Who would be least liable for misrepresentations made by the seller?

  1. The listing agent

  2. The buyer's agent

  3. The seller's attorney

  4. The selling agent

The correct answer is: The buyer's agent

This is because the listing agent and the selling agent both represent the seller, meaning they have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of the seller. Therefore, they could be held liable for any misrepresentations made by the seller. The seller's attorney is also responsible for ensuring all information is accurately represented, so they could also be held liable. The buyer's agent, on the other hand, represents the buyer and does not have a direct relationship with the seller. They are not responsible for the seller's misrepresentations and are therefore the least likely to be held liable.
