Fair Housing and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
An agent notices a possible issue before a contract is signed in a New York real estate transaction involving property condition disclosure. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 43)
Answer choices
- A. Escrow automatically assumes all brokerage disclosure and agency duties.
- B. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- C. Recognize required seller disclosure concepts and limitations in residential transfers.
- D. The party who complains first automatically receives the legal remedy requested.
Correct Answer
C. Recognize required seller disclosure concepts and limitations in residential transfers.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because property condition disclosure requires candidates to recognize required seller disclosure concepts and limitations in residential transfers. The other options rely on unsafe assumptions about custom, oral agreement, escrow, client preference, or independent salesperson authority and do not reflect sound New York exam practice.
