Under Nevada law, when a licensee enters into a dual agency relationship, which of the following is required?

Correct Answer

B) Written informed consent from both the buyer and seller before the licensee may act as a dual agent

Under NRS 645.252, Nevada requires a licensee to obtain written informed consent from both the buyer and the seller before acting as a dual agent. Licensees also carry statutory confidentiality duties to each party as part of their obligations under Nevada law; however, these duties arise by statute and do not require a separate standalone confidentiality agreement document. Dual agency must be disclosed and consented to in writing before services are rendered.

Answer Options
A
No special disclosure or consent is needed as long as both parties are informed verbally
B
Written informed consent from both the buyer and seller before the licensee may act as a dual agent
C
A separate standalone confidentiality agreement signed by both parties as a distinct legal document
D
Approval from the Nevada Real Estate Division before proceeding with dual agency
