Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving reasonable accommodation and broker-salesperson supervision. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 22)
Answer choices
- A. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- B. Identify rule or policy changes needed for disability access when reasonable in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
- C. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- D. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
Correct Answer
B. Identify rule or policy changes needed for disability access when reasonable in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because reasonable accommodation requires candidates to identify rule or policy changes needed for disability access when reasonable. 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.
