Base from my experience, it is "arms length". Best way, prepare a disclosure signed by eyerbody to protect you and everybody. Let ASC accept it if it is "arm length" on their definition.
Good luck!
Thank you Kathy Lee, this is exactly why I posted this. I heard this happening to another agent as well. I did explain this to the buyers agent and gave him the opportunity to have someone else rewrite the offer, but he declined and said it should be fine. So we will just have to wait and see what ASC says.
Putting this in the newsletter today
Any relationship between any party in the transaction must be disclosed. An example of a non-arms length transaction would be a son purchasing a home from his parents, employer, etc. Any time a relationship crosses the lines between the buyer and the seller, it becomes non-arms length. Non-arms length is also known as "identy of interest."

You need to disclose to ASC the relationship to the buyers agent.
I would either disclose it in the arms length or draft an additional amendment stating the situation
