Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A property manager asks how a rule affects a rental property for the New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving blockbusting and New Jersey disclosure and consumer protection practice. What should the licensee understand? (Item 36)
Answer choices
- A. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- B. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- C. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because blockbusting requires candidates to identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics. 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.
