Nevada licensee Diana is representing a buyer, Tom, in the purchase of a home listed by another broker. The seller's agent is Kevin. At the time of presenting Tom's offer, Kevin realizes that Diana is acting as a buyer's agent. Which disclosure does Kevin's brokerage owe to the seller regarding this transaction structure?

Correct Answer

C) Kevin must provide the seller with the Duties Owed by a Nevada Real Estate Licensee form confirming Kevin's exclusive representation

Under NRS 645.252, the Duties Owed by a Nevada Real Estate Licensee form must be provided to the seller (Kevin's client) to confirm the nature of Kevin's representation. Even in a straightforward seller's agency situation, the form is required to be provided at first substantive contact and should be on file. Presenting the offer is an appropriate moment to confirm that disclosure has been made and that Kevin's duties run exclusively to the seller in this transaction.

Answer Options
A
Kevin must provide the seller with a written dual agency consent form signed by both parties
B
Kevin must disclose to the seller that Diana represents the buyer and that no dual agency exists in Kevin's brokerage
C
Kevin must provide the seller with the Duties Owed by a Nevada Real Estate Licensee form confirming Kevin's exclusive representation
D
Kevin is not required to make any additional disclosure because each broker represents only one party
