Under North Carolina Real Estate Commission (NCREC) rules, a broker may begin working with a buyer under oral buyer agency but must have a signed, written buyer agency agreement in place before presenting any offer on behalf of that buyer. Oral agency cannot be exclusive or have a defined time frame. Additionally, the broker must provide the Working with Real Estate Agents Disclosure at first substantial contact. Therefore, oral buyer agency is permissible temporarily but must convert to a written agreement before drafting or presenting an offer, making option C correct.
