What happened to your fiduciary duty to try and make a continuous good faith effort to secure a buyer?

It's spelled out in my Listing Agreement and Buyers' Agency agreement:

"In performance of fiduciary duties and good faith efforts on behalf of the client, it is agreed that Agent will not be required to shave, pluck, wax, nip, tuck, or otherwise defile his perfect God-given physique in any way, although none of the above will be construed to prevent Agent from unilaterally choosing to eat free donuts, should said donuts be available."

Everybody has that clause in their agreements, don't they?

We don't do them for every single listing and also for many of the reasons others have mentioned - just taking listing photos I've gone into houses and say, for the love of God man pick up those Haines and PLEASE keep house orderly when it officially hits the market! Anyway, on projects listed exclusively with us or high end homes, commercial, yes I'll do a VT - there are enough pics on the website to give a 'potential' buyer a good feel for the property. Then, if they want to see additional pics, they can write and we'll send them more since we always take a ton of photos to begin with.

You might want to add in unilaterally choosing to eat free donuts, sandwiches, cookies or other sustenance or libation should said sustenance or libation be available...

Don't forget about the other goodies...
