In North Carolina, the Working with Real Estate Agents disclosure must be provided:
Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
At closing
A is incorrect because providing the disclosure at closing would be too late to serve its purpose of informing consumers about agency relationships early in the process. By then, the consumer may have already shared confidential information without understanding the agent's fiduciary duties.
At first substantial contact
Only if requested
C is incorrect because the disclosure is mandatory in North Carolina and must be provided at first substantial contact, regardless of whether the consumer specifically requests it. This requirement protects consumers by ensuring they receive this information proactively.
After contract signing
D is incorrect because the disclosure must be provided before any contract is signed. Waiting until after contract signing would violate the timing requirement and deprive consumers of important information during the initial stages of property consideration.
Why is this correct?
The correct answer is B because North Carolina law specifically requires the Working with Real Estate Agents disclosure to be provided at first substantial contact with a prospective buyer or seller. This timing ensures consumers understand agency relationships before providing any confidential information or entering into negotiations.
