Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A broker is correcting a new licensee’s misunderstanding for the Indiana Real Estate Broker Exam involving contract elements and broker affiliation and supervision. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 73)
Answer choices
- A. Identify offer, acceptance, consideration, capacity, consent, and lawful objective in a way that fits Indiana 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. Identify offer, acceptance, consideration, capacity, consent, and lawful objective in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because contract elements requires candidates to identify offer, acceptance, consideration, capacity, consent, and lawful objective. 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.
