Leasing and Property Management Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is studying a California practice scenario involving maintenance responsibility. Which response best protects the client and keeps the transaction compliant? (Item 72)
Answer choices
- A. It applies only to commercial property and never to residential transactions.
- B. It is controlled only by local custom rather than by law, contract, or professional duty.
- C. It is valid only when the buyer pays cash and no lender is involved.
- D. Distinguish emergency repair, routine maintenance, and owner authorization.
Correct Answer
D. Distinguish emergency repair, routine maintenance, and owner authorization.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because maintenance responsibility requires candidates to distinguish emergency repair, routine maintenance, and owner authorization. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
