Failure to Follow Ethical Business Practices

Risk: Agents caught engaging in fraudulent practices may face lawsuits or reputational damage.
Non-Disclosure of Property Details
Penalty: Legal liability, including fines and compensation claims by affected buyers.
Risk: Hiding important project details can cause loss of trust and credibility, affecting business growth.
Violating Consumer Protection Regulations
