Indiana Code Title 25. Professions and Occupations § 25-34.1-10-12.5

Sec. 12.5. (a) An individual licensee affiliated with a broker company represents only the client with which the licensee is working in an in-house agency relationship.  A client represented by an individual licensee affiliated with a broker company is represented only by that licensee to the exclusion of all other licensees.  A managing broker does not represent any party in such transactions unless the managing broker has an agency relationship to personally represent a client.

(b) A licensee who personally represents both the seller and buyer or both the landlord and tenant in a real estate transaction is a limited agent and is required to comply with the provisions of this chapter governing limited agents.

(c) A licensee representing a client in an in-house agency relationship owes the client duties and obligations set forth in this chapter and shall not disclose material or confidential information obtained from the client to other licensees, except to the managing broker for the purpose of seeking advice or assistance for the client's benefit.

(d) A broker company, a managing broker, and any affiliated licensee shall take reasonable and necessary care to protect any material or confidential information disclosed by a client to the client's in-house agent.

(e) In all in-house agency relationships, a broker company, a managing broker, and an individual licensee possess only actual knowledge and information.  There is no imputation of agency, knowledge, or information among or between clients, the broker company, the managing broker, and licensees.  Information contained in records of prior transactions maintained by the broker company concerning any existing or previous adverse material facts or risks with respect to real property may not be imputed to a broker or affiliated licensee unless the broker or affiliated licensee had actual knowledge of any adverse material facts or risks with respect to the real property.  A person may not bring a cause of action against a broker or licensee for failure to disclose adverse material facts or risks if the cause of action is based on imputed knowledge of the adverse material facts or risks.
