Leasing and Property Management Practice Question

Question

A property manager is preparing a written response involving implied warranty of habitability. Which statement is the most accurate exam answer? (Item 52)

Answer choices

1. A. It is primarily a tax rule with no effect on brokerage practice.
2. B. It removes the need for written disclosure if the licensee believes the client already knows.
3. C. It can be ignored if the transaction is expected to close quickly.
4. D. Recognize the landlord duty to maintain residential property fit for occupancy.

Correct Answer

D. Recognize the landlord duty to maintain residential property fit for occupancy.

Explanation

The correct answer is D because implied warranty of habitability requires candidates to recognize the landlord duty to maintain residential property fit for occupancy. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
