Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A seller is preparing to list a home for the New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving legal descriptions and New Jersey disclosure and consumer protection practice. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 113)
Answer choices
- A. Distinguish metes and bounds, lot and block, and survey-based descriptions in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
- B. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- 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
A. Distinguish metes and bounds, lot and block, and survey-based descriptions in a way that fits New Jersey exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because legal descriptions requires candidates to distinguish metes and bounds, lot and block, and survey-based descriptions. 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.
