What is Elouise's licensing law violation in representing a buyer for a property she owns?

Elouise's violation stems from undisclosed dual agency, which occurs when a real estate agent simultaneously represents both the buyer and the seller in a transaction without informing both parties. In this situation, Elouise owns the property and is representing a buyer, which puts her in a position where she has conflicting interests.

By not disclosing her dual agency status, she fails to uphold the ethical obligations required of agents to act in a fair and transparent manner. This lack of disclosure can lead to a conflict of interest, where her motivations might not align with those of her buyer, potentially compromising the buyer's interests. Thus, failing to disclose this dual agency not only violates licensing laws but also undermines the trust and integrity essential in real estate transactions.

The other choices do not address the core issue of representing both the buyer and seller while failing to disclose that relationship, making them less relevant to the specific violation mentioned in the scenario.
