Which of the following would the Registrar consider misleading in an advertisement?

  1. Advertising a lower remuneration rate than a fixed local rate without evidence.

  2. Claiming the number of homes sold with details.

  3. Using the term 'team' with size and member identities.

  4. Stating commission savings with calculation details.

The correct answer is: Stating commission savings with calculation details.

The Registrar would find the advertisement misleading if it states commission savings with calculation details without proper justification or clarity on how those savings are derived. This is because such statements can create misunderstandings or misrepresentations about the actual financial implications for clients, especially if the calculations are not transparent or based on accurate data. In real estate advertising, all claims must be substantiated to ensure that consumers receive honest and clear information. Misleading claims can not only confuse potential clients but also undermine the integrity of the real estate profession. Therefore, if an advertisement makes specific claims about commission savings, those claims must be verifiable and presented in a way that does not mislead the audience. In contrast, lower remuneration rates and other details mentioned in the other options might not inherently mislead if they can be supported with evidence or clarity.
