Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving salesperson affiliation and Georgia Real Estate Commission. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 57)
Answer choices
- A. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
- B. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- C. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- D. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
Correct Answer
A. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because salesperson affiliation requires candidates to understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker. 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.
