Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving reasonable modification and Massachusetts Board of Registration. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 151)
Answer choices
- A. The safest practice is to avoid written documentation so fewer questions are raised later.
- B. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when uncertain.
- C. Distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
- D. A verbal understanding always replaces a written real estate requirement.
Correct Answer
C. Distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because reasonable modification requires candidates to distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use. 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.
