Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

At closing

Option A is incorrect because waiting until closing is too late. Disclosure must occur before any agreements are signed or property is shown, allowing clients to make informed decisions about representation throughout the entire transaction.

B

Before or at the time of entering into a listing or representation agreement

Correct Answer
C

Within 10 days of first contact

Option C is incorrect because Florida does not have a 10-day disclosure requirement. The timing must be before or at the time of entering into an agreement, not within a specific timeframe after first contact.

D

Only if requested by the party

Option D is incorrect because disclosure is mandatory in Florida, not optional. Brokers must proactively disclose their relationship regardless of whether the party requests it.

Why is this correct?

Option B is correct because Florida law specifically requires disclosure of brokerage relationships before or at the time of entering into a listing or representation agreement. This ensures clients understand their broker's role and fiduciary duties before committing to any agreement.
