Salesperson changing firms.

 A salesperson is about to change firms. Should he contact all of his buyer clients and advise them that he will still represent them at his new firm? a. No, because a listing cannot be terminated by a buyer. b. Yes, because the salesperson is the one the client looks to for representation. c. No, because the listing is with the broker. d. Yes, because a listing is a personal service agreement and stays with the salesperson.

Answer: c. Listings are with the broker, not the salesperson. Unless a contractual agreement exists to the contrary, the salesperson may not interfere with any legal relationship the broker may have with a client.
