Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question

Question

A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the North Carolina Real Estate Broker Exam involving risk documentation and provisional broker supervision. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 31)

Answer choices

  1. A. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
  2. B. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
  3. C. Use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes in a way that fits North Carolina exam practice.
  4. D. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.

Correct Answer

C. Use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes in a way that fits North Carolina exam practice.

Explanation

The correct answer is C because risk documentation requires candidates to use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes. The North Carolina 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.
