Property Ownership and Land Use Practice Question

Question

A listing agent notices a potential compliance issue involving lot and block descriptions. Which response best protects the client and keeps the transaction compliant? (Item 57)

Answer choices

1. A. Identify subdivision map references as legal descriptions.
2. B. It prevents any later disclosure, even when new facts become known.
3. C. It applies only to commercial property and never to residential transactions.
4. D. It is controlled only by local custom rather than by law, contract, or professional duty.

Correct Answer

A. Identify subdivision map references as legal descriptions.

Explanation

The correct answer is A because lot and block descriptions requires candidates to identify subdivision map references as legal descriptions. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
