Agency
A Florida transaction broker discovers their seller client has accepted another offer while the broker is still showing the property. The broker should:
AContinue showing the property without notifying buyers
BImmediately stop showing the property and inform prospective buyers that the property is under contract✓ Correct
CWait until the second offer falls through before notifying anyone
DOnly tell buyers if they make an offer
Explanation
Once a seller has accepted an offer (creating an executory contract), the broker should stop showing the property as available and inform prospective buyers that the property is under contract. Continuing to market an under-contract property as available is misleading.
