In real estate, a single agency relationship means that the broker can only represent one of the parties involved in the transaction, either the buyer or the seller, but he/she cannot represent both parties. Most broker-client relationships are single agencies, since that way the broker should pursuit his/her client's best interest.

In a dual agency relationship, the broker represents both he seller and the buyer.
