What role does a sub-agent play in a real estate transaction?

  1. Works directly for the buyer

  2. Works directly for the seller

  3. Works for another agent representing the seller

  4. Operates independently without representing buyers or sellers

The correct answer is: Works for another agent representing the seller

A sub-agent plays a crucial role in a real estate transaction by working as an intermediary between the seller's agent and the buyer. This means that they work for the seller's agent, who is representing the seller's interests in the transaction. A sub-agent does not work directly for the buyer (option A) or the seller (option B) and does not operate independently without representing either party (option D).
