Agency
A NH seller's agent who learns the seller is going through a divorce and is 'desperate to sell quickly' should:
AShare this information with buyers to help facilitate a faster sale
BKeep this confidential information and not disclose it to buyers, as it is the seller's private information✓ Correct
CDisclose it only if a buyer directly asks
DRecord the information in the MLS listing notes
Explanation
A seller's agent owes confidentiality to the seller. The seller's financial motivation (divorce, desperation to sell) is confidential information that must not be shared with buyers. Disclosing it would weaken the seller's negotiating position and breach the agent's fiduciary duty.
