Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving material facts and brokerage relationship disclosure. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 171)
Answer choices
- A. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- B. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- C. Disclose known facts affecting value, desirability, or party decision-making in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
- D. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
Correct Answer
C. Disclose known facts affecting value, desirability, or party decision-making in a way that fits Georgia exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because material facts requires candidates to disclose known facts affecting value, desirability, or party decision-making. 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.
