Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A seller is preparing to list a home for the Arizona Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving commission payment and Arizona subdivision and disclosure practice. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 86)
Answer choices
- A. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- B. Recognize that affiliated licensees are usually paid through their broker in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
- C. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- D. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
Correct Answer
B. Recognize that affiliated licensees are usually paid through their broker in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because commission payment requires candidates to recognize that affiliated licensees are usually paid through their broker. 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.
