Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is reviewing a practice scenario for the Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving broker supervision and broker-salesperson supervision. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 128)
Answer choices
- A. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- B. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- C. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- D. Recognize responsible broker oversight of affiliated licensees in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Recognize responsible broker oversight of affiliated licensees in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because broker supervision requires candidates to recognize responsible broker oversight of affiliated licensees. 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.
