What’s in a name??? Everything
If someone was to ask you about Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr., you may ask who is that? But if someone was to say the name “Buzz” Aldrin, you would recognize that he was one of the first two humans to land on the Moon. Simply put, a name is everything. But under current law advertising under the name you go by, the one your friends, family and your clients know you as, could be a violation of statute and Arizona Department of Real Estate rule.

Legal Hotline
- The landlord and tenant execute an Arizona REALTORS® Residential Lease Agreement for a one-year term expiring on February 28^th. The tenant advised the landlord that he was vacating the premises on February 26^thand had all of his personal effects removed by February 28^th. Did the lease terminate on February 28^th?
- The buyer and seller entered into an Arizona REALTORS® Residential Resale Real Estate Purchase Contract. After the inspection was completed and before the inspection period was over, the buyer submitted a Buyer’s Inspection Notice and Seller’s Response (“BINSR”) that did not identify any items disapproved. Rather, the BINSR on Page 1 said “see attachment.” The attachment was an addendum reducing the purchase price by $7,000.00 signed by the buyer. The seller is unwilling to reduce the price by $7,000 and rejected the proposed addendum. May the buyer cancel based on the seller’s rejection of the addendum?
