Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
An agent compares two similar exam concepts for the Arizona Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving fiduciary loyalty and Arizona subdivision and disclosure practice. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 22)
Answer choices
- A. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- B. Put the client’s interests ahead of the licensee’s personal interest in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
- C. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- D. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
Correct Answer
B. Put the client’s interests ahead of the licensee’s personal interest in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because fiduciary loyalty requires candidates to put the client’s interests ahead of the licensee’s personal interest. 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.
