Agency
A NH seller's agent who learns that the buyer has a higher budget than revealed in their offer should:
ADisclose the budget information to the seller to maximize the sale price
BKeep this information confidential, as it was shared in confidence during agency-related discussions✓ Correct
CShare the information only if the buyer's agent consents
DReport the information to NHREC
Explanation
If this was learned through unauthorized means or overheard, the agent faces an ethical dilemma. In NH dual agency or transaction brokerage, confidentiality rules still apply. The correct standard is that confidential buyer information should not be shared with the seller.
