Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A broker is correcting a new licensee’s misunderstanding for the Indiana Real Estate Broker Exam involving risk documentation and Indiana Real Estate Commission. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 63)
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. Use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
- D. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
Correct Answer
C. Use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because risk documentation requires candidates to use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes. 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.
