I definitely recall something about promotions needing to be fair. B sounds right to me since it ties the gift to listing with the broker.

I remember discussing how promotions can be tricky. I feel like A might be the right answer because it seems unfair to those who don’t list during that time.

I think this question is similar to one we practiced about incentives and how they can affect fair competition. I’m leaning towards B, but I’m not completely sure.
