Answer choices
- A. It shifts all responsibility to escrow and eliminates the broker’s duties.
- B. It makes oral promises enforceable in every real estate transaction.
- C. Apply attachment, adaptation, and intent tests to distinguish fixtures from personal property.
- D. It is optional whenever both parties verbally agree to proceed.
Correct Answer
C. Apply attachment, adaptation, and intent tests to distinguish fixtures from personal property.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because fixtures requires candidates to apply attachment, adaptation, and intent tests to distinguish fixtures from personal property. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
