Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Indiana Real Estate Broker Exam involving eminent domain and broker affiliation and supervision. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 91)
Answer choices
- A. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- B. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- C. Identify a government taking for public use with compensation in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
- D. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
Correct Answer
C. Identify a government taking for public use with compensation in a way that fits Indiana exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because eminent domain requires candidates to identify a government taking for public use with 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.
