Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving advertising compliance and Massachusetts Board of Registration. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 172)
Answer choices
- A. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- B. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- C. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- D. Avoid misleading ads and include required brokerage or license identification in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Avoid misleading ads and include required brokerage or license identification in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because advertising compliance requires candidates to avoid misleading ads and include required brokerage or license identification. 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.
