Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
No consent
Written consent from both parties after disclosure of limited duties
Only seller consent
Only seller consent is insufficient because dual agency affects both buyer and seller. Washington requires consent from all parties involved in the dual agency relationship, not just one side.
Verbal consent only
Verbal consent alone is insufficient in Washington. The state specifically requires written documentation of consent to ensure clarity and create a record of the client's understanding and agreement.
