Transaction Agency Question

California broker here. I am sure many other brokers here have been in similar situations so I’d appreciate any feedback or advice...

  • I am the landlord rep at a building
  • I have been working with a potential tenant for the space for a while
  • I have provided the tenant a reasonable amount of guidance and information regarding the property and potential deal with the intent to have them lease the space
  • One day, another broker contacted me stating that the potential tenant I have been working with is their client
  • Now, there is a conflict about to represents who.

How would you handle this? Who should rep the tenant? If the tenant rep is the broker that just surfaced, are they entitled to a commission given the circumstances?
