Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A property manager asks how a rule affects a rental property for the Michigan Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving market allocation and Michigan occupational licensing regulation. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 158)
Answer choices
- A. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- B. Avoid dividing territories, customers, or property types with competitors in a way that fits Michigan exam practice.
- C. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- D. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
Correct Answer
B. Avoid dividing territories, customers, or property types with competitors in a way that fits Michigan exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because market allocation requires candidates to avoid dividing territories, customers, or property types with competitors. 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.
