In Jamaican real estate transactions, a seller broker represents the seller, working under a listing agreement that creates a fiduciary duty. This means the broker must act in the seller’s best interest. The seller usually pays the broker’s commission, not the buyer. It’s important for buyers to understand that agents showing properties might actually be representing the seller, not the buyer. Knowing who represents whom helps ensure a clear and efficient transaction process.
