Marissa is an agent holding her registration certificate with ABC Real Estate. Graham is looking to purchase an apartment in an inner-city suburb and has shown keen interest in a small apartment that Marissa has listed. Graham tells Marissa that he is "looking for an apartment in a quiet area" as he works night shift and needs to sleep during day, especially on weekends.

Marissa is excited because this apartment has been listed for over two months and she really wants to close the sale before she goes on holiday next month. However, she knows that the apartment block backs on to a street that has a church. Each Sunday morning, church bells are rung and the area can become quiet noisy as people come and go.

(a) Should Marissa tell Graham about the church? Which section of the Act relates to this situation? Discuss the legal and ethical issues relating to this scenario. What advice would you give Marissa?
