A property manager is preparing a written response involving steering. Which response best protects the client and keeps the transaction compliant? (Item 80)
Answer choices
- A. It allows a salesperson to act independently of the responsible broker.
- B. It shifts all responsibility to escrow and eliminates the broker’s duties.
- C. It makes oral promises enforceable in every real estate transaction.
- D. Recognize unlawful guidance based on protected-class characteristics.
Correct Answer
D. Recognize unlawful guidance based on protected-class characteristics.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because steering requires candidates to recognize unlawful guidance based on protected-class characteristics. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
