Which of the following is the best action for Salesperson Miller if his client is buying a home with potential termite issues?

  1. Inform the client that termite treatment laws ensure the property is pest-free.

  2. Recommend the client conducts a specialized pest inspection.

  3. Advise the client to negotiate a lower price because termites are common.

  4. Suggest that the client avoids homes in wooded areas.

  5. Rely on the seller’s disclosure about past treatments.

  6. Ignore the matter and let the client decide after purchase.

The correct answer is: Recommend the client conducts a specialized pest inspection.

Recommending that the client conducts a specialized pest inspection is the best action for Salesperson Miller in this scenario because it directly addresses the potential issue of termites. A specialized pest inspection performed by a qualified professional is essential for accurately assessing the property for current infestations and the extent of any potential damage caused by termites. This proactive step ensures that the client is fully informed about the condition of the home before finalizing the purchase. By taking this action, Salesperson Miller demonstrates responsible representation of his client's best interests. It not only empowers the client to make informed decisions based on the inspection results but also safeguards against potential future expenses and damage related to termite infestations. This approach aligns with the ethical and professional standards expected in real estate transactions.
