Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A property manager asks how a rule affects a rental property for the Arizona Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving dual agency or limited representation and desert-region water and environmental awareness. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 99)
Answer choices
- A. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- B. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- C. Recognize consent and neutrality duties when one brokerage is involved with both sides in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
- D. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
Correct Answer
C. Recognize consent and neutrality duties when one brokerage is involved with both sides in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because dual agency or limited representation requires candidates to recognize consent and neutrality duties when one brokerage is involved with both sides. The Arizona reference keeps the scenario tied to state licensing practice, while the other options rely on unsafe assumptions about oral custom, escrow, client preference, independent licensee authority, or ignoring written duties.
