1.    The duties of a real estate brokerage firm, and the firm’s licensees, as specified in this chapter or in rules adopted to implement this chapter, supersede any fiduciary duties of that real estate brokerage firm and the firm’s licensees, to a person based on common-law principles of agency to the extent that those common-law fiduciary duties are inconsistent with the duties specified in this chapter or in rules adopted to implement this chapter.

2.    A client is not liable for a wrongful act, an error, an omission, or a misrepresentation made by a licensee in connection with the licensee providing brokerage services for the client, including brokerage services provided under a subagency relationship, unless the client knows or should have known of the wrongful act, error, omission, or misrepresentation or unless the licensee is repeating a misrepresentation made by the client. This subsection supersedes any conflicting common-law duty of the client.

    3.    A real estate brokerage firm that is providing brokerage services to a client is not liable for a wrongful act, an error, an omission, or a misrepresentation made by the client, listing agent of another real estate brokerage firm, or subagent of another real estate brokerage firm, unless the real estate brokerage firm knew or should have known of the wrongful act, error, omission, or misrepresentation or unless the client, listing agent of another real estate brokerage firm, or subagent of another real estate brokerage firm is repeating a misrepresentation made by the real estate brokerage firm.

4.    This section does not limit the liability of a licensee under section 43-23-11.1 nor of a client for substantial and willful misrepresentations made in reference to a real estate transaction. As used in this section, the term “real estate brokerage firm” includes the firm and brokers and agents who work for the firm.
