Fair Housing and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A broker reviews a transaction file with a new salesperson in a New York real estate transaction involving reasonable accommodation. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 41)
Answer choices
- A. Identify rule or practice changes needed for disability-related housing access when reasonable.
- B. A verbal understanding always replaces any written requirement in a real estate transaction.
- C. The licensee should avoid documenting the issue to reduce the chance of later questions.
- D. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when the issue is uncertain.
Correct Answer
A. Identify rule or practice changes needed for disability-related housing access when reasonable.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because reasonable accommodation requires candidates to identify rule or practice changes needed for disability-related housing access when reasonable. 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.
