Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A broker is correcting a new licensee’s misunderstanding for the Indiana Real Estate Broker Exam involving license-required activity and broker affiliation and supervision. What should the licensee understand? (Item 73)
Answer choices
- A. Identify acts requiring a license when performed for compensation in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
- B. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- C. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- D. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
Correct Answer
A. Identify acts requiring a license when performed for compensation in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because license-required activity requires candidates to identify acts requiring a license when performed for compensation. The Indiana 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.
