BKeep the seller's personal circumstances confidential while still aggressively marketing the property✓ Correct
CLower the asking price immediately without the seller's consent
DTell prospective buyers that the seller will accept any offer

The single agent's duty of confidentiality requires protecting the seller's personal motivations (military transfer, urgency to sell) from buyers who could use this information to negotiate a lower price. The broker should market the property aggressively while keeping these details private.
