“I made an offer to buy a condo in La Jolla and lost out because I found out the seller’s agent told someone how much I offered. My agent said it’s called ‘shopping my offer’ and that it’s illegal. What can I do about this?”
Answer:
Nothing. Your agent is wrong.
The seller’s agent owes you no legal duty of confidentiality. So the agent has no liability to you for shopping your offer.
