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