How should a salesperson respond if a buyer client is concerned about potential endangered species on a property?

  1. "Let's write up the offer! We had a nest like that when I was a kid, there's nothing to worry about."

  2. "Some birds are part of Ontario's endangered species list and that could impact your use of the land. We should contact the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry for guidance."

  3. "I've sold many cottages nearby and have never had an issue. Besides, it's up to the land owner to disclose any issues on the land, so it's not our concern."

  4. "Let's look at other properties, this one isn't worth our time."

  5. "We shouldn't worry about the birds, as most species can easily adapt."

  6. "Endangered species laws are rarely enforced, we can proceed."

The correct answer is: "Some birds are part of Ontario's endangered species list and that could impact your use of the land. We should contact the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry for guidance."

If a buyer client expresses concern about potential endangered species on a property, the most appropriate response is to prioritize their concerns and act in their best interest. Option B is the correct answer because it suggests reaching out to the appropriate authority, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, for guidance on the matter. This demonstrates a proactive and responsible approach to addressing the client's concerns and ensuring that all necessary steps are taken to address the issue of potential endangered species on the property. In comparison, the other options lack the diligence and professionalism needed in this situation. Option A dismisses the client's concerns and fails to address the potential issue seriously. Option C focuses on past experiences without considering the current client's worries. Option D suggests disregarding the property without properly addressing the concerns. Option E minimizes the importance of protecting endangered species. Option F downplays the significance of endangered species laws, which is not the ethical or legal approach a real estate professional should take.
