Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question

Question

A seller is preparing to list a home for the Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving variance and Massachusetts Board of Registration. What should the licensee understand? (Item 130)

Answer choices

1. A. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
2. B. Recognize relief from zoning rules due to property-specific hardship in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.
3. C. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
4. D. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.

Correct Answer

B. Recognize relief from zoning rules due to property-specific hardship in a way that fits Massachusetts exam practice.

Explanation

The correct answer is B because variance requires candidates to recognize relief from zoning rules due to property-specific hardship. 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.
