What are the three steps of the agency disclosure in proper chronological order?
Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
Elect, confirm, disclose.
Option A (Elect, confirm, disclose) is incorrect because parties cannot elect an agency relationship before confirming the available options. This reverses the first two steps of the proper sequence.
Confirm, elect, disclose
Disclose, confirm, disclose.
Option C (Disclose, confirm, disclose) is incorrect because it repeats 'disclose' and fails to properly sequence the steps. The process doesn't involve two disclosures with confirmation in between.
Disclose, elect, confirm.
Option D (Disclose, elect, confirm) is incorrect because it places 'disclose' first, when in fact the agent must first confirm their licensing status and available agency options before any disclosure occurs.
Why is this correct?
Option B (Confirm, elect, disclose) correctly represents the chronological order of agency disclosure in California. The agent first confirms their licensing and agency options, then the parties elect their preferred agency relationship, and finally they confirm this election in writing.
