What is required from a realtor who intends to buy property they are selling?

Nothing, they can proceed without disclosure
A verbal notice of intent to the buyer
A written disclosure of their real estate status to the seller
A notification to the seller's attorney

The correct answer is: A written disclosure of their real estate status to the seller

A realtor who intends to buy property they are selling is required to provide a written disclosure of their real estate status to the seller. This requirement is in place to ensure transparency and protect the interests of all parties involved in the transaction. By disclosing their status as a licensed real estate professional, the realtor helps to avoid potential conflicts of interest and ensures that the seller is fully informed about who they are dealing with. This written disclosure serves multiple purposes: it clarifies the realtor's role in the transaction, informs the seller that the realtor has a personal stake in the sale, and allows the seller to make informed decisions regarding negotiations and offers. Being transparent in real estate transactions helps to build trust and fortifies the ethical standards of the profession. In scenarios where realtors do not disclose their intentions, it could lead to legal repercussions or ethical violations, undermining the integrity of the transaction and potentially harming the seller.
