Fair Housing and Practice Practice Question
Question
A buyer and seller disagree about a transaction term involving market allocation. The parties need a practical answer before moving forward. Which answer best applies the rule? (Item 55)
Answer choices
- A. It is primarily a tax rule with no effect on brokerage practice.
- B. It removes the need for written disclosure if the licensee believes the client already knows.
- C. Recognize illegal agreements to divide territories or customers.
- D. It can be ignored if the transaction is expected to close quickly.
Correct Answer
C. Recognize illegal agreements to divide territories or customers.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because market allocation requires candidates to recognize illegal agreements to divide territories or customers. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
