Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving salesperson affiliation and Georgia Real Estate Commission. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 111)
Answer choices
- A. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- B. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- C. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
- D. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
Correct Answer
C. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C 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.
