Property Ownership and Land Use Practice Question

Question

A buyer and seller disagree about a transaction term involving government survey system. The parties need a practical answer before moving forward. Which answer best applies the rule? (Item 18)

Answer choices

  1. A. It can be ignored if the transaction is expected to close quickly.
  2. B. Recognize township, range, and section-based descriptions.
  3. C. It requires the licensee to favor the other party over the licensee’s own client.
  4. D. It is primarily a tax rule with no effect on brokerage practice.

Correct Answer

B. Recognize township, range, and section-based descriptions.

Explanation

The correct answer is B because government survey system requires candidates to recognize township, range, and section-based descriptions. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
