Although CBS and Hank may have breached their fiduciary duty to Oliver as real estate agent, there is no evidence or written agreement explaining to prove who may be speaking the truth. Oliver, the seller, had the option to not follow through the contract if he had felt uncomfortable and shaky about the deal.
