(b)Validity of a brokerage service agreement. A brokerage service agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the agreement expires or is otherwise terminated by an agreement of the parties.

(c)Providing services to more than one party to the transaction. When a firm provides brokerage services to more than one party to the transaction, the broker shall provide written notice to those parties that the broker is providing brokerage services to more than one party.

(d)Services provided to a tenant. When a broker provides brokerage services to a landlord under a property management agreement, the services provided to the tenant by the broker shall not be construed as creating a broker relationship between the broker and the tenant unless otherwise agreed to in writing; however, the broker owes to the tenant the duties of honesty and exercising reasonable skill and care.
