Which of these is NOT one of the things license-holders must do, according to TREC?

• A. present all offers promptly
• B. disclose known defects
• C. maintain client confidentiality
• D. get a client the best deal, no matter how

Answer: (D)

Licenses holders operate under fiduciary duties to their clients, which include presenting all offers promptly, disclosing known defects, and keeping client information confidential. These duties ensure fair, honest, and confidential handling of a transaction and protect the client's interests. The idea of “getting a client the best deal, no matter how” isn’t a requirement and, in fact, can conflict with ethical and legal standards. A license holder must pursue the best terms for the client within those standards—without engaging in improper or coercive tactics, misrepresentation, or withholding important information. So that statement isn’t something license-holders are obligated to do, making it the item that doesn’t belong.
