Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A buyer asks a licensee for an exam-focused explanation for the North Carolina Real Estate Broker Exam involving income approach and North Carolina Real Estate Commission. What should the licensee understand? (Item 78)
Answer choices
- A. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- B. Use income and capitalization concepts for income-producing property in a way that fits North Carolina exam practice.
- C. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- D. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
Correct Answer
B. Use income and capitalization concepts for income-producing property in a way that fits North Carolina exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because income approach requires candidates to use income and capitalization concepts for income-producing property. 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.
