Licensees who have no brokerage relationship with potential buyers/sellers must disclose their duties to buyers/sellers in writing before showing a property.

• A. Notice of representation
• B. Notice of nonrepresentation
• C. Notice of nonrepresentation and duties disclosure
• D. Notice of brokerage duties

Answer: (B)

When a licensee has no brokerage relationship with the prospective buyer or seller, it’s essential to clearly signal that lack of representation in writing before any property showing. The standard form used for this disclosure is the Notice of Nonrepresentation. It informs the consumer that the licensee is not representing them and outlines the duties the licensee will still observe, promoting transparency and protecting both parties.

This form is used specifically for situations where there is no brokerage relationship. The other options apply to different circumstances: a notice of representation is for cases where the licensee does represent a client; a combined notice of nonrepresentation and duties disclosure isn’t the recognized standard form for this scenario; and a notice of brokerage duties isn’t the typical disclosure used in this context.
