Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is reviewing a practice scenario for the Michigan Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving accounting and seller disclosure practice. What should the licensee understand? (Item 133)
Answer choices
- A. Properly handle and account for money, documents, and property entrusted to the licensee in a way that fits Michigan exam practice.
- 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. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
Correct Answer
A. Properly handle and account for money, documents, and property entrusted to the licensee in a way that fits Michigan exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because accounting requires candidates to properly handle and account for money, documents, and property entrusted to the licensee. The Michigan 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.
