Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

No confidentiality at all

A is incorrect because transaction brokers do owe some confidentiality, just not the same level as traditional agents. They must keep price and motivation confidential unless authorized to disclose.

B

Must keep price and motivation confidential unless authorized to disclose

Correct Answer
C

Same as single agent confidentiality

C is incorrect because transaction brokers do not owe the same level of confidentiality as single agents. Single agents owe full fiduciary duties including complete confidentiality, while transaction brokers have limited confidentiality.

D

Only written information is confidential

D is incorrect because confidentiality in real estate transactions applies to both written and verbal information regarding price and motivation, not just written documentation.

Why is this correct?

B is correct because Florida law specifically requires transaction brokers to maintain confidentiality regarding a party's price and motivation unless they receive authorization to disclose this information. This represents the 'limited confidentiality' owed by transaction brokers.
