Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is reviewing a practice scenario for the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving blockbusting and community association and closing-attorney practice awareness. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 84)
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. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because blockbusting requires candidates to identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics. 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.
