Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving license renewal and broker-salesperson supervision. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 35)
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 continuing education and renewal compliance duties in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
- D. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
Correct Answer
C. Identify continuing education and renewal compliance duties in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because license renewal requires candidates to identify continuing education and renewal compliance duties. The Massachusetts 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.
