Summary

The bill forces any home builder holding an open‑house event to display a conspicuous notice telling prospective buyers that the builder’s sales representative works for the builder, not the buyer. It also requires the builder and the sales rep to display registration numbers and certificates, and to include the same disclosure in written materials and the first purchase agreement. The goal is to make buyers aware of the sales rep’s limited loyalty and their right to obtain independent help.
