptcy of the client is an immediate and absolute revocation of the representative`s power of attorney, unless the agency is associated with an interest. The rule is the same, even if the agency is created with more than one principal. If power or authority is created jointly by two or more clients and one of them dies, the agency is usually terminated unless it is associated with an interest. However, an agency can be made irrevocable by law regardless of the death of the client. There are three broad categories of agents: The principal is no longer liable for a particular act after the third person learns that the principal rejects the representative`s power to perform such an act. After the termination of an agency for a specific purpose and the notification of the revocation of the agency, the action of an agent will not normally bind the client. Often, a client is responsible for the illegal acts of an executing agent within the scope and scope of the contractor`s employment. However, it should be emphasised that, unless the contracting entity orders or directs the act, a contracting entity is not liable for the offence committed by a representative while acting against the contracting entity or outside the sphere of employment of the agent.

In addition, clients may be held liable for the illegal acts of their representatives in accordance with the doctrine of vicarious agent liability. A client is always liable for criminal acts committed while the contractor is performing his official duties.
