Which of the following statements is correct regarding advertising of listed properties?

  1. A salesperson can use the term "Bank Foreclosure Sale" without seller approval.

  2. A salesperson does not need seller permission to take photos of the property for listing purposes.

  3. A salesperson cannot advertise that a well-known individual owns a listed property without their consent.

  4. A salesperson may apply dramatic enhancements to property photos without informing the seller.

  5. A salesperson can use the term "Immediate Sale Needed" without seller consent.

  6. A salesperson can link property advertisements to a social media page without restrictions.

The correct answer is: A salesperson cannot advertise that a well-known individual owns a listed property without their consent.

The statement that a salesperson cannot advertise that a well-known individual owns a listed property without their consent is correct because it aligns with privacy and ethical standards in real estate advertising. Even if the property is for sale, using the identity of a celebrity or public figure in marketing materials without their express consent may lead to legal issues, including claims of invasion of privacy or misappropriation of their likeness. It is important to respect individuals' rights regarding how their name and identity are used in advertising, thereby maintaining professionalism and adhering to real estate regulations. In contrast, other statements do not uphold the same level of ethical or legal considerations. For example, using categorical terms like "Bank Foreclosure Sale" may mislead potential buyers without proper context or approval. Similarly, taking photos of a property typically requires the owner's permission, as does applying enhancements to those photos. The use of terms like "Immediate Sale Needed" might create unnecessary pressure or misrepresent the seller's motivations without their consent. Lastly, linking advertisements to social media pages often involves consent from the property owner, and it is essential to consider privacy settings and permissions when promoting properties online.
