AMAN JAIN (CHARLOTTE) – By Consent, the Commission suspended the broker license of Jain for a period of 5 years, effective June 30, 2026. The Commission then stayed the suspension in its entirety upon certain conditions. The Commission found that Jain represented to his buyer clients that they should place an offer on a home substantially over the listing price because the property already had multiple offers pending, when in fact there were no other offers pending on the home. The buyers paid more than the listing price for the property.
KATIE PRENDERGAST (ASHEVILLE)- By Consent, the Commission reprimanded Prendergast effective June 24, 2026. The Commission found that Prendergast represented her seller-client in a residential real estate transaction. A potential buyer made an offer which was accepted by the seller. During the due diligence period of the transaction, the buyer conducted a radon test that found an average radon level of 5.7 pCi/L, and Prendergast was informed of the finding. Subsequently, that potential buyer terminated the contract. Prendergast relisted the property, and a subsequent buyer entered into a purchase agreement for the property. Prendergast failed to disclose the radon test results prior to the offer to purchase; she disclosed them approximately two (2) days after the offer was executed.
