Which action should a licensee avoid regarding property dimensions?

A licensee should be cautious when pointing out property boundaries because doing so can lead to potential legal issues or disputes. Property boundaries are often determined by official surveys and legal descriptions, and if a licensee inaccurately represents these boundaries, it can mislead buyers and result in liability for the agent. Instead, it is more appropriate for a licensee to direct clients to consult surveyors or local zoning offices for accurate information regarding property lines.

In contrast, providing general square footage is acceptable as it offers potential buyers an idea of the property size without claiming precise measurements. Estimating the size of rooms is also a common practice, though it should be done carefully, typically with the understanding that estimates can be imprecise. Discussing potential property improvements is a constructive way to enhance the appeal of a property without making claims about its current dimensions. Therefore, avoiding the action of pointing out boundaries helps maintain professionalism and protects both the licensee and the client from misunderstandings and disputes.
