    NOTICE: As a prospective purchaser of real estate, you should be aware that the listing broker and, in the absence of a specific "buyer agency agreement" to the contrary, the cooperating (selling) broker are legally considered to be the "agents" of the seller. As such our fiduciary duties of loyalty, care, confidentiality and disclosure are owed to the seller. Nonetheless, we are still obligated to treat you honestly and fairly. Should you feel it necessary or desirable, you can obtain representation from a lawyer or another real estate broker or both.
