Dual Agency Situation
We recently put a property under contract. We made the offer directly through the seller's agent. Agent sent the agreement of sale today and somehow got the idea that she is a dual agent. We are not using an agent...how should I handle this?

If you didn't use your own agent, then by default the listing agent is your agent. Depending on the laws in your state, this could be a true "dual agency" or the agent would be in a position with you of a "transactional brokerage" classification. In either case, the agent represents you. Do you see an issue with this?
