Property Ownership and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A property manager is preparing a written response involving zoning. Which statement best describes zoning? (Item 110)
Answer choices
- A. It is valid only when the buyer pays cash and no lender is involved.
- B. Recognize zoning as an exercise of police power regulating land use.
- C. It prevents any later disclosure, even when new facts become known.
- D. It applies only to commercial property and never to residential transactions.
Correct Answer
B. Recognize zoning as an exercise of police power regulating land use.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because zoning requires candidates to recognize zoning as an exercise of police power regulating land use. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
