Stefan Scholl elaborates, "Recent data released by the National Association of Realtors indicates that real estate agents are failing to disclose whom they represent in transactions at an alarming rate, even where state laws (such as Michigan's agency disclosure law) require them to do so in writing at their first substantive meeting with a potential client."
