Fair Housing and Practice Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is studying a California practice scenario involving blockbusting. Which response best protects the client and keeps the transaction compliant? (Item 6)
Answer choices
- A. It can be ignored if the transaction is expected to close quickly.
- B. Identify inducing sales by suggesting protected-class neighborhood changes.
- C. It requires the licensee to favor the other party over the licensee’s own client.
- D. It is primarily a tax rule with no effect on brokerage practice.
Correct Answer
B. Identify inducing sales by suggesting protected-class neighborhood changes.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because blockbusting requires candidates to identify inducing sales by suggesting protected-class neighborhood changes. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
