Final answer:

The Residential Buyer/Tenant Representation Agreement details a broker's obligations within a specific paragraph, which isn't mentioned in the question provided. The sections of a rental agreement mentioned are revised for clarity in the spirit of the Plain Writing Act, simplifying the language and making it more accessible for renters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The broker's obligations in the Residential Buyer/Tenant Representation Agreement are typically outlined in a specific paragraph within the contract. The provided information does not clearly specify the exact paragraph in such an agreement, nor does it provide the full context of the broker's obligations as they might be described in the agreement's paragraphs. However, I can inform you that broker obligations can generally include duties like representing the client's best interests, providing accurate information, and disclosing all material facts.

To address the sections of a rental agreement provided, let's revise them with the Plain Writing Act of 2010 in mind:

If the owner cannot give the resident the keys to the residence on the start date due to damage, the previous resident has not moved out, or any other reason, either the owner or resident can cancel this contract by telling the other in writing. If the contract is cancelled, nobody is to blame, and all payments will be returned in full. If the contract is not cancelled, it will start on the day the resident moves in and the rent will be adjusted to start from that day.

When the lease term ends, it will automatically continue month to month. Either the owner or the resident can end it by giving a 30-day written notice. If the law says you need a good reason to end the lease, then that reason must be written in the notice. The residence is only officially empty when all personal things are removed, and keys and other items given for use are returned. If the resident stays past the end date or leaves things behind, they could be charged extra rent and fees, especially if this causes the owner to lose new tenants.
