Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving reasonable modification and New Jersey Real Estate Commission. What should the licensee understand? (Item 55)
Answer choices
- A. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- B. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- C. Distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
- D. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
Correct Answer
C. Distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because reasonable modification requires candidates to distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use. 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.
