Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving specific performance and attorney review awareness. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 84)
Answer choices
- A. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- B. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- C. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- D. Recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because specific performance requires candidates to recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases. The New Jersey 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.
