Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A broker is correcting a new licensee’s misunderstanding for the New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving specific performance and New Jersey Real Estate Commission. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 120)
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.
