Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the Arizona Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving market allocation and Arizona Department of Real Estate. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 158)
Answer choices
- A. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- B. Avoid dividing territories, customers, or property types with competitors in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
- C. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- D. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
Correct Answer
B. Avoid dividing territories, customers, or property types with competitors in a way that fits Arizona exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because market allocation requires candidates to avoid dividing territories, customers, or property types with competitors. 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.
