Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving agency disclosure and community association and closing-attorney practice awareness. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 98)
Answer choices
- A. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- B. Provide agency relationship disclosures when required by state practice in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
- C. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- D. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
Correct Answer
B. Provide agency relationship disclosures when required by state practice in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because agency disclosure requires candidates to provide agency relationship disclosures when required by state practice. The Georgia reference keeps the scenario tied to state licensing practice, while the other options rely on unsafe assumptions about oral custom, escrow, client preference, independent licensee authority, or ignoring written duties.
