If a property is listed and the seller has not authorized internet advertising, what is the agent required to do?

Ignore the seller's preference and list it online for better exposure.
Post the listing online because it is in the seller’s best interest.
Advertise the listing using offline methods only.
Seek permission later if online advertising shows benefits.

The correct answer is: Advertise the listing using offline methods only.

When a property is listed and the seller has explicitly stated that they have not authorized internet advertising, the agent is required to respect the seller's preference. This means that the agent should advertise the listing using offline methods only, as indicated in option C. This is an important aspect of agency law and the duty of loyalty that agents owe to their clients. By respecting the seller's instructions about where and how the property should be advertised, the agent upholds their fiduciary duty and acts in the best interest of the client. Options A, B, and D are not the correct choices in this scenario because they involve going against the seller's explicit instructions regarding internet advertising. Real estate agents are obligated to follow the seller's directives, unless they are in violation of the law or ethical standards. Therefore, it is crucial for agents to adhere to the wishes of their clients regarding how the property is marketed.
