What should a broker do upon receiving two offers on a house listed for sale?

Accept the highest offer
Accept the first offer received
Present both offers to the seller as soon as possible
Consult with a lawyer before taking any action

The correct answer is: Present both offers to the seller as soon as possible

It is important for a broker to present both offers to the seller as soon as possible because the seller has the right to choose which offer to accept. By only accepting the highest offer or the first offer received, the broker is not giving the seller the opportunity to compare and make an informed decision on which offer is best for them. Consulting with a lawyer may not be necessary unless there are legal concerns, but it should not be the first action taken when receiving multiple offers.
