The Buyer shall refer to the Broker all inquiries or offers they may make about a listing that Broker submits to Buyer. Broker is free to represent multiple prospective parties, such as if Broker procures Lender/Investor financing on behalf of Buyer or, if broker facilitates a flip sale profit for the Buyer and represents new buyer as well, or broker may even act as a direct lender, investor or financier itself, Seller and/or Buyer and may receive remuneration from respective parties.

Notwithstanding this Conflict and Dual Representation, Buyer consents to Broker's sale or exchange of the Property.
